I am trying to open chrome from R console using command
> remDr <- remoteDriver(remoteServerAddr = "localhost" , port = 4444 , browserName = "chrome")
> remDr$open()
the versions are all latest.
chrome - 55
chromedriver - 2.27
selenium standalone server - 3.0.1
I am able to connect to remote server with following error message but it doesn't open the browser.
$message

There seems to be an issue with chrome/chromedriver/selenium server. You will need verbose logging to check in more detail:
library(wdman)
library(RSelenium)
selServ <- selenium(jvmargs = c("-Dwebdriver.chrome.verboseLogging=true"))
remDr <- remoteDriver(port = 4567L, browserName = "chrome")
remDr$open()
selServ$log()
or if you prefer running seperately in the terminal start a selenium server as follows:
java -Dwebdriver.chrome.verboseLogging=true -Dwebdriver.chrome.driver=/home/hdpusr/ChromeDriver/chromedriver -jar selenium-server-standalone-3.0.1.jar -port 4444
You can then file an issue with https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromedriver/issues/list if the problem is not apparent.

It's been a week struggling with this. I've checked every version of chrome, chrome driver, geckodriver, Selenoum.jar, even R. I also replaced a number of rselenium folders in C drive.
Why R cannot sense the Chromedriver and returns SessionNotCreatedException error?
How can I solve this? I'm really desperate cause this is a part of my final assignment for uni,
and I cannot even start it.
I just want to go with Chrome, not switching to Mozila's Firefox.

Checked versions of every programm needed.
Checked binman::list_versions("chromedriver") to match the versions of Chrome driver and Chrome.
Reinstalled rsellenium library, Geckodriver, Chromedriver, Selenium.
Problem solved. It was all about directories...
I set my working directory as C:\r-selenium, but chromedriver and gecko were C:\r-selenium\chromedriver_win32,
C:\r-selenium\geckodriver-v0.17.0-win64 for each.
I've been successfully running a script daily for a while, but now it seems to be throwing a timeout error.
chromever = "96.0.4664.45"
rD <- rsDriver(browser="chrome", port= free_port(), chromever = chromever)
remDr <- rD[["client"]]
remDr$navigate("https://www.theweathernetwork.com/ca/14-day-weather-trend/british-columbia/coquitlam")
pageinfo <- read_html(remDr$getPageSource()[[1]])
precipitation <- pageinfo %>% html_nodes(".wxCell .wxObs") %>% html_text()
On the navigate line, the webpage endlessly loads, eventually throwing the following error:

Chrome hasn't updated or anything, so I'm not sure what may have caused this to start happening seemingly out of the blue. Any ideas?
I am setting up Selenium in R
library(RSelenium)
rD <- RSelenium::rsDriver(browser="chrome")
When i run rsDriver(), it brought up chrome and gave the following errors

Hi I'm trying to use RSelenium package in R on Windows 10.
Run command in cmd
java -Dwebdriver.chrome.driver="D:\Selenium\chromedriver.exe"
java -jar D:\Selenium\selenium-server-standalone-3.11.0.jar
and run code in R
remDr <- remoteDriver(browserName = "chrome", remoteServerAddr = "localhost", port = 4444L)
remDr$open()
But I get this following error

I downloaded Chrome(V66),The Chrome Webdriver(2.37),The Selenium Stand Alone Driver(3.11.0),all these are new version ,updated lately.
But I still get that error.Could someone please explain to me why?
issue solved.Command in cmd should be like the following code
java -Dwebdriver.chrome.driver="D:\Selenium\chromedriver.exe" -jar D:\Selenium\selenium-server-standalone-3.11.0.jar
I also got this very same issue- which got resolved by including -'chromeDriver.exe' path in command used for registering node.
like- >java -Dwebdriver.chrome.driver=C:\chromedriver_win32\chromedriver.exe -jar selenium-server-standalone-3.12.0.jar -role node -hub http://XX.XXX.XX:4444/grid/register
I try to use the RSelenium in windows with IE as browser as it seems there are some discrepancies with other browsers, and need some fixing with the newer versions.
I do as previously instructed in SO answers:

remDr$open()
remDr$open()

Also when starting server or checking for servers I receive errors regarding deprecated use of the function.
For example:
startServer()
Warning message:
startServer is deprecated.
Users in future can find the function in file.path(find.package("RSelenium"), "example/serverUtils").
The sourcing/starting of a Selenium Server is a users responsiblity.
Options include manually starting a server see vignette("RSelenium-basics", package = "RSelenium")
and running a docker container see vignette("RSelenium-docker", package = "RSelenium")
