Most likely you need to configure your SUID sandbox correctly

The important part of the message is: Error: Failed to launch chrome!
alongside with cannot open display
.
Do you try to run it in a docker container or anything headless?
If it is the case, you have to install xvfb
to emulate a display for chrome.
The test to know if your installation is correct (ie. chrome is running), do:
- create a
test.js
file in the project in./htcap/core/crawl/probe/
(to run it in the same context as theindex.js
), with the following content:
const puppeteer = require('puppeteer');
(async () => {
const browser = await puppeteer.launch();
const page = await browser.newPage();
await page.goto('https://example.com');
await page.screenshot({path: 'example.png'});
await browser.close();
})();
I took it from here: https://github.com/GoogleChrome/puppeteer#usage
- run it with:
node ./test.js
If everything is OK, it will create a example.png
in ./htcap/core/crawl/probe/
. and the problem is in the probe code.
If you get the same error, there is a problem with your installation.
I made a low level error. From the description you gave and the serious study of Puppeteer, I solved this problem. Thank you for your quick and effective reply.:)
