"org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException: Session [4c1df58d0fbcc5da00e18fe779040941] was terminated due to TIMEOUT" with ChromeDriver in SeleniumGrid

Question

We are continuously facing browser timeout issues in Selenium Grid. The occurence is intermittent. We are not able to find the reasoning.

If anybody has any idea, it would be of great help.

Selenium Jar: 3.14.0 chromedriver: 2.41 Appium: 1.8.1 java_client: 5.0.4

I have found solution for this error if we use driver.quit() in our scripts then this error will go. [link](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/40805828/in-jenkins-haedless-browser-org-openqa-selenium-webdriverexception-error-commu) — bhupathi turaga, Aug 16 '18 at 09:53
Update the question with the _Hub_ and _Node_ initiation commands and trace logs as well as the complete error trace log. — undetected Selenium, Aug 16 '18 at 10:05

It depends a lot on selenium grid configuration.As visible in your config json, you have used the property maxSession please change it to maxInstances. you should not limit max sessions on your grid. Even if you want to keep this property make it something like 1000 or so.

Also eliminate the property newSessionWaitTimeout. Lets use the default configured value.

Since we understand that the only issue with using selenium grid is maintainance as it needs regular restarts on hub and node basis. I would suggest to use some third party wrappers for better and easy maintainance. You can try SeleniumGridExtras by groupon.
