downloading selenium incorrectly

See original GitHub issue

Hi. I’m running into a problem where webdriver-manager is downloading a zip and renaming it .jar and then I get a corrupt jarfile.

curl -o/Users/smonasco/spartan/node_modules/protractor/node_modules/webdriver-manager/selenium/selenium-server-standalone-4.0.0-alpha-1.zip.jar https://selenium-release.storage.googleapis.com/4.0/selenium-server-standalone-4.0.0-alpha-1.zip

This is of course not a proper jar file and later I get

[webdriver] Error: Invalid or corrupt jarfile /home/circleci/project/node_modules/protractor/node_modules/webdriver-manager/selenium/selenium-server-standalone-4.0.0-alpha-1.zip.jar

running it from bash this is the output.

I think the fix is to do another release for webdriver-manager. This will be released tomorrow. Stay tuned.

Leaving this open. If you are encountering this issue, please update to webdriver-manager 12.1.2. If you are using Protractor to download webdriver-manager, simply remove the node_modules directory and reinstall or do a npm install -f.
