I am new to selenium, Trying out following File f = new File("/usr/bin/google-chrome"); System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", f.getAbsolutePath()); WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(); //wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 30); driver.get("http://www.google.com");

Empty chrome tab been opening but url "www.google.com" not loading. After few seconds getting error 

exception in thread "main" org.openqa.selenium.remote.UnreachableBrowserException: Could not start a new session. Possible causes are invalid address of the remote server or browser start-up failure.

Caused by: org.openqa.selenium.net.UrlChecker$TimeoutException: Timed out waiting for [http://localhost:11037/status] to be available after 20002 ms

  1. Why it is trying to connect localhost at "X"(changing) instead of loading google webpage.

  2. How can i overcome this one getting same problem with Firefox also occuring.

UnreachableBrowserException normally occurs when your code fails to connect with browser. It may be because of your driver executable or browser executable.

Please check -

  • Selenium Server jar version compatibility with browser version.
  • Path of driver executable.
  • Version of executable (based on browser version)

If issue exists then please mention build info and system info in the exception details.

System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","your path to chrome driver.exe file ");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
driver.get("http://www.google.com");

Try this

My path is //users//hari//chromedriver.exe
