On heroku chromedriver buildpack doesn't support chrome buildpack

Asked 2021-Apr-14 at 06:55

I wrote a web scraper using python.

To deploy it on heroku, I took this article as reference. https://www.andressevilla.com/running-chromedriver-with-python-selenium-on-heroku/

And added these buildpacks. https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-google-chrome https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-chromedriver

But when I run the code on heroku, this error occurs.

selenium.common.exceptions.SessionNotCreatedException: Message: session not created: This version of ChromeDriver only supports Chrome version 90 Current browser version is 89.0.4389.114 with binary path /app/.apt/opt/google/chrome/chrome

It looks like the chromedriver buildpack doesn't support chrome buildpack.

Does any other buildpack work? Or I can try any other way to deal with it?

Thanks!

Heroku Chrome Driver Buildpack allows you to choose version of chrome driver but by default it should have installed latest version of it available. You can set config var(Environment variable) CHROMEDRIVER_VERSION=89.0.4389.23 to download a chromedriver version compatible for chrome 89. After adding the variable, you'd want to redeploy for the changes to take effect.

I am quoting Ilya Vassilevsky from this post

ChromeDriver is just a driver for Chrome. It needs the actual Chrome browser installed on the same machine to actually work.

Heroku doesn't have Chrome installed on its dynos by default. You need to use a buildpack that installs Chrome. For example:

https://github.com/dwayhs/heroku-buildpack-chrome

You can see how it fetches Chrome:

https://github.com/dwayhs/heroku-buildpack-chrome/blob/master/bin/compile#L36-38

Then I read their discussion in the comments:

Petr Gazarov says

I tried this buildpack and it didn't work. I'm suspecting installing google chrome (or any browser) on heroku might be more involved.

Ilya Vassilevsky replies

Yes, Heroku is a very opinionated and closed platform. It should be much easier to set up Chrome with ChromeDriver on your own VM on AWS, Linode, or DigitalOcean.

Petr Gazarov replies

Thanks for your answer Ilya. I ended up re-writing with Watir with phantomjs because I couldn't get Heroku to install Chrome.

You can read more info in that question. If something comes to my mind, I will post it.

If you set the environment variable BROWSER_PATH it will be used as the location of the Chrome binary.

Heroku - Headless Chrome - Connection Refused

I am currently working with the: Heroku Build Pack for headless chrome. https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-google-chrome/

I'm encountering this infuriating error where my node script (show below) cannot connect to the chrome instance. I get a pretty definitive error being:

...

ANSWER

Answered 2017-Aug-16 at 21:36

Alright I figured it out. When deploying to heroku, I was using two different Procs in the Procfile. One for web which was launching the Node script. And another for launching the headless chrome daemon.

On heroku, those two different procs don't even share the same dyno. Meaning they we're on totally separate "boxes" - at least in theory. This resulted in them having different ports set in the ENVs (not that it even mattered at that point - they might as well be in different continents)

Solution:

Have the node script start the actual headless chrome, then ultimately connect to that child process using the CDP interface.

Also - if you're here and also curious about documentation for the CDP interface for node - it doesnt exist at the moment. Your best option, which is actually pretty good, is: https://chromedevtools.github.io/debugger-protocol-viewer/

Happy hunting.

Edit:

Example of how we handled launching the chrome child process from the application source
