Did not get session redirect from chromedriver ON A MAC/ com.android.browser is not installed on device

Hey there,

  1. I get this error on a MAC. I found lots of posts that has a fix for Windows. Can anyone please suggest how to fix this on a mac?
    Error: Did not get session redirect from Chromedriver at null. (/Applications/Appium.app/Contents/Resources/node_modules/appium/lib/devices/android/chromedriver.js:223:12)

Chromedriver create session did not work. Status was 200 and body was {“sessionId”:“0a194666908b859efc7b3dd6ab3c4749”,“status”:13,“value”:{“message”:“unknown error: com.android.browser is not installed on device 72c64162\n (Driver info: chromedriver=2.14.313457 (3d645c400edf2e2c500566c9aa096063e707c9cf),platform=Mac OS X 10.10.3 x86_64)”}}

  1. How do I check the contents of appium.dmg file to check the chrome driver?
  2. When I install Appium,dmg, it installs appium.exe file in the applications. How do I find the node_modules?

regards
Priya

Hi Priya,

Please replace your chrome driver from http://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/index.html

Path : Applications ▸ Appium ▸ Contents ▸ Resources ▸ node_modules ▸ appium ▸ build ▸ chromedriver

Go to Applications > Mouse right click on Appium > show package contents > then navigate to above mentioned path.

Replace with 2-3 versions of chromedriver until it works.
