Python selenium web驱动程序错误

Question

It seems that loading the profile keeps failing even though I am specifying the path location of the profile it seems to be loading from a different path (according to the traceback). Am I missing something here?

CODE

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.firefox_profile import FirefoxProfile

profile = FirefoxProfile('/Users/path/Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles/9s60syvx.default')
browser = webdriver.Firefox(firefox_profile=profile)

Firefox Version = 48.0.2

selenium Version = 2.53.6

OS Version = OSX 10.11.6

The simplest way is to move the geckodriver binary to the directory you already have in the PATH :

mv geckodriver /usr/local/bin

If you want to have it at a different location, please note that the PATH has to point to the directory that contains the geckodriver and not to the binary itself. To add the the custom directory to the PATH you should do it in the code because you probably don't want to have it system wide.

os.environ["PATH"] += os.pathsep + 'path/to/dir/containing/geckodriver/'

After that, do the usual stuff you want.

firefox_capabilities = DesiredCapabilities.FIREFOX
firefox_capabilities['marionette'] = True
firefox_capabilities['binary'] = '/usr/bin/firefox'
profile = FirefoxProfile('/path/to/your/profile')
browser = webdriver.Firefox(capabilities=firefox_capabilities
                            firefox_profile=profile)
