I am writing a simple script in Python using Selenium to detect an element by its Css selector. I am accessing the Google page, and am targeting the input, by its CSS selector, which is input[name=q]
The Chrome page opens as planned, but the issue is that it closes without actually finding the input, and throws the following error in the terminal: ERROR:shader_disk_cache.cc(237)] Failed to create shader cache entry: -2
I tried running the script when Google Chrome is closed, and even went as far as to close all the Chrome processes in Task Manager, and it still complains about the shader cache entry.
What should I do here?
My code is:
from selenium import webdriver from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=r'C:\Python27\chromedriver.exe') driver.get("http://www.google.com") fLocator = "input[name=q]" try: searchField = WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.CSS_SELECTOR, fLocator))) finally: driver.quit()
