For Headless reason in amazon ec2, I am using PyVirtualDisplay Since there is no display in server.
when i am running my project, I am getting the exception

How it is supposed to solve?
How to handle such dialog boxes in selenium in python?
Please run the following code before and after doing driver.get():
driver.execute_script('window.onbeforeunload = function() {}')
It should work. I haven't checked but Firefox website should have more details on this event.
Basically you are resetting the handler in the webpage that gives that modal dialog box. So you won't see it displayed. This approach pretty much solved my issue.
