I'm trying to web scrape reviews from (https://boxes.mysubscriptionaddiction.com/box/boxycharm?ratings=true#review-update-create) but when I run the code: 

from selenium import webdriver
chrome_path = r"C:\Users\Sara Jitkresorn\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37\Scripts"
driver = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_path)

driver.get("https://boxes.mysubscriptionaddiction.com/box/boxycharm?ratings=true#review-update-create")
review = driver.find_element_by_class_name("comment-body")
for post in review:
    print(post.text)

I got the following error(s). What do I need to do to fix this?

"C:\Users\Sara Jitkresorn\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37\python.exe" "C:/Users/Sara Jitkresorn/PycharmProjects/untitled/venv/SubsAddict.py"

    startupinfo)

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

  1. You should replace all "\" with "/".
  2. Your chrome path is wrong, you need to find path to chrome executable, it should be stored in Program Files or Program Files x86 Google subfolder.

  • Yea I just noticed. I've replaced the 2nd and 3rd line with `driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=r'C:\Users\Sara Jitkresorn\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37\Scripts\chromedriver\\chromedriver.exe')` – Sara Jitkresorn Mar 08 '20 at 11:24
