Stuck at opening webdriver

See original GitHub issue

when launching eagleeye, it seems to get stuck at “opening webdriver”.

  • path to geckodriver is specified in config.json
  • It does open a firefox window
  • there are 2 jpg files in the known folder
  • after about a minute it ends up dying ==> Opening Webdriver Traceback (most recent call last): File "eagle-eye.py", line 230, in <module> main(skipFB=args.skipfb, skipIR=args.skipir, skipY=None, FBUrls=[]) File "eagle-eye.py", line 84, in main f.grabData() File "/root/tmp/EagleEye/grabber/facebook.py", line 16, in grabData driver = cfg.getWebDriver() File "/root/tmp/EagleEye/utils/config.py", line 40, in getWebDriver return webdriver.Firefox(profile) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/selenium/webdriver/firefox/webdriver.py", line 170, in __init__ keep_alive=True) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/selenium/webdriver/remote/webdriver.py", line 156, in __init__ self.start_session(capabilities, browser_profile) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/selenium/webdriver/remote/webdriver.py", line 251, in start_session response = self.execute(Command.NEW_SESSION, parameters) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/selenium/webdriver/remote/webdriver.py", line 320, in execute self.error_handler.check_response(response) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/selenium/webdriver/remote/errorhandler.py", line 242, in check_response raise exception_class(message, screen, stacktrace) selenium.common.exceptions.WebDriverException: Message: connection refused
