I know this question has been asked multiply times before but none of the solutions helps in my case.
I successfully did this no problem 3 months ago but am getting stuck now without changing anything which baffles me a lot and i really don't know what to do!
1:basic info:
win 7
Rselenium standalone 3.13.0 (tried 3.9.1 not working,used to work 3 months ago)
chrome version v64.0.3282.140 (32bit)
chromedriver 2.37 should be compatible.(also tried 2.38, 2.39 not work)
(I even updated chrome to 67 and use chromedriver 2.40 not work and then downgrade back)
2:launch Rselenium:
java -Dwebdriver.chrome.driver="C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chromedriver.exe" -jar D:\selenium-server-standalone-3.13.0.jar
up and running no problem see the bottom pic-cmd snapshot
3:Rcode:
remDr <- remoteDriver(remoteServerAddr = "127.0.0.1"
, port = 4444
, browserName = "chrome")
remDr$open()
3 months ago it would launch a chrome page, but now the error shows:
Selenium message:Unable to create new service: ChromeDriverService
Build info: version: '3.13.0', revision: '2f0d292', time: '2018-06-25T15:32:19.891Z'

Driver info: driver.version: unknown
Error: Summary: SessionNotCreatedException
Detail: A new session could not be created.
Further Details: run errorDetails method
I am not sure if it's because it doesn't detect the chrome version or the chromedriver version? But when I type chromedriver -version it shows the version is 2.37.
Please help!

I have had RSelenium fail with messages like that. I don't know the cause, but what worked to fix it was to delete all the downloaded driver files. On MacOS, they are in the ~/Library/Application Support/binman_* directories.
The next time I ran it, they were reinstalled automatically, and things worked fine again for a year or more.
Had the same issue. Yesterday everything was working fine, today also this Selenium message:Unable to create new service: ChromeDriverService error.
I saw a new chrome driver had downloaded overnight (on windows can be found in AppData/Local/binman/binman_chromedriver/win32/ - see picture below).
Deleting it did not help for me, because the non-working driver would be redownloaded again. It is not very pretty, but what worked for me was copying the chromedriver.exe file from the 2.42 folder into the 70.0.3538.16 folder.
I only had this issue with windows 8.1. On windows 10 the new driver did not cause issues.

I want to set up rstudio-server on an iMac with support for multiple users and remote login. I followed the steps in the INSTALL tutorial: I built the source, set up the configuration files and the launchd daemon. At first, it works fine, but after some time, I get these warnings/errors when I plot:
2022-06-09 08:02:29.438 rsession[3050:139329] XType: failed to connect - Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=4099 "The connection to service named com.apple.fonts was invalidated: failed at lookup with error 3 - No such process." UserInfo={NSDebugDescription=The connection to service named com.apple.fonts was invalidated: failed at lookup with error 3 - No such process.}
2022-06-09 08:02:29.438 rsession[3050:139329] Font server protocol version mismatch (expected:5 got:0), falling back to local fonts
2022-06-09 08:02:29.438 rsession[3050:139329] XType: unable to make a connection to the font daemon!
2022-06-09 08:02:29.438 rsession[3050:139329] XType: XTFontStaticRegistry is enabled as fontd is not available.
Then I can't plot any more unless I restart R and re-run my code. Do you know what could be the issue? I could not get any help when opening an issue on the rstudio-server github since MacOS is not officially supported.
I was also looking at running rstudio-server via docker, but I couldn't find a good way to map the user namespace from macOS to the container.
Any help or suggestion would be greatly appreciated!
EDIT: It seems I was able to solve the issue by launching the fontd daemon with:
sudo launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchAgents/com.apple.fontd.useragent.plist
This seems like an issue with the MacOS font daemon, not with RStudio itself.
Someone reported a similar issue on PhantomJS. Rebooting resolved it for them.
This answer reported the same error for a different build, and they were able to resolve it by installing the correct "Apple Worldwide Developer Relations Certification Authority" in Keychain:
The one I had had an expiration date of February 2023. I deleted that one and went here, downloaded the one called "Worldwide Developer Relations - G3 (Expiring 02/20/2030 00:00:00 UTC)", then retried the build and it worked.
I have used RSelenium to scrape webpages without any issue for over a year including updating Chrome regularly. Today I updated Chrome to its latest version (89.0.4389.82). After the update, RSelenium can't connect to the server and times out. Here is the error message:
Selenium message:Timed out waiting for driver server to start.
System info: host: 'xxxx', ip: xxx, os.name: 'Mac OS X', os.arch: 'x86_64', os.version: '10.15.5', java.version: '1.8.0_60'
Driver info: driver.version: unknown
Could not open chrome browser.
I also don't know why it says driver version unknown. I followed the guides on other simular questions and updated chromedriver to version 89.0.4389.23.
Here is the code that used to work before updating chrome:
driver <- rsDriver(browser=c("chrome"), chromever="87.0.4280.88", port = 4568)
Here is what I'm working with now which results in an error:
driver <- rsDriver(browser=c("chrome"), chromever="89.0.4389.23", port = as.integer(4568))
I was able to fix this thanks to this info I found. You can visit the link for more detailed information.
rsDriver has a boolean argument check that is TRUE by default. Its official description:
If TRUE check the versions of selenium available and the versions of
associated drivers (chromever, geckover, phantomver, iedrver). If new
versions are available they will be downloaded.
This downloads both chromedriver_mac64.zip and chromedriver_mac64_m1.zip. The chromedriver installed from the m1 file on Macs. What I did to fix the problem was go to
~/Library/Application Support/binman_chromedriver/mac64/89.0.4389.23
and then delete the m1 file and chromedriver. Then unzip chromedriver_mac64.zip to get the correct chromedriver. Go back to R and run rsDriver with the argument check set to false:
driver <- rsDriver(browser=c("chrome"), chromever="87.0.4280.88", port = 4568, check = FALSE)
This made it work for me
I built a webscraper using RSelenium and Chrome. It used to work. Suddenly, it won't even open the browser!
I ran:
rD <- rsDriver(port=sample(4000:5999,1),
browser="chrome",
chromever = "88.0.4324.96",
extraCapabilities = eCaps)
And I receive the message:
Selenium message:Timed out waiting for driver server to start.

