Krydos can install this for you on your account.

 

Escalating.

cPanel username: lbstudio

Main domain: lbstudio.heliohost.org

The server: Ricky

Version of python: 3.6

Request: install chrome webdriver

reference: https://selenium-python.readthedocs.io/installation.html, http://chromedriver.chromium.org/downloads

 

Thank you very much for help.

I don't think that's going to run here. From the looks of it, it requires Chrome itself be present, and just lets Python talk to Chrome. Our servers have no user interface, so a web browser can't run on them (not to mention the massive memory usage that we don't have the resources for, even if it could run).

 

You can sort of emulate a browser session with something like cURL though, if your goal is to automate accessing a website.

How is about phantomjs? It is more lightweight and command line only.

Also, I have seen it in someone's post too.

Thank you for your reply.

I'm not going to install phantomjs.

 

What are you trying to do exactly? Why not use requests which is already installed? https://krydos1.heliohost.org/cgi-bin/modules36.py

I am trying to scrape some data from a javascript-rendered website. I will find an alternative way to do it.

Thank you for your help.

You really ought to check out requests. https://html.python-requests.org/

Yes, Krydos is right.

 

Specifically check this part: https://html.python-requests.org/#javascript-support
