Automatic chrome download does not seem to work?

[Fichtelcoder]

I have a simple repro:

Cargo.toml

[package]
name = "basic_pdf"
version = "0.1.0"
edition = "2021"

[dependencies]
headless_chrome = { version = "0.9.0", features= ["fetch"] }

main.rs

use headless_chrome::{Browser, LaunchOptionsBuilder};

fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    let launch_opts = LaunchOptionsBuilder::default()
        .headless(true)
        .build()?;
    let browser = Browser::new(launch_opts)?;

    println!("Wohoo we have a browser.");

    let tab = browser.wait_for_initial_tab()?;

    let wikidata = tab
        .navigate_to("https://www.wikipedia.org")?
        .wait_until_navigated()?
        .print_to_pdf(None)?;
    std::fs::write("wiki.pdf", &wikidata)?;
    println!("PDF successfully created from internet web page.");

    Ok(())
}

when I run this using cargo run, the application hangs for about 5 minutes and then finally exits with:

Error: Compat { error: NoAvailablePorts }

Version 0.9.0 on macos. I also tried:

headless_chrome = { git = "https://github.com/atroche/rust-headless-chrome", features= ["fetch"] }

but it does not build due to a missing dependency.

Can you try the github version again this PR #293 fixed the fetcher.

[Fichtelcoder]

Yes, I think the fetcher might work now (not exactly sure how to test it), but whenever I try to use this version, I now get this panic which does not occur when I use a chromium version from a path:

Error: There are no available ports between 8000 and 9000 for debugging

[frederikhors]

I think we can close this.

Just for future reference, this is manifesting for me if I run as root without the --no-sandbox flag and I pushed a fix on this PR:
