I am really confused. What are you trying to do exactly? To install selenium you need to install, well, selenium. Not webdriver. So it should be pip install selenium – Whirl

Answer 1

This is not very clearly documented, but you cannot install webdriver from pypi but need to install selenium, which then gives you webdriver.

sudo pip install selenium

should do the trick. Or for modern python:

sudo python3 -m pip install selenium

You also need to install geckodriver (for Firefox) or chromedriver (for Chrome and Chromium) and have it in your path, to be able to instanciate a webdriver object.

After that things like the below should work:

from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Firefox()
driver.get("https://mcmap.net/q/1191639/-error-could-not-find-a-version-that-satisfies-the-requirement-webdriver-from-versions")

i am try but thrown error Traceback (most recent call last): driver = webdriver.Firefox() File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/selenium/webdriver/firefox/webdriver.py", line 77, in init self.binary, timeout), – Beitch

I can reproduce this error message on a system without Firefox installed. After the installation of Firefox the error is gone and I get the expected Firefox window. – Jardiniere

I encountered a similar problem on Ubuntu. I wanted to install a specific Selenium version, but I was not sure about the exact tag, as tag on Dockerhub differs a bit. So my steps were:

1 Go to https://pypi.org/project/selenium/#files

2 Click Release history tab

3 Find a specific version I needed. In my case it was 4.0.0.a7

4 From Linux Terminal execute:

pip install selenium==4.0.0.a7

Answer 3

you may try the following way, if you do not know the path, use !apt install chromium-chromedriver

!pip install selenium
!pip install webdriver-manager
!apt-get update # to update ubuntu to correctly run apt install
!apt install chromium-chromedriver

from selenium import webdriver
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager
import requests

from selenium import webdriver
chrome_options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
chrome_options.add_argument('--headless')
chrome_options.add_argument('--no-sandbox')
chrome_options.add_argument('--disable-dev-shm-usage')
wd = webdriver.Chrome('chromedriver',chrome_options=chrome_options)
driver =webdriver.Chrome('chromedriver',chrome_options=chrome_options)

This worked for me

sudo python3 -m pip install selenium

And after installing selenium, you can install the web driver manager

sudo python3 -m pip install webdriver_manager
