[Question] Error: Executable doesn't exist at /home/user/.cache/ms-playwright/ffmpeg-1007/ffmpeg-linux

Hello,

We are using PW version 1.27.1. While trying to connect to selenium-grid implementation using connectOptions in config file:

{ name: ‘chrome’, use: { connectOptions: { wsEndpoint: wss://${endpoint}/playwright/chrome/playwright-1.27.1}, } }.

The above is working fine for chromium, webkit etc but throwing error for chrome.

Error Msg: browserContext.newPage: Executable doesn’t exist at /home/user/.cache/ms-playwright/ffmpeg-1007/ffmpeg-linux ╔═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ ║ Looks like Playwright Test or Playwright was just installed or updated. ║ ║ Please run the following command to download new browsers: ║ ║ ║ ║ npx playwright install ║ ║ ║ ║ ❤️ Playwright Team ║

Tried the following but still getting the same error:

1. Running npx playwright install
2. Updating to version 1.28 is still giving the same error.

Any suggestions on how to solve this?

@PriyankaSoni1210 it looks like there’s no expected version of ffmpeg inside the moon container; I’d recommend reaching out to Moon folks for help.

Hello, We are using Moon, unfortunately I cannot disclose the endpoint. However, I think this is related to @playwright/test(connectOptions) as we are able to reach the endpoint by overriding the page fixture.
