Selenium gives “selenium.common.exceptions.WebDriverException: Message: unknown error: cannot find Chrome binary” on Mac

Question

Trying to get selenium to work with Python 3 for web scraping purposes:

from selenium import webdriver
chrome_path = r\"/Library/Frameworks/Pyth         


        

Answer 1

If your chromedriver is located within /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6/bin/ directory the following code block should be working for you:

from selenium import webdriver

chrome_path = r'/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6/bin/chromedriver'
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=chrome_path)
driver.get('https://www.google.co.in')
