Chromium Failed to load mv3_extension on linux
Closed this issue · 6 comments
System: Debian Linux trixie
Fresh chromium(snap 123.0.6312.105) and Selenium-Driverless installs. Tried Selenium-Driverless current dev and pypi versions.
On load, chromium displays this error: Failed to load extension from: /home/user/.local/lib/python3.11/site-packages/selenium_driverless/files/mv3_extension. Manifest is not valid JSON. Can't read file. in a popup
After a few seconds the popup closes and the driver continues working as normal (on first look).
selenium_driverless/files/mv3_extension is a folder(NOT A ZIP) and contains a manifest.json and a script.
Just realized this project is chrome only 😥️. And with google chrome installed, it works perfectly.
This issue looks like a small fix away from being solved. Maybe someone can fix it.
@namtacs Have you checked if it succeeds when changing the permissions to rw?
It's already rw:
mv3_extension folder: drwx
manifest and script: -rw- Changing to -rwx doesn't help.
On this StackOverflow answer it says to zip it.
I tried zipping only the files and putting it under the name of the folder (mv3_extension without a file ext.).
And I tried zipping the entire folder and putting it under the same name.

well it shouldn't even matter - driverless supports both.
Question is more why Manifest is not valid JSON
Don't see how https://github.com/kaliiiiiiiiii/Selenium-Driverless/blob/master/src/selenium_driverless/files/mv3_extension/manifest.json could be invalid tbh
@namtacs Can you update driverless & try again?
same
i don't see you did any related commits
don't think that's gonna be fixed.
Can't relroduce => can't fix that
