Is there a way to run Selenium program outside of my PC? I'm happy with my code since its working as intended but running it over and over is annoying since its slowing my PC while opening and reloading browser. So my question is:
What should I use to run my script on something like host, Virtual Machines or something.
I'm pretty new to Selenium and Python so I dont know how to do it and i cant find enything useful on the internet that would help me.
I'm working a tutorial in Python 3.8 that involves sockets and networking. There is a server.py file and a client.py file. I took example code straight out of the Python doc for sockets to see if that would work, and it does not. The server starts and creates a socket and listens for the connection, but I get WinError 10061, the one where the target machine refuses the connection. My OS is Windows 10 and I'm using IDLE. I've looked at my Firewall and set a permission for pythonw.exe to be allowed through, but that has not helped. Anybody have any fixes for me to try? I can't really proceed until I can get the client and server connected.
I think I know what I’ve been doing wrong. I have been running both server and client files in the same console. I think I have to open two consoles and run one file in each so they can communicate.
(Doh!)
I’m at work so I can’t test it right now. Just in case anyone else has been befuddled by this .
Yes, I did not realize that each file had to run in its own instance of IDLE, but that makes perfect sense now. A socket won’t connect to itself!
I have been working on a flask application and it has been working just fine. however, for a couple of hours now, i have not been able to run my application on the web. After running the script on command line as usual, i would copy the ip address to my browser in order to display its content but will not respond anymore. I have tried changing port, and other troubleshooting i suppose should work but has still not been able to get it fixed. Any assistance is highly appreciated.
The error message is " this site can not be reached" when is actually running on the server in command line.
so I'm having the weirdest problem! I have a python script which was working just fine and accessing a local mongodb and all was good.. then I wanted to add a new feature but I wanted to try it first so I copied my script into a new file and when I tried to run it it didn't access to mongodb and it kept on giving me this error pymongo: [Errno 10013] An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions
BUT the old script is still working just fine!!
I searched every were google could have taken me and tried everything I know but the problem is still there all new scripts are giving me this error and all old ones are working just fine..
can anyone please help me?
the problem was with the antivirus.. I have comodo antivirus and it has been blocking the scripts,, I unblocked them and now they work :)
A week back I posted this, and about 2 weeks back I posted this, both pertaining to an ever evolving issue with my Python sockets. I've also asked a question on the Wireshark Stack Exchange, and even after all 3 posts, I haven't been able to reach any conclusion. So heres the problem:
When I start up IDLE, it returns an error: IDLE Subprocess: socket error: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it and then I press ok on the dialogue boxes and it closes it out. But the issue isn't only limited to IDLE.
Any TCP ports I try to connect to via the Python socket module will fail. For example, if I run a server and a client (server first, of course, and both have the current IP of my computer and the port 45002) locally on my computer it returns: [Errno 10061] No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it. So someone on an earlier post told me that running both the programs locally on a Windows machine will not work because it doesn't have a loopback interface (although when I look at my network interfaces via CMD, Loopback interface is listed for some reason). So then I went ahead and put the server on the computer with the issue, and the client on another computer on the network. It returns: [Errno 10060] A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond. But for some reason, if I run the server on the other computer and then run the client on the computer with the issue, the server and client actually connect, and then the server fails claiming: [Errno 10057] A request to send or receive data was disallowed because the socket is not connected and (when sending on a datagram socket using a sendto call) no address was supplied, even though I made sure to include a .connect(addr) in the client program. Sorry if this is getting confusing, but it's going to get a bit more complicated than this.
After this mess of running servers/clients on different computers, per request of another answerer on an early post, I installed Wireshark and began looking for packets being sent on the ports I am using. The results were a little weird. When I run the server on the computer with the issue, and the client on the other computer, Wireshark catches absolutely no packets on the port of the server, and the client fails with the errno 10060, as I said earlier. If I run the server from the other computer and the client from the computer with the issue, Wireshark catches some ordinary SYNs and ACKs. I only get an RST when I end the Python.exe process (this info is really only important to people who are good with Wireshark/networking, it's really only extra info).
I've also tried capturing packets from the IDLE program with Wireshark after I pinpointed the range of ports that it tends to use. When I start it up, no packets on any port in the range. Again, this is really just extra info to any of you who may be able to make something of it.
Again, sorry for the confusion, but I must go on.
And now, the issue that brought all this up. The problem that really caused me to ask myself "Hmm... Why is Python not working correctly?", my Twisted server was not able to import the reactor module returning the errno 10061. If you don't use/know of Twisted, all that's really needed to understand the problem is that, to import the reactor module, Twisted has to setup a Python TCP port, which is not working.
This issue has left me (and presumably everyone who's read it) scratching their head. I am sure that the ports I am using are not used. I'm sure the IP addresses are correct and matching. I am sure that there is no firewall blocking the connections, since I have tried running the programs without a firewall on with no luck. I am running a Wireless Windows 64bit laptop.
Heres my client program, and here's my server program, if they help at all.
Any suggestions, ideas, or answers are welcomed. At this point, any at all. Thanks.
P.S. If there is any info I can provide, or anything I can do to help find the solution to this issue, please tell. Also, I know this question is barely a programming one, so if there is somewhere else I am supposed to put this, please say and I'll move it over.
EDIT: Seems like I solved one piece of the puzzle. I can now connect a client on the computer with the issue to the computer with no issue, but not the other way around (running the client on the good computer, and running server on the broken one). I had to switch servSock.recv(buff) to cliSock.recv(buff) on the server side.
