selenium启动浏览器报错os.path.basename(self.path), self.start_error_message) selenium.common.exceptions.Web

今天发现用selenium启动firefox浏览器报错，发现原因是没有安装驱动，所以把这个问题记录下来

selenium启动firefox报错

from selenium import webdriver

driver = webdriver.Firefox()
driver.get("https://www.google.com/")

报错代码如下：

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "D:\Program Files\Python35\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\common\service.py", line 74, in start
    stdout=self.log_file, stderr=self.log_file)
  File "D:\Program Files\Python35\lib\subprocess.py", line 947, in __init__
    restore_signals, start_new_session)
  File "D:\Program Files\Python35\lib\subprocess.py", line 1224, in _execute_child
    startupinfo)
FileNotFoundError: [WinError 2] 系统找不到指定的文件。

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\count.py", line 3, in <module>
    driver = webdriver.Firefox()
  File "D:\Program Files\Python35\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\firefox\webdriver.py", line 145, in __init__
    self.service.start()
  File "D:\Program Files\Python35\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\common\service.py", line 81, in start
    os.path.basename(self.path), self.start_error_message)
selenium.common.exceptions.WebDriverException: Message: 'geckodriver' executable needs to be in PATH. 

最后找到了解决办法如下：

1、下载geckodriver.exe：

下载地址：https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases
请根据系统版本选择下载；（如Windows 64位系统）

2、下载解压后将getckodriver.exe复制到Firefox的安装目录下，如
（D:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox），并在环境变量Path中添加路径：

D:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox；重启cmd或IDLE再次运行代码即可
