My system:
- Ubuntu 20.04 (AWS)
- Python 3.8.5
- ChromeDriver 88.0.4324.96
- Google Chrome 88.0.4324.182
Error: unknown error: DevToolsActivePort file doesn't exist The process started from chrome location /usr/bin/google-chrome is no longer running, so ChromeDriver is assuming that Chrome has crashed.
Code:
async def arsenic_scraper(url):
service = services.Chromedriver()
browser = browsers.Chrome()
browser.capabilities = {"goog:chromeOptions": {"args": ["--no-sandbox", "--disable-dev-shm-usage"]}}
async with get_session(service, browser) as session:
await session.get(url)

This helped!
Try reinstalling Chrome. Press: CTRL+T Then enter the commands:
sudo apt-get --reinstall install WhateverChromeIsCalledOnDownload
You can get the package name by viewing the package that you downloaded. Make sure you get it exactly right or the command will not work.
I hope this helps!
