The Chrome Driver indicates compatibility with version 114, but it is actually intended to support version 113 - as mentioned in Selenium Python

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager
from time import sleep


driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=Service(ChromeDriverManager().install()))


driver.get(input("Link: "))

I recently opened my application after a few months and noticed that Chromium had updated to a new version. It appears that ChromeDriver only supports version 114, but I have installed version 113.0.5672.63 which is causing issues. When attempting to launch my Selenium application, I encounter the following error:

     
[29728:29416:0809/171603.204:ERROR:chrome_browser_cloud_management_controller.cc(162)] Cloud management controller initialization aborted as CBCM is not enabled.

Any suggestions on how to fix this issue?

Answer №1

The most recent release of selenium introduces a new driver manager that supersedes ChromeDriverManager. It is recommended to stop using ChromeDriverManager or specifying an executable_path for Chrome().

After updating your selenium version, give this approach a try:

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service

service = Service()
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=service, options=options)
# ...
driver.quit()

Answer №2

Consider adjusting your webdriver version to align with your current browser version.

webdriver.Chrome(service=Service(ChromeDriverManager("113.0.5672.63").install())

Answer №3

This particular error notification...

selenium.common.exceptions.SessionNotCreatedException: Message: the session was not established: The current version of ChromeDriver is compatible only with Chrome version 114        
The browser's version currently stands at 113.0.5672.0 with the binary pathway 
AppData\Local\Chromium\Application\chrome.exe

...indicates that SessionNotCreatedException occurred due to a discrepancy in versions between ChromeDriver and .

Details

The specific instance of Google Chrome utilized to launch your application has been setup in a customized directory, causing Chromium to update its version to v114.0

However, the default instance of Google Chrome located at 

AppData\Local\Chromium\Application\chrome.exe
remains at 113.0.5672.0. Hence, resulting in the version mismatch.

Solution

To resolve this issue, manually initiate a new instance of Google Chrome using the binary from 

AppData\Local\Chromium\Application\chrome.exe
, update the version accordingly, and then proceed with executing your test script. Your problem should be resolved after this step.
