WebDriver UDF - Help & Support (II)

Danp2 · June 5, 2020

@DonChunior I haven't used that browser, so I'm not sure how much help I can be. I did have a few questions / comments --

You are using an older version of the Webdriver UDF. Please update to the latest version (0.3.0.1)
There's a newer version of the WinHTTP UDF. Grab the source from here.
What version of Geckodriver are you attempting to use?
Why the switch from port 4444 to 9150?

CYCho · June 7, 2020

@Danp2, Hi, sometimes I have to run 2 independent webdriver programs concurrenntly. As the _WD_Startup in the 2nd program closes existing chromedriver.exe and its child processes, the first program stops functioning when the 2nd program is initiated. So I put the following code in the 2nd program.

If Not ProcessExists("chromedriver.exe") Then
    _WD_Startup()
EndIf

Apparently this works. But I'd like to have your input as to the viability of this approach.

@CYCho That seems appropriate to me. In fact, it might be good to make this an option built into _WD_Startup.

@Danp2, thanks for your advice.
I've updated the UDFs to the latest versions.
For the Geckodriver I use the latest version 0.26.0 (64 bit).

Last but not least, I made the Tor Browser start with the following code:

_WD_Option('Driver', 'geckodriver.exe')
_WD_Option('Port', 4444)
_WD_Startup()
Local $sSession = _WD_CreateSession('{"capabilities": {"alwaysMatch": {"moz:firefoxOptions": {"binary": "C:\\Program Files\\Tor Browser\\Browser\\firefox.exe", "args": ["-profile", "C:\\Program Files\\Tor Browser\\Browser\\TorBrowser\\Data\\Browser\\profile.default"]}}}}')

However, I still get error messages in the console output:

_WDStartup: OS: WIN_10 WIN32_NT 18362 
_WDStartup: AutoIt: 3.3.14.5
_WDStartup: WD.au3: 0.3.0.1
_WDStartup: WinHTTP:    1.6.4.2
_WDStartup: Driver: geckodriver.exe
_WDStartup: Params: 
_WDStartup: Port:   4444
__WD_Post: URL=HTTP://127.0.0.1:4444/session; $sData={"capabilities": {"alwaysMatch": {"moz:firefoxOptions": {"binary": "C:\\Program Files\\Tor Browser\\Browser\\firefox.exe", "args": ["-profile", "C:\\Program Files\\Tor Browser\\Browser\\TorBrowser\\Data\\Browser\\profile.default"]}}}}
__WD_Post: StatusCode=0; ResponseText=0...
__WD_Post ==> Send / Recv error
_WD_CreateSession: 0
_WD_CreateSession ==> Webdriver Exception: HTTP status = 0

So the solution was to pass the Tor default profile as argument.

Do you have an idea how to get rid of them❓

Danp2 · June 8, 2020

@DonChunior If you check the Geckodriver console, does it provide any additional details?

nooneclose · June 8, 2020

@Danp2 does the new Microsoft Edge affect how WebDriver works with it?

Danp2 · June 8, 2020

@nooneclose Should work fine as long as you have the proper webdriver.

Danp2 · June 9, 2020

@DonChunior It seems that geckodriver isn't able to connect to the browser instance. As I mentioned before, I'm not familiar with this browser. Are you sure that TorBrowser supports Marionette / webdriver protocol?

I can't say for sure, but I assume so, since Tor Browser 9.5 is based on Firefox 68.9.0esr.

Danp2 · June 9, 2020

@DonChunior Looks like you need to tell geckodriver to use the correct port --

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

nooneclose · June 9, 2020

@Danp2 is there a way to not have webdriver close all my existing Microsoft Edge pages and tabs?

When I run this code:

; Edge (standard)
_WD_Option('Driver', 'MicrosoftWebDriver.exe')
_WD_Option('Port', 17556)
_WD_Option('DriverParams', '--verbose')

$sDesiredCapabilities = '{"capabilities":{}}'

;Start the WebDriver.exe console
_WD_Startup()

; Hide the WebDriver Console
_WD_ConsoleVisible(True)

If @error <> $_WD_ERROR_Success Then
    Exit -1
EndIf

$sSession = _WD_CreateSession($sDesiredCapabilities)

; Navigates to the Maximo login page
_WD_Navigate($sSession, "https://maximoapp.pcci.edu/maximo/webclient/login/login.jsp?appservauth=true")

; Maximizes the page
_WD_Window($sSession, "Maximize")

it closes all of my existing Edge pages and any tabs I had open.

