I started learning selenium, and when I ran this code...

 from selenium import webdriver browser = webdriver.Firefox() print(type(browser))

When I ran that code, I got this error - Message: 'geckodriver' executable needs to be in PATH.

How can I fix this error? I'm working on Firefox 64bit, and my Selenium Version is '3.141.0'.

gekodriver is detected in the 3 following ways.

1. Using environment variable PATH

Add the absolute path to the gekodriver directory into the environmental variable PATH.

export PATH=PATH:/ABSOLUTE/PATH/TO/PARENT_DIRECTORY_OF/gekodriver

2. Current directory

Keep the gekodriver executable in the current directory where the Python script is being executed from.

3. Passed as executable_path

For example,

webdriver.Firefox(executable_path="c:\\gekodriver.exe")

The error is fixed, I just put the geckodriver.exe into the Python39 folder and it works now perfectly!
