Website is not opening in selenium webdriver of google chrome using python

I am trying to open the website in selenium python but it is showing blank page. but when i open that website in normal google chrome it is working .
here is the code i am writing to open the website.
from selenium import webdriver
browser = webdriver.Chrome()
browser.get("https://shop.coles.com.au/a/wentworth-point/home")
Error I am Getting in chrome console Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 429 () and Failed to load resource: net::ERR_UNKNOWN_URL_SCHEME –

You must specify the chromedriver path. Something like this:
https://seleniumbyexamples.github.io/navget

Verify that version of chrome driver is same of chrome browser installed on your machine
and make sure that path of chrome driver is set in your PATH variable.
http://chromedriver.chromium.org/downloads

The error code 429 that you are getting means too many requests are sent in a given amount time. Just try to clean your build history and run it again. Regarding the version of Chrome, if that was to be the issue the browser must have not opened in the first place and you would have got other exception like SessionNotCreatedException: Message: session not created: This version of ChromeDriver only supports Chrome version 83
Just to be sure you mat check for the version of chrome you are using and the driver downloaded in the system, if it is not appropriate download the latest chrome driver from web and provide in the executable path to chrome or else add it in environment variables of your system.

Extensions not loading in Chrome driver Profiles Selenium

I am wanting to use Profiles in Selenium Chrome.
I have tried:
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument("user-data-dir=C:\\Users\\Bain3\\AppData\\Local\\Google\\Chrome\\User Data\\Profile 1") #Path to your chrome profile
w = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_options=options)
I do not believe the profile is being loaded correctly as the extensions are not being loaded with it and instead gives me normal chrome with chrome automation extension. I have done this in geckodriver with no issues.
My next question is, as I want to use profiles in Selenium chromedriver. How do I remove the profiles icon and images from Chrome as I often use Chrome by default. It seems pointless to have these icons when I already have names for the profiles in the shortcuts.
I tried:
start "" "c:\program files (x86)\google\chrome\application\chrome.exe" --new-window --disable-new-avatar-menu
as well as navigating through chrome://flags/
Any ideas on why extensions are not being loaded with profiles and if the profile button in chrome can be disabled as well as the icons?
Here's an image of the icons and profiles icon that I could not get to be disabled. https://ibb.co/hS4N45 .

i had the same issue then i used the extension crx file to add it on launch by using :
options.add_extension("idmgcext.crx")
the crx file is in the same folder as the script or provide full path if in another folder you can get chrome extension crx file using this site: https://chrome-extension-downloader.com/

Python automatic web test tool with selenium: download file in firefox

I have a web test tool developed with python using selenium 3 api. I run it in Firefox. There's a part in the website permits to download a tar.gz file. I want that the test tool download the file in a specified local folder without displaying popup download window.
So in init step and before opening the browser I added some preferences to the profile of Firefox like that:
profile = webdriver.FirefoxProfile()
profile.set_preference('browser.helperApps.neverAsk.saveToDisk', 'application/x-gzip')
profile.set_preference("browser.download.folderList",2)
profile.set_preference("browser.helperApps.alwaysAsk.force", False)
profile.set_preference("browser.download.dir", downloadPath)
profile.set_preference("browser.download.manager.showWhenStarting", False)
But this code doesn't prevent displaying the download window and always ask me where to download the file.
In addition if check preferences of Firefox while test running I find that Downloads setting is save to Downloads folder not like what is set in browser.download.dir parameter.
Is there any idea to fixe this problem?

Selenium Firefox webdriverdriver: extension (IETab v2) configurations - Python

Python v2.7 and Selenium I guess it is v2.49 (current last version)
I was able to add the extension (IETab V2):
profile=FirefoxProfile(profilePath)
profile.add_extension(extension=extensionPath)
driver = webdriver.Firefox(firefox_profile=profile)
Im normally able to configure the extension (when Im not using the browser through webdriver) and the configurations are there everytime I open the browser (Im setting the websites to be opened with IETab). However, when I open the browser through webdriver although the extension is there I lose the configurations.
Any idea how to keep the extensions configs when loading the browser through webdriver?
Thanks.

Most firefox extensions keep their settings in the profile settings. You can access those by typing about:config in your url bar. Find the corresponding settings and set them manually on your FirefoxProfile instance. If there's too many settings, search for prefs.js in your firefox profile directory. That's a snapshot of the settings in plain text from the last time you closed the browser.

Cannot create browser process when using selenium from python on RHEL5

I'm trying to use selenium from python but I'm having a problem running it on a RHEL5.5 server. I don't seem to be able to really start firefox.
from selenium import webdriver
b = webdriver.Firefox()
On my laptop with ubuntu this works fine and it starts a brings up a firefox window. When I log in to the server with ssh I can run firefox from the command line and get it displayed on my laptop. It is clearly firefox from the server since it has the RHEL5.5 home page.
When I run the python script above on the server it (or run it in ipython) the script hangs at webdriver.Firefox()
I have also tried
from selenium import webdriver
fb = webdriver.FirefoxProfile()
fb.native_events_enabled=True
b=webdriver.Firefox(fb)
Which also hangs on the final line there.
I'm using python2.7 installed in /opt/python2.7. In installed selenium with /opt/python2.7/pip-2.7.
I can see the firefox process on the server with top and it is using a lot of CPU. I can also see from /proc/#/environ that the DISPLAY is set to localhost:10.0 which seems right.
How can I get a browser started with selenium on RHEL5.5? How can I figure out why Firefox is not starting?

It looks like the problem I'm encountering is this selenium bug:
http://code.google.com/p/selenium/issues/detail?id=2852
I used the fix described in comment #9 http://code.google.com/p/selenium/issues/detail?id=2852#c9
That worked for me.
