I used to run my protractor tests using directConnect: true option set. The chromedriver I had at that time was chromedriver2.46

Now with the latest webdriver-manaegr12.1.4, the chromedriver was upgraded to ChromeDriver 74.0.3729.6 (255758eccf3d244491b8a1317aa76e1ce10d57e9-refs/branch-heads/3729@{#29})

If I still continue to use directConnect: true and run my tests, I get the following error

session not created: This version of ChromeDriver only supports Chrome version 75 (Driver info: chromedriver=75.0.3770.8 (681f24ea911fe754973dda2fdc6d2a2e159dd300-refs/branch-heads/3770@{#40}),platform=Mac OS X 10.14.4 x86_64)

Here is my very simple example: https://github.com/cnishina/protractor542-chrome74 It does not use a Docker container but it works for Chrome 74 with ChromeDriver 74.

Chrome browser + ChromeDriver versions

The output error message looks like session was not created because you are trying to use ChromeDriver 75. I would refer to http://chromedriver.chromium.org/downloads to match the ChromeDriver version to the Chrome browser version. The latest Chrome browser version is 74 so ChromeDriver downloads 74.0.3729.131. If you are still on Chrome browser 71-73, you could use ChromeDriver 2.46. Moving forward, the browser major version and chromedriver version must match. So for Chrome 73, you could use 73.0.3683.68.

Downloading different versions of ChromeDriver

If you need to download a different version of ChromeDriver, you could run the webdriver-manager command: webdriver-manager update --versions.chrome 73.0.3683.68 or to download 2.46, webdriver-manager update --versions.chrome 2.46.
