Launching chrome with user profile through WD

[corvo]

Hello!

I've been trying to launch chrome through WD,  but for some reason, the user profile is not working, it just opens up the chrome window with the "temp" user. I've also made sure that the user profile path is correct by using "chrome://version". 

Here is what I've got so far:

#include "wd_helper.au3"
#include "wd_capabilities.au3"
#include "wd_core.au3"

SetupChrome()

    _WD_CapabilitiesStartup()
    Local $sCapabilities = _WD_CapabilitiesGet()
    $sSession = _WD_CreateSession($sCapabilities)
    _WD_Navigate($sSession, "https://www.google.com")


Func SetupChrome()
_WD_Option('Driver', 'chromedriver.exe')
_WD_Option('Port', 9515)
_WD_Option('DriverParams', '--verbose --log-path="' & @ScriptDir & '\chrome.log"')
_WD_Option('DriverParams', '--marionette-port 2828')
$sDesiredCapabilities = '{"capabilities": {"alwaysMatch": {"goog:chromeOptions": {"w3c": true, "args":["--user-data-dir=C:\\Users\\' & @UserName & '\\AppData\\Local\\Google\\Chrome\\User Data\\", "--profile-directory=Profile 2"]}}}}'
$_WD_DEBUG = $_WD_DEBUG_None ; You could also use $_WD_DEBUG_Error
EndFunc

 

Thanks in advance!

It might be helpful it you showed us what was displayed there.

_WD_Option('DriverParams', '--marionette-port 2828')

Marionette only applies to Firefox, so this doesn't belong here.

    _WD_CapabilitiesStartup()

You manually defined the Capabilities in SetupChrome, so these lines aren't needed.

$_WD_DEBUG = $_WD_DEBUG_None

Please remove or comment out this line and then show us the complete output from running your code above.

Thank you so much, it started working now after removing the extra unnecessary lines
- But now it only works in case no Chrome windows were open when I run the script, otherwise, it will start a new window, without navigating to the link. And when I remove the user profile tags from the capabilities, it starts working again (even if I've previously opened Chrome tabs). 

Here is the updated code: 

#include "wd_helper.au3"
#include "wd_capabilities.au3"
#include "wd_core.au3"

SetupChrome()
local $sDesiredCapabilities = '{"capabilities": {"alwaysMatch": {"goog:chromeOptions": {"w3c": true, "args":["--user-data-dir=C:\\Users\\' & @UserName & '\\AppData\\Local\\Google\\Chrome\\User Data\\", "--profile-directory=Profile 2"]}}}}'

    $sSession = _WD_CreateSession($sDesiredCapabilities)
    _WD_Navigate($sSession, "https://www.google.com")


Func SetupChrome()
_WD_Option('Driver', 'chromedriver.exe')
_WD_Option('Port', 9515)
_WD_Option('DriverParams', '--verbose --log-path="' & @ScriptDir & '\chrome.log"')
_WD_Option('DriverParams', '--marionette-port 2828')
;~ $_WD_DEBUG = $_WD_DEBUG_None ;
EndFunc

 

Error Log (in case a Chrome window was already open).

_WD_Option ==> Success [0] : Parameters:   Option=Port   Value=9515

Thank you for all the help!

You missed this one.

I'm pretty sure there is a earlier forum discussion where it was explained that you can't access the same profile simultaneously with two different browser instances.