Danp2 · June 9, 2020

@nooneclose This is likely the result of it using a new profile each time you launch the browser with the webdriver. You can likely specify your existing profile, but I haven't looked into how to do this with Edge (could be the same as Chrome).

nooneclose · June 9, 2020

thank you. I will check that out

@Danp2, thank you very much for the decisive hint!
With the following code, the Tor browser will now start as desired:

_WD_Option('Driver', 'geckodriver.exe')
_WD_Option('DriverParams', '--marionette-port 2828')
_WD_Option('Port', 4444)
_WD_Startup()
Local $sSession = _WD_CreateSession('{"capabilities": {"alwaysMatch": {"moz:firefoxOptions": {"binary": "C:\\Program Files\\Tor Browser\\Browser\\firefox.exe", "args": ["-profile", "C:\\Program Files\\Tor Browser\\Browser\\TorBrowser\\Data\\Browser\\profile.default"]}}}}')

nooneclose · June 11, 2020

@Danp2 How do I go about clicking on unseen links. There is a menu that only appears when the user hovers their mouse over a portion of the main menu.

See pictures below.

Before hovering the mouse over:

563354719_Screenshot(353).png.e8ebc0892f4c3c43329eca8199163117.png

After hovering the mouse over:

878747880_Screenshot(354).png.2c4cc5e4bdce8cfe26c8b89f1053ad07.png

I am trying to get my script to click on 'Physical Count' but everything I have tried failed. Even The code below failed.

_WD_LinkClickByText($sSession, "Physical Count")

If I can not use the standard

_WD_FindElement($sSession, $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath, "//a[@id='m74daaf83_ns_menu_AM55_HEADER_sub_PHYSCNTADJ_OPTION_a']")
_WD_ElementAction($sSession, $wPsyCount, 'click')

how would I go about achieving this?

If you want to see the HTML code I have to work with DM me. too much to post here.

It would be useful if you showed the results from the Scite output panel so that we can determine why it failed. Was the element not found? Or was the error due to a non-interactable element? How can we guide you without these necessary details? 🙄

P.S. You likely will need to use "actions" to force the menu to appear. See DemoActions in wd_demo.au3 for an example.

I looked at the actions in the demo file. Do they move the mouse to click or something? because I cannot guarantee the web-page to be opened the same every time.

here is the HTML:

Yes, you use it to simulate mouse movement among other things. How the web page is opened / rendered shouldn't matter as long as the target element exists.

The alternative is to find a way to programmatically trigger the menu to popup so that the click action can occur.

nooneclose · June 12, 2020

@Danp2 I do not know if I made progress or not but I think I got it to find this element but it didnt click on it.

_WD_Action ==> Invalid data type: (Back|Forward|Refresh|Url|Title|Actions) $sCommand=>b2b970bc-81f2-4de4-9557-1f770ac0a926

I tried this:

ConsoleWrite("Frames=" & _WD_GetFrameCount($sSession) & @CRLF)
ConsoleWrite("TopWindow=" & _WD_IsWindowTop($sSession) & @CRLF)
$sElement = _WD_FindElement($sSession, $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath, "//iframe[@id='iframeResult']")
_WD_FrameEnter($sSession, $sElement)

$wPsyCount = _WD_FindElement($sSession, $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath, "//a[@id='m74daaf83_ns_menu_AM55_HEADER_sub_PHYSCNTADJ_OPTION_a']")
_WD_Action($sSession, $wPsyCount, 'click')

that is the element that contains the javascript link.

is this right for actions?

$sAction &= $sElement & '","' & $_WD_ELEMENT_ID & '":"' & $sElement & '"}},{"button":1,"type":"pointerDown"},{"button":1,"type":"pointerUp"}]}]}'
