I'm using Selenium to automate a browser in a Server from a client, but I want that the server execute selenium automatically at the startup.
I have 3 files in /etc/init:
proxyserver.conf:
respawn
start on runlevel [23]
script
exec java -jar selenium-server-standalone-2.20.0.jar -role hub -port 1111
end script
proxyserver2.conf and proxyserver3.conf that are the same thing and change only the content of "script":
exec java -Dwebdriver.chrome.driver=/home/marco/selenium-client/chromedriver -jar selenium-server-standalone-2.20.0.jar -role node -port 2222 -hub http://192.168.1.12:1111 -browserName=chrome,maxInstances=5
If I execute this commands at the startup with this method, when I execute Selenium on the Client, it give me this error:
Exception in thread "main" org.openqa.selenium.remote.UnreachableBrowserException: Could not start a new session. Possible causes are invalid address of the remote server or browser start-up failure.
But if I execute in the terminal the same commands that I use in /etc/init, all works perfectly... why?!
One last thing, if I execute:
ps aux | grep selenium
when the server the scripts at the startup it gives me:
root 746 0.0 12.1 677080 124468 ? Ssl Apr23 8:10 java -Dwebdriver...

root 755 0.0 1.9 680168 20240 ? Ssl Apr23 8.08 java -jar selenium...
when I execute in the terminal it gives me:

Why it can't works?
thanks!!
