Answer 1

You have to make sure that geckodriver is in your PATH.

In my case you can see that /usr/local/bin is already in my path:

$echo $PATH
/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/git/bin:/usr/local/mysql/bin

So simply moving geckodriver into /usr/local/bin makes it accessible.

mv geckodriver /usr/local/bin/
