Errors with Selenium and Python and Using Chrome Driver

Question

EDIT: The code is failing after the first line. I have reinstalled Google Chrome, reinstalled the webdriver, and selenium, however I can't seem to resolve the issue. The screenshot is attached. I'm also Image here! MacOS. Thank you @Dimitri T and @Omer Tekbiyik for your assistance thus far!

I am trying to use selenium and python using chromedriver, but I can't seem to get past a string of errors. I've troubleshooted using just about everything. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

from selenium import webdriver
# os.environ["webdriver.chrome.driver"] = chromedriver
# browser = webdriver.Chrome(chromedriver)
# browser.get("https://newclasses.nyu.edu/portal/site/a3aa9fb7-82a4-4b7e-# ac96-2e50b60cbbbc/tool/b81f9600-6b1e-452f-9e1a-ea4af0d2fb4a/main")

# title = browser.title
# print(title)

Here is the Code I have tried. I've also tried this...

from selenium import webdriver

# browser = webdriver.Chrome()
# browser.get("https://newclasses.nyu.edu/portal/site/a3aa9fb7-82a4-4b7e-# # ac96-2e50b60cbbbc/tool/b81f9600-6b1e-452f-9e1a-ea4af0d2fb4a/main")

# title = browser.title
# print(title)

I expect it to launch a webpage, however, I just get a string of errors.

Answer 1

You just need to add driver path like:

driver_path = r'your driver path'
browser = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=driver_path)

and get titles like :

from selenium import webdriver

driver_path = r'your path'
browser = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=driver_path)
browser.get("https://newclasses.nyu.edu/portal/site/a3aa9fb7-82a4-4b7e-ac96-2e50b60cbbbc/tool/b81f9600-6b1e-452f-9e1a-ea4af0d2fb4a/main")
title = browser.title
print(title)

Output :

1. Let's start clean. Install Selenium package using PIP .

    pip install -U selenium 

2. Download and install Chrome
3. Download Chromedriver (make sure to choose the matching version for your Chrome browser version)

4. Amend your code to look like:

    from selenium import webdriver browser = webdriver.Chrome("c:\\\\path\\\\to\\\\chromedriver.exe") browser.get( "https://newclasses.nyu.edu/portal/site/a3aa9fb7-82a4-4b7e-ac96-2e50b60cbbbc/tool/b81f9600-6b1e-452f-9e1a-ea4af0d2fb4a/main") title = browser.title print(title) browser.quit() 

5. That's it, your script should be working now:

I found a solution to this problem! After experimenting with Jupyter I found a way to make this script work!

sudo -H pip3 install -U selenium
sudo -H pip3 install urllib3
sudo easy_install selenium 

This works perfectly and also running my script in python3 allowed me to successfully run this script. Thank you, everyone, for everything!
