Hello all,
I was attempting to automate several processes on a droplet, and yet, for some reason have been running into an issue with the following bit of python code:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.common.action_chains import ActionChains
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
import time
options = Options()
from pyvirtualdisplay import Display
display = Display(visible=0, size = [1000,1000])
display.start()
options.add_argument(‘–no-sandbox’)
WD = webdriver.Chrome(options=options)
print(“Webdriver and display loaded”)
def loginSC(url,driver, iden, password):
result = None
driver.get (url)
while result is None:
try:
driver.find_element(By.ID,“ContentPlaceHolder1_txtUserName”).send_keys(iden)
driver.find_element (By.ID,“ContentPlaceHolder1_txtPassword”).send_keys(password)
driver.find_element(By.ID,“ContentPlaceHolder1_btnLogin”).click()
result=1
except:
time.sleep(5)
print(“Trying again…1”)
print(“Page 1 Loaded!”)
result = None
print(driver.current_url)
while result is None:
driver.find_element(By.ID,“ContentPlaceHolder1_chkCampus_1”).click()
driver.find_element(By.ID,“ContentPlaceHolder1_chkSymptoms_8”).click()
driver.find_element(By.ID,“ContentPlaceHolder1_chkPolicyConfirmation”).click()
driver.find_element(By.ID,“ContentPlaceHolder1_btnSubmit”).click()
time.sleep(5)
driver.switch_to.alert.accept();
result=1
While this runs fine on my own PC, it gives the following error when run on my droplet: selenium.common.exceptions.NoSuchElementException: Message: no such element: Unable to locate element: {“method”:“css selector”,“selector”:“[id=“alert1”]”} (Session info: chrome=98.0.4758.80)
I can’t seem to find a way to make the driver “see” the alert, and I suspect it has something to do with the mandatory no-sandbox mode. How can I circumvent this?
