I am currently running Selenium with Firebug, NetExport, and (trying out) FireStarter in Python trying to get the network traffic of a URL. I expect a HAR file to appear in the directory listed, however nothing appears. When I test it in Firefox and go through the UI, a HAR file is exported and saved so I know the code itself functions as expected. After viewing multiple examples I do not see what I am missing.
I am using Firefox 29.0.1 Firebug 1.12.8 FireStarter 0.1a6 NetExport 0.9b6
Has anyone else encountered this issue? I am receiving a "webFile.txt" file being filled out correctly.
After looking up each version of the add-ons they are supposed to be compatible with the version of Firefox I am using. I tried using Firefox version 20, however that did not help. I am currently pulling source code.
In addition I have tried it with and without FireStarter, and I have tried refreshing the page manually in both cases to try to generate a HAR.
My code looks like this:

import re