Has anyone else seen this issue --where Chrome 88 keeps timing out trying to reach the driver on a Mac? Do you have a solution? I saw some people saying they experienced this and that switching to Firefox solved it. Firefox does, at minimum, open the browser for me. However, Firefox is too slow. I can run tests manually only --anytime I try to automate them, Firefox slows down to an absurd degree and on the FIRST line of code. If I run literally the exact same single command manually, it works just fine. Any recommendations to either get chrome to run again or speed up firefox?
Appears to be a typo in the configuration part and you need to replace chromever with chromedriver.
On Linux, the RSelenium/Selenium seems to be behaving erratically. I start the server manually and it seems to start up fine. Sometimes I am able to connect to it from my R session and other times I get an error. I cannot yet pinpoint the cause: the same script seems to work sometimes and not other times. Any ideas?
Here is the output from starting the server:

Other times, running the exact same script everything proceeds successfully. It could be a difference of what computer node actually executes the script but I cannot tell what the problem is when it will not connect.

I faced same issue and try to run above code. Finally know that there only support 1.7 but not 1.8 as time being. You might try to download jre7 and jdk7.
I faced the same error in Mac, but I noticed that due to security settings the system does not let me to run the file with that piece of code. I downloaded the selenium standalone file and using control key I single-clicked the file and then from the menu I chose the open. Then the problem get solved.
UPDATED: Took everyone's advice and decided plone.app.registry and 4.1.1 were not the issue, question is, what is? Where can I find the error logs in binary installer?
symptom: can't add content types (under Add New... folders, pages, news items, etc. -- hangs on save, more specifically my portal_factory is unable to validate and move the content to ZODB).
had same issue using both unified (4.1) and binary (4.1) installers
environment: mac book 10.6 Snow Leopard 32-bit
When I run buildout I see no errors:
2012-05-08 18:13:34 INFO ZServer HTTP server started at Tue May 8 18:13:34 2012

That's not an error - that's what happens whenever you start up an instance with a new Data.fs file. If there's no Data.fs.index, or the .index file is inconsistent with the Data.fs, the existing one is ignored and the index is rebuilt. It means absolutely nothing on a new install.
There must be more information than this in the log.
Fixed this issue by following this post here: http://plone.293351.n2.nabble.com/Add-new-Plone-site-creates-site-with-JS-problems-4-1-4-tt7547774.html#a7555663
Basically, had to go to javascript registry, save, empty cache, restart browser, testing in Chrome only.
