[🐛 Bug]: Error occurs if path contains multibyte characters #14066

matsuda-dcom · 2024-06-03T09:06:52Z

What happened?

I noticed one day that my Jenkins job was failing.
I am writing tests for a web application with selenium using C#.
new ChromeDriver() fails if the path of the project file being tested contains multi-byte characters.
As far as I remember, no errors occurred in ver4.10.0.
The test passes by removing multibyte characters from the path.

How can we reproduce the issue?

Write and execute test code in a file whose path contains multibyte characters.

ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
var driver = new ChromeDriver(service, options);

Relevant log output

OpenQA.Selenium.WebDriverException : Error starting process: C:\ProgramData\Jenkins\.jenkins\workspace\テスト\システムテスト\MyProject\bin\Debug\net8.0\selenium-manager\windows\selenium-manager.exe  --browser "chrome" --language-binding csharp --output json

@bonigarcia does this look like it is output from the manager, (i.e., not the bindings)? Are there unit tests for these characters?

bonigarcia · 2024-06-03T16:25:36Z

Similar issues were reported in the past. When that happened, I tested the Rust side with a custom cache path with non-ASCII characters, and the Rust side worked as expected. But those tests I did were manual, i.e., not included in an automated test. So, I have just included some parameterized automated tests about using paths with similar characters. The Windows build is failing in CI, but for other reasons. The new tests should work.

However, the reported problem comes from Rust. Unfortunately, the error message is not very informative due to a problem with the error message (solved here).

In summary, I don't know why this problem happens to @matsuda-dcom.

@matsuda-dcom: Can you please execute the following command from your shell and share the output here? Thanks

matsuda-dcom · 2024-06-05T04:53:26Z

If I change the nuget version back to 4.10.0 the test passes.

MyProject.csproj
-    <PackageReference Include="Selenium.Support" Version="4.21.0" />
-    <PackageReference Include="Selenium.WebDriver" Version="4.21.0" />
+    <PackageReference Include="Selenium.Support" Version="4.10.0" />
+    <PackageReference Include="Selenium.WebDriver" Version="4.10.0" />

bonigarcia · 2024-06-05T14:51:54Z

According to the command execution output, Selenium Manager seems to work as expected. So, I still do not understand why this error is happening.

@matsuda-dcom: Please turn on logging and re-run your code. Information on how to adjust logs for your language can be found in our Troubleshooting documentation.

Also, you can update your Selenium Manager binary to get a better error description. I mean, replace the following file:

C:\ProgramData\Jenkins.jenkins\workspace\テスト\システムテスト\MyProject\bin\Debug\net8.0\selenium-manager\windows\selenium-manager.exe

With the one downloaded from here: selenium-manager-windows (you need to uncompress that ZIP file and replace the previous EXE file). Thanks.

titusfortner · 2024-06-05T15:05:36Z

The first log, with the execution from a path that contains multibyte characters, appears to do the right thing.
Is your problem intermittent or consistent?
Try rerunning with --clear-cache so we can see if it is an issue with the first time it is run.

matsuda-dcom · 2024-06-07T06:01:35Z

@bonigarcia
I turned on logging.
"Selenium.log" was created but is empty.
I tried for 5 hours and it didn't work. Is #13839 related?

Log.SetLevel(LogEventLevel.Trace).Handlers.Add(new ConsoleLogHandler());
Log.CreateContext(LogEventLevel.Trace).Handlers.Add(new FileLogHandler("Selenium.log", true));

Debug logs are output to the console.
�e�X�g\\�V�X�e��e�X�g Does the garbled characters have something to do with this error?

This error occurs with nuget version 4.11.0 and above.
No error occurs in nuget version 4.10.0.

MyProject.csproj
    <PackageReference Include="Selenium.Support" Version="4.11.0" />
    <PackageReference Include="Selenium.WebDriver" Version="4.11.0" />

bonigarcia · 2024-06-07T19:15:52Z

The problem is that you have a driver in your PATH:

Found chromedriver 125.0.6422.76 in PATH: C:\\ProgramData\\Jenkins\\.jenkins\\workspace\\�e�X�g\\�V�X�e���e�X�g\\MyProject\\bin\\Debug\\net8.0\\chromedriver.exe"

Selenium-Manager detects this driver. Unfortunately, it cannot parse that driver's path properly because of the Japanese characters. I've been debugging this problem, and I have found that it is caused by the execution of the command where in Windows through Selenium Manager. After much digging into the issue, I believe I found a solution.

So, the following Selenium Manager binary should fix the issue: selenium-manager-windows

@matsuda-dcom: Please download that file, uncompress it, and replace the resulting EXE with the one that is being used in your test:

C:\ProgramData\Jenkins.jenkins\workspace\テスト\システムテスト\MyProject\bin\Debug\net8.0\selenium-manager\windows\selenium-manager.exe

Please rerun your test and share the results here, thanks.

matsuda-dcom · 2024-06-10T02:31:00Z

@bonigarcia
Replaced with selenium-manager-windows
No errors are output.
My Jenkins job was successful!
Thanks for the great fix.
