this issue is solved with geckodriver 0.15 and selenium 3.3 version.
You need to download geckodriver. And then set
System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", "path\\to\\geckodriver.exe")
Check this link.
I had the same problem and fixed it with this. It seems it could not find the firefox binary
capabilities.setCapability("firefox_binary","C:\\Program Files\\Mozilla Firefox\\firefox.exe");
Same problem here. It was solved opening Eclipse/Netbeans with admin privileges.
This worked (linux mint, opensuse thumbleweed, win7)
with
libraryDependencies += "org.seleniumhq.selenium" %
"selenium-firefox-driver" % "3.0.1"
geckodriver.exe -V
geckodriver 0.13.0
if (System.getProperty("os.name").toLowerCase().contains("linux")) {
println("загружены настройки os.name=linux")
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "bin/chromedriver")
System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", "bin/geckodriver")
}else{
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "bin\\chromedriver.exe")
System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", "bin\\geckodriver.exe")
System.setProperty("webdriver.ie.driver", "bin\\IEDriverServer.exe")
System.setProperty("webdriver.edge.driver", "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Web Driver\\MicrosoftWebDriver.exe")
System.setProperty("webdriver.opera.driver", "c:\\XXX\\operadriver.exe")
System.setProperty("webdriver.opera.path","""C:\\Users\\user\\AppData\\Local\\Programs\\Opera""")
System.setProperty("webdriver.opera.binary","""C:\\Users\\user\\AppData\\Local\\Programs\\Opera\\launcher.exe""")
//
}
...
case
"firefox" => {
println(" подгружаем Веб-драйвер: geckodriver")
//iniprofile = new ProfilesIni()
//ffprofile = iniprofile.getProfile("default")
dc = DesiredCapabilities.firefox()
dc.setCapability("gecko", true) // как выйдет драйвер, так и установить
// dc.setCapability(FirefoxDriver.PROFILE, ffprofile); //FirefoxDriver.PROFILE = “firefox_profile”;
remote = new FirefoxDriver(dc)
}
but, for Remotewebdriver-connection if previous session failed,cancelled or aborted we get error:
[info] XXXX.E011_WebDB6292 *** ABORTED ***

I ran into the same problem today, and it appears that not being admin on my laptop is actually an issue. To resolve it
Alternatively if you dont want to download the Gecko driver, you can downgrade the Firefox version to 44.
