I had a trouble when i use selenium to control my Chrome. Here is my code:

from selenium import webdriver driver = webdriver.Chrome()

When i tried to operate it ,it runs successfully at first,the Chrome pop on the screen. However, it shut down at the few seconds. Here is the Traceback information

Traceback (most recent call last): File "<pyshell#3>", line 1, in <module> driver = webdriver.Chrome('C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\chrome.exe') File "C:\Users\35273\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\chrome\webdriver.py", line 62, in __init__ self.service.start() File "C:\Users\35273\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\common\service.py", line 86, in start self.assert_process_still_running() File "C:\Users\35273\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\common\service.py", line 99, in assert_process_still_running % (self.path, return_code) selenium.common.exceptions.WebDriverException: Message: Service C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\chrome.exe unexpectedly exited. Status code was: 0

You need to provide the path of chromedriver...download from http://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/index.html?path=2.24/...unzip it and provide path to it in... webdriver.chrome ("path to chromedriver")

I explain the things here:

from selenium import webdriver driver = webdriver.Chrome("C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe")

This is the error if i run the above code:

 C:\Python27\python.exe C:/Users/Gaurav.Gaurav-PC/PycharmProjects/Learning/StackOverflow/SeleniumQuestion/test123.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:/Users/Gaurav.Gaurav-PC/PycharmProjects/Learning/StackOverflow/SeleniumQuestion/test123.py", line 4, in <module> driver = webdriver.Chrome("C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe") File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\chrome\webdriver.py", line 62, in __init__ self.service.start() File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\common\service.py", line 86, in start self.assert_process_still_running() File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\common\service.py", line 99, in assert_process_still_running % (self.path, return_code) selenium.common.exceptions.WebDriverException: Message: Service C:\Program Files (x86)\Google \Chrome\Application\chrome.exe unexpectedly exited. Status code was: 0

Which is same as mentioned by @Weiziyoung in original problem.

The solution is as I mentioned you need to provide the path to chromedriver in place of chrome browser like

driver = webdriver.Chrome("E:\Jars\chromedriver.exe")

It will resolve the problem

OP doesn't need to specify direct path to file as seems that chromedriver is already in the Path. In case of chromedriver binary not found something like selenium.common.exceptions.WebDriverException: Message: 'chromedriver' executable needs to be in PATH. should be raised
No,i have added the path to the enviorment varitable.
I Think its given the path of chrome browser not chromedriver in error line 1 you can see it
You think WRONG! This should be a path to chromedriver, not a Chrome binary. Check this: sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/chromedriver/getting-started
I am sorry if I was not able to write properly to explain my point. I m saying it looks the path of chrome binary is given inplace of chromedriver by the user looking at error

Download the appropriate driver：http://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/index.html turn up E:\Python37\Scripts <--Paste the chromedriver.exe file in

i faced the same error (behave.step_registry.AmbiguousStep: @given('Lunch chrome Browser') has already been defined in existing step @given('Lunch chrome Browser') at features/steps/OrangeHRMlogin.py:4). i think it takes previous program where it mentioned "Lunch chrome browser". so i did some changes like in 2nd program i cahnged at (U'chrome browser').change the browser name or the Phase and it runs successfully.
