It looks like you don't currently have the phantomjs.exe on your path. More details can be found in the RSelenium "Saucelabs" vignette http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/RSelenium/vignettes/RSelenium-saucelabs.html#id2a.
So download phantomjs from here: http://phantomjs.org/download.html and put the exe in your path.

I am using R in Windows from Amazon AWS.
However when I use the same code from my local Mac, I have no problem.
Any pointer how to resolve this issue will be highly helpful.
Thanks,

Or try to run R in administrator mode.
I have a shared computer. If I login with windows userA, I can run the following:
normalizePath("//mydrive/my/path", "/")
and it returns:
"\\\\mydrive/my/path"
However if login to windows under userB, I get this message:
Warning message: In normalizePath(path.expand(path), winslash,
mustWork) : path[1]="//mydrive/my/path": An unexpected network
error occurred
What does it mean? This has important consequences, as it prevents to add "//mydrive/my/path" to the .libPaths() when running under userB, e.g .libPaths(new="//mydrive/my/path"), it prints the same warning, then as soon as I try to use a package that is in this lib location, it show the ERROR:
Error in normalizePath(path.expand(path), winslash, mustWork) :
path[1]="//mydrive/my/path": An unexpected network error occurred

In addition: Warning message:

From the function startServer() this is the part that is producing the error:

When I run this part I get the following:

It is an issue with Win 7.
A htable XSL stylesheet is used to format the output of WMIC path win32_process
It results as a mismatch when using regional settings. Possible workarounds given are:
Copy or move the C:\Windows\system32\wbem\en-US*.xsl files up into the C:\Windows\system32\wbem\ folder.
Change your regional settings to match your Windows language version, log out and back in.
Specify the full path: WMIC process get /format:"%WINDIR%\System32\wbem\en-US\csv"
as noted in wmic error (invalid XSL format) in windows7
I am new to R and am trying to web scrape a jsp page to collect data. The page I want scrape from is: https://www.taxpayerservicecenter.com/RP_Search.jsp After I get a browser to open this url, I want to select neighborhoods, and scrape all the data there.
Also, is there an easier/better way to do this? This page has buttons and forms so it isn't as straight forward as say, scraping from a wikipedia page.
library(RSelenium) #passes
checkForServer() #passes
startServer() #passes
remDriver <- remoteDriver(remoteServerAddr="localhost", port=4444, browserName="firefox")
The following line is where I receive the error:
remDriver$open() #opens a browser, get the farthest w firefox
This is the error message I receive. I have searched everywhere for how to solve this!:
