I'm trying to use Selenium with chrome driver and connect to websites using proxy, but for some odd reason chrome gives back an error, that either connection was reset or connection timed out or this site cant be reached and so on.. used many proxies, so I doubt that the proxy server is at fault.
Here's my code:
from selenium import webdriver
chromedriver = r'C:/Users\seife\Documents\chromedriver\chromedriver.exe'
PROXY = "177.202.59.58:8080"
chrome_options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
chrome_options.add_argument('--proxy-server=%s' % PROXY)
chrome = webdriver.Chrome(chromedriver, options=chrome_options)
chrome.get("http://whatismyipaddress.com")
Here's how the page looks:
#you need to import Options
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from selenium import webdriver
chromedriver = r'C:/Users\seife\Documents\chromedriver\chromedriver.exe'
PROXY = "177.202.59.58:8080" #free proxies sometimes don't work, I tried with netherland's proxy, and it worked
chrome_options = Options() #here is the change
chrome_options.add_argument('--proxy-server=%s' % PROXY)
chrome = webdriver.Chrome(chromedriver, options=chrome_options)
chrome.get("https://whatismyipaddress.com") #and here is the change, just https
I really can’t to set socks5 proxy(http too...) for my chrome webdriver in selenium for python.
I tried many different ways... But I think I do something bad.
Example 1:
self.options.add_argument('--proxy-server=http://'+proxy)
Example 2:
webdriver.DesiredCapabilities.CHROME['proxy'] = {
"socksProxy": proxy,
"ftpProxy": proxy,
"sslProxy": proxy,
"noProxy": None,
"proxyType": "MANUAL",
"class": "org.openqa.selenium.Proxy",
"autodetect": False
}
Please describe fully the working example of setting up socks5 proxy on Selenium for Python and Chrome webdriver, with an example of proxy string formats (maybe i am doing something mistakes here ...).
PS Two problems which I get:
Just staying old IP address.
No internet connection in chrome web driver.
Chrome do not allow proxy with auth. I am not shure but after read so many informations I think so.... Only one way is working for me - to use proxy socks5 without auth by login and password.
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
proxy = '12.12.421.125:1949'
options.add_argument('--proxy-server=socks5://' + proxy)
driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=options)
For FireFox's geckodriver if you just want to set socks5 host / socks5 proxy :-
form selenium import webdriver
profile = webdriver.FirefoxProfile()
# Socks5 Host SetUp:-
myProxy = "198.199.101.152:8388"
ip, port = myProxy.split(':')
profile.set_preference('network.proxy.type', 1)
profile.set_preference('network.proxy.socks', ip)
profile.set_preference('network.proxy.socks_port', int(port))
driver = webdriver.Firefox(firefox_profile=profile)
Here is the code I used to connect to a Socks5 server with username/password auth.
from selenium import webdriver
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager
from selenium.webdriver.common.desired_capabilities import DesiredCapabilities
capabilities = dict(DesiredCapabilities.CHROME)
capabilities['proxy'] = {
'proxyType': 'MANUAL',
'socksProxy': '<Your_IP>:<Your_Port>',
'socksVersion': 5,
'ftpProxy': '<Your_IP>:<Your_Port>',
'noProxy': 'localhost,127.0.0.1',
'class': "org.openqa.selenium.Proxy",
'autodetect': False
}
capabilities['proxy']['socksUsername'] = '<username>'
capabilities['proxy']['socksPassword'] = '<password>'
driver = Chrome(ChromeDriverManager().install(), desired_capabilities=capabilities)
For Firefox's geckodriver , based on the answer by Tanmay Harsh, I have got this so far:
from selenium.webdriver import Firefox, FirefoxOptions
proxy = ('proxy-server.local', 1080)
options = FirefoxOptions()
options.set_preference('network.proxy.type', 1)
options.set_preference('network.proxy.socks', proxy[0])
options.set_preference('network.proxy.socks_port', proxy[1])
options.set_preference('network.proxy.socks_remote_dns', True)
driver = Firefox(options=options)
'proxy': {
'http': 'socks5://user:pass#192.168.10.100:8888',
'https': 'socks5://user:pass#192.168.10.100:8888',
'no_proxy': 'localhost,127.0.0.1'
}
}
driver = webdriver.Chrome(seleniumwire_options=options)```

My python script has the headless chrome in selenium up and functional but how, if possible, can I use a proxy as well? How can I pass the proxy host port to my headless chrome browser?
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument('headless')
browser = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_options=options)
How do I use the proxy host port with selenium and mainly headless chrome? Thanks!
Something like this:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.proxy import Proxy, ProxyType
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument('headless')
desired_caps = options.to_capabilities()
prox = Proxy()
prox.proxy_type = ProxyType.MANUAL
prox.http_proxy = "ip_addr:port"
prox.socks_proxy = "ip_addr:port"
prox.ssl_proxy = "ip_addr:port"
prox.add_to_capabilities(desired_caps)
browser = webdriver.Chrome(desired_capabilities=desired_caps)
The simplest way to do is something like below. Put any ip address in the proxy variable to find out how it works. ip and port are separated by :.
from selenium import webdriver
proxy = "94.122.251.105:3128" #test with any ip address which supports `http` as well because the link within the script are of `http`
chrome_options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
chrome_options.add_argument('--headless')
chrome_options.add_argument('--proxy-server={}'.format(proxy))
driver = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_options=chrome_options)
driver.get('http://www.lagado.com/proxy-test')
items = driver.find_element_by_css_selector(".main-panel p:nth-of-type(2)").text
print(items) #it should print out the ip address you are using in the `proxy` variable above
driver.quit()
I have been using selenium for automatic browser simulations and web scraping in python and it has worked well for me. But now, I have to run it behind a proxy server. So now selenium open up the window but could not open the requested page because of proxy settings not set on the opened browser. Current code is as follows (sample):
from selenium import webdriver
sel = webdriver.Firefox()
sel.get('http://www.google.com')
sel.title
sel.quit()
How do I change the above code to work with proxy server now as well?
You need to set desired capabilities or browser profile, like this:
profile = webdriver.FirefoxProfile()
profile.set_preference("network.proxy.type", 1)
profile.set_preference("network.proxy.http", "proxy.server.address")
profile.set_preference("network.proxy.http_port", "port_number")
profile.update_preferences()
driver = webdriver.Firefox(firefox_profile=profile)

how do i set proxy for chrome in python webdriver
Selenium using Python: enter/provide http proxy password for firefox
Running Selenium Webdriver with a proxy in Python
http://krosinski.blogspot.ru/2012/11/selenium-firefox-webdriver-and-proxies.html
The official Selenium documentation (http://docs.seleniumhq.org/docs/04_webdriver_advanced.jsp#using-a-proxy) provides clear and helpful guidelines about using a proxy.
For Firefox (which is the browser of choice in your sample code) you should do the following:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.proxy import *
myProxy = "host:8080"
proxy = Proxy({
'proxyType': ProxyType.MANUAL,
'httpProxy': myProxy,
'ftpProxy': myProxy,
'sslProxy': myProxy,
'noProxy': '' # set this value as desired
})
driver = webdriver.Firefox(proxy=proxy)
This will do the job:
import selenium
from selenium.webdriver.common.proxy import *
proxyHost = "my.proxy.host or IP"
proxyPort = "55555"
fp = webdriver.FirefoxProfile()
fp.set_preference("network.proxy.type", 1)
#fp.set_preference("network.proxy.http", proxyHost) #HTTP PROXY
#fp.set_preference("network.proxy.http_port", int(proxyPort))
#fp.set_preference("network.proxy.ssl", proxyHost) #SSL PROXY
#fp.set_preference("network.proxy.ssl_port", int(proxyPort))
fp.set_preference('network.proxy.socks', proxyHost) #SOCKS PROXY
fp.set_preference('network.proxy.socks_port', int(proxyPort))
fp.update_preferences()
driver = webdriver.Firefox(firefox_profile=fp)
driver.get("http://www.whatismyip.com/")
def install_proxy(PROXY_HOST,PROXY_PORT):
fp = webdriver.FirefoxProfile()
print PROXY_PORT
print PROXY_HOST
fp.set_preference("network.proxy.type", 1)
fp.set_preference("network.proxy.http",PROXY_HOST)
fp.set_preference("network.proxy.http_port",int(PROXY_PORT))
fp.set_preference("network.proxy.https",PROXY_HOST)
fp.set_preference("network.proxy.https_port",int(PROXY_PORT))
fp.set_preference("network.proxy.ssl",PROXY_HOST)
fp.set_preference("network.proxy.ssl_port",int(PROXY_PORT))
fp.set_preference("network.proxy.ftp",PROXY_HOST)
fp.set_preference("network.proxy.ftp_port",int(PROXY_PORT))
fp.set_preference("network.proxy.socks",PROXY_HOST)
fp.set_preference("network.proxy.socks_port",int(PROXY_PORT))
fp.set_preference("general.useragent.override","Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_9_3) AppleWebKit/537.75.14 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/7.0.3 Safari/7046A194A")
fp.update_preferences()
return webdriver.Firefox(firefox_profile=fp)
Is it possible to make selenium use the TOR browser? Does anyone have any code they could copy-paste?
Don't use the TBB, just set the correct proxy settings in whatever browser you're using. In FF for example, like this:
#set some privacy settings
ff_prof.set_preference( "places.history.enabled", False )
ff_prof.set_preference( "privacy.clearOnShutdown.offlineApps", True )
ff_prof.set_preference( "privacy.clearOnShutdown.passwords", True )
ff_prof.set_preference( "privacy.clearOnShutdown.siteSettings", True )
ff_prof.set_preference( "privacy.sanitize.sanitizeOnShutdown", True )
ff_prof.set_preference( "signon.rememberSignons", False )
ff_prof.set_preference( "network.cookie.lifetimePolicy", 2 )
ff_prof.set_preference( "network.dns.disablePrefetch", True )
ff_prof.set_preference( "network.http.sendRefererHeader", 0 )
#set socks proxy
ff_prof.set_preference( "network.proxy.type", 1 )
ff_prof.set_preference( "network.proxy.socks_version", 5 )
ff_prof.set_preference( "network.proxy.socks", '127.0.0.1' )
ff_prof.set_preference( "network.proxy.socks_port", 9050 )
ff_prof.set_preference( "network.proxy.socks_remote_dns", True )
#if you're really hardcore about your security
#js can be used to reveal your true i.p.
ff_prof.set_preference( "javascript.enabled", False )
#get a huge speed increase by not downloading images
ff_prof.set_preference( "permissions.default.image", 2 )
##
# programmatically start tor (in windows environment)
##
tor_path = "C:\\this\\is\\the\\location\\of\\" #tor.exe
torrc_path = "C:\\you\\need\\to\\create\\this\\file\\torrc"
DETACHED_PROCESS = 0x00000008
#calling as a detached_process means the program will not die with your python program - you will need to manually kill it
##
# somebody please let me know if there's a way to make this a child process that automatically dies (in windows)
##
tor_process = subprocess.Popen( '"' + tor_path+'tor.exe" --nt-service "-f" "' + torrc_path + '"', creationflags=DETACHED_PROCESS )
#attach to tor controller
## imports ##
# import stem.socket
# import stem.connection
# import stem.Signal
##
tor_controller = stem.socket.ControlPort( port=9051 )
control_password = 'password'
#in your torrc, you need to store the hashed version of 'password' which you can get with: subprocess.call( '"' + tor_path+'tor.exe" --hash-password %s' %control_password )
stem.connection.authenticate( tor_controller, password=control_password )
#check that everything is good with your tor_process by checking bootstrap status
tor_controller.send( 'GETINFO status/bootstrap-phase' )
response = worker.tor_controller.recv()
response = response.content()
#I will leave handling of response status to you
Yes, it is possible to make selenium use the TOR browser.
I was able to do so on both Ubuntu and Mac OS X.
Two things have to happen:
Set the binary path to the firefox binary that Tor uses. On a Mac this path would typically be /Applications/TorBrowser.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox. On my Ubuntu machine it is /usr/bin/tor-browser/Browser/firefox.
The Tor browser uses a SOCKS host at 127.0.0.1:9150 either through Vidalia or Tor installation. Launch Tor once from the Finder and leave it open so that Vidalia will be running. The instances launched with selenium will use the SOCKS host that Vidalia starts, too.
Here is the code to accomplish those two things. I run this on Mac OS X Yosemite:
import os
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.firefox_binary import FirefoxBinary
from selenium import webdriver
# path to the firefox binary inside the Tor package
binary = '/Applications/TorBrowser.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox'
if os.path.exists(binary) is False:
raise ValueError("The binary path to Tor firefox does not exist.")
firefox_binary = FirefoxBinary(binary)
browser = None
def get_browser(binary=None):
global browser
# only one instance of a browser opens, remove global for multiple instances
if not browser:
browser = webdriver.Firefox(firefox_binary=binary)
return browser
if __name__ == "__main__":
browser = get_browser(binary=firefox_binary)
urls = (
('tor browser check', 'https://check.torproject.org/'),
('ip checker', 'http://icanhazip.com')
)
for url_name, url in urls:
print "getting", url_name, "at", url
browser.get(url)
On an Ubuntu system I was able to run the Tor browser via selenium. This machine has tor running at port 9051 and privoxy http proxy that uses tor at port 8118. In order for the Tor browser to pass the tor check page I had to set the http proxy to privoxy.
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.firefox_binary import FirefoxBinary
from selenium.webdriver.common.proxy import Proxy, ProxyType
from selenium import webdriver
browser = None
proxy_address = "127.0.0.1:8118"
proxy = Proxy({
'proxyType': ProxyType.MANUAL,
'httpProxy': proxy_address,
})
tor = '/usr/bin/tor-browser/Browser/firefox'
firefox_binary = FirefoxBinary(tor)
urls = (
('tor_browser_check', 'https://check.torproject.org/'),
('icanhazip', 'http://icanhazip.com'),
)
keys, _ = zip(*urls)
urls_map = dict(urls)
def get_browser(binary=None, proxy=None):
global browser
if not browser:
browser = webdriver.Firefox(firefox_binary=binary, proxy=proxy)
return browser
if __name__ == "__main__":
browser = get_browser(binary=firefox_binary, proxy=proxy)
for resource in keys:
browser.get(urls_map.get(resource))
//just check your tor browser's port number and change that accordingly in the //code
from selenium import webdriver
profile=webdriver.FirefoxProfile()
profile.set_preference('network.proxy.type', 1)
profile.set_preference('network.proxy.socks', '127.0.0.1')
profile.set_preference('network.proxy.socks_port', 9150)
browser=webdriver.Firefox(profile)
browser.get("http://yahoo.com")
browser.save_screenshot("screenshot.png")
browser.close()
To open tor browser with Selenium driven GeckoDriver you need to:
Download and install the TOR Browser
Download the latest GeckoDriver v0.26.0 and place it in your system.
Install the recent Mozilla Firefox v77.0.1 browser.
You can use the following code block to open the TOR enabled browser:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.firefox_profile import FirefoxProfile
import os
torexe = os.popen(r'C:\Users\username\Desktop\Tor Browser\Browser\TorBrowser\Tor\tor.exe')
profile = FirefoxProfile(r'C:\Users\username\Desktop\Tor Browser\Browser\TorBrowser\Data\Browser\profile.default')
profile.set_preference('network.proxy.type', 1)
profile.set_preference('network.proxy.socks', '127.0.0.1')
profile.set_preference('network.proxy.socks_port', 9050)
profile.set_preference("network.proxy.socks_remote_dns", False)
profile.update_preferences()
firefox_options = webdriver.FirefoxOptions()
firefox_options.binary_location = r'C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe'
driver = webdriver.Firefox(firefox_profile= profile, options = firefox_options, executable_path=r'C:\WebDrivers\geckodriver.exe')
driver.get("http://check.torproject.org")
Browser Snapshot:
Alternative using Firefox Nightly
As an alternative you can also download, install and use the recent Firefox Nightly v79.0a1 browser.
Code Block:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.firefox_profile import FirefoxProfile
import os
torexe = os.popen(r'C:\Users\username\Desktop\Tor Browser\Browser\TorBrowser\Tor\tor.exe')
profile = FirefoxProfile(r'C:\Users\username\Desktop\Tor Browser\Browser\TorBrowser\Data\Browser\profile.default')
profile.set_preference('network.proxy.type', 1)
profile.set_preference('network.proxy.socks', '127.0.0.1')
profile.set_preference('network.proxy.socks_port', 9050)
profile.set_preference("network.proxy.socks_remote_dns", False)
profile.update_preferences()
firefox_options = webdriver.FirefoxOptions()
firefox_options.binary_location = r'C:\Program Files\Firefox Nightly\firefox.exe'
driver = webdriver.Firefox(firefox_profile= profile, options = firefox_options, executable_path=r'C:\WebDrivers\geckodriver.exe')
driver.get("http://check.torproject.org")
Browser Snapshot:
Alternative using Chrome
As an alternative you can also download, install and use the recent Chrome v84 browser.
Code Block:
from selenium import webdriver
import os
torexe = os.popen(r'C:\Users\username\Desktop\Tor Browser\Browser\TorBrowser\Tor\tor.exe')
PROXY = "socks5://localhost:9050" # IP:PORT or HOST:PORT
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument('--proxy-server=%s' % PROXY)
driver = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_options=options, executable_path=r'C:\WebDrivers\chromedriver.exe')
driver.get("http://check.torproject.org")

A lot of answers are towards the right direction but this is exactly what worked for me:
On Ubuntu:
You need to install Tor using apt command or other method, but not the binary version.
Installation guide:
https://linuxconfig.org/how-to-install-tor-browser-in-ubuntu-18-04-bionic-beaver-linux
Inside the sample.py you might need to:
set profile of the Firefox to torrc which is located most of the times in /etc/tor/.
set the binary to the Firefox binary of Tor, since Tor is just a series of configurations built atop of Firefox.
You also need the geckodriver to automate firefox with selenium:
https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases (works with 0.21.0)
Extract
chmod +x geckodriver
export PATH=$PATH:/path-to-extracted-file/geckodriver
Pay attension to the:
"network.proxy.socks_port" = 9150
Inside torrc ControlPort 9050, CookieAuthentication 1
Open TorBrowser
sudo lsof -i -P -n | grep LISTEN the LISTEN port of the tor network must be the same in the script
Run the python script, while TorBrowser is open

profile.proxy = Selenium::WebDriver::Proxy.new :socks => '127.0.0.1:9050' #port where TOR runs
browser = Watir::Browser.new :firefox, :profile => profile
To confirm that you are using Tor, use https://check.torproject.org/
I looked into this, and unless I'm mistaken, on face value it's not possible.
The reason this cannot be done is because:
Tor Browser is based on the Firefox code.
Tor Browser has specific patches to the Firefox code to prevent external applications communicating with the Tor Browser (including blocking the Components.Interfaces library).
The Selenium Firefox WebDriver communicates with the browser through Javascript libraries that are, as aforementioned, blocked by Tor Browser.
This is presumably so no-one outside of the Tor Browser either on your box or over the internet knows about your browsing.
Your alternatives are:
Use a Tor proxy through Firefox instead of the Tor Browser (see the link in the comments of the question).
Rebuild the Firefox source code with the Tor Browser patches excluding those that prevent external communication with Tor Browser.
I suggest the former.
As a newer alternative to Selenium, which only controls Firefox, have a look at Marionette. To use with the Tor Browser, enable marionette at startup via
Browser/firefox -marionette
(inside the bundle). Then, you can connect via
from marionette import Marionette
client = Marionette('localhost', port=2828);
client.start_session()
and load a new page for example via
url='http://mozilla.org'
client.navigate(url);
For more examples, there is a tutorial.
Older answer
The Tor project has a selenium test for its browser. It works like:
from selenium import webdriver
ffbinary = webdriver.firefox.firefox_binary.FirefoxBinary(firefox_path=os.environ['TBB_BIN'])
ffprofile = webdriver.firefox.firefox_profile.FirefoxProfile(profile_directory=os.environ['TBB_PROFILE'])
self.driver = webdriver.Firefox(firefox_binary=ffbinary, firefox_profile=ffprofile)
self.driver.implicitly_wait(30)
self.base_url = "about:tor"
self.verificationErrors = []
self.accept_next_alert = True
self.driver.get("http://check.torproject.org/")
self.assertEqual("Congratulations. This browser is configured to use Tor.", driver.find_element_by_css_selector("h1.on").text)
As you see, this uses the environment variables TBB_BIN and TBB_PROFILE for the browser bundle and profile. You might be able to hardcode these in your code.
System.setProperty("webdriver.firefox.marionette", "D:\\Lib\\geckodriver.exe");
String torPath = "C:\\Users\\HP\\Desktop\\Tor Browser\\Browser\\firefox.exe";
String profilePath = "C:\\Users\\HP\\Desktop\\Tor Browser\\Browser\\TorBrowser\\Data\\Browser\\profile.default";
File torProfileDir = new File(profilePath);
FirefoxBinary binary = new FirefoxBinary(new File(torPath));
FirefoxProfile torProfile = new FirefoxProfile(torProfileDir);
FirefoxOptions options = new FirefoxOptions();
options.setBinary(binary);
options.setProfile(torProfile);
options.setCapability(FirefoxOptions.FIREFOX_OPTIONS,options);
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver(options);
Referring to the answer #undetected Selenium . If you add to (or have in) PATH in windows : r'C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe' and r'C:\WebDrivers\geckodriver.exe' then you can use a shortened block of code. Below I present a block of code that works for me:
import os
from selenium.webdriver import Firefox
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.firefox_profile import FirefoxProfile
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.options import Options
# Variable with the URL of the website.
my_url = "http://check.torproject.org"
# Preparing of the Tor browser for the work.
torexe = os.popen(\
r"C:\Users\olive\OneDrive\Pulpit\Tor Browser\Browser\firefox.exe")
profile = FirefoxProfile(\
r"C:\Users\olive\OneDrive\Pulpit\Tor Browser\Browser\TorBrowser\Data"+\
"\Browser\profile.default")
profile.set_preference("network.proxy.type", 1)
profile.set_preference("network.proxy.socks", "127.0.0.1")
profile.set_preference("network.proxy.socks_port", 9150)
profile.set_preference("network.proxy.socks_remote_dns", False)
profile.update_preferences()
firefox_options = Options()
driver = Firefox(firefox_profile= profile, options = firefox_options)
driver.get(my_url)
It is no longer necessary to download the webdriver manually, you can use it this way:
pip install selenium
pip install webdriver-manager
import time
from selenium import webdriver
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
# Chrome e Proxy Tor
servico = Service(ChromeDriverManager().install())
proxy = "socks5://127.0.0.1:9150" # Tor
chrome_options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
chrome_options.add_argument(f"--proxy-server={proxy}")
navegador = webdriver.Chrome(service=servico, options=chrome_options)
check_tor = 'https://check.torproject.org/'
navegador.get(check_tor)
time.sleep(10)
*** Obviously Tor Browser needs to be open.**
