cdp mode in container without noroot user.

[serg-sno]

Hello, and thank you for your project!
SeleniumBase works perfectly in CDP mode in Kubernetes when run as the root user, but when I try to run it as a non-root user, I get an error.
selenium.common.exceptions.SessionNotCreatedException: Message: session not created: cannot connect to chrome at 127.0.0.1:9222
Could you please advise if it’s possible to run SeleniumBase without root privileges?

Sounds like Chrome might not be in the default location for non-root users.
Try setting the binary_location arg with the location of Chrome when using a non-root user.
If that doesn't help, then there are probably missing permissions that are needed.

UC Mode / CDP Mode require more permissions than regular mode because of launching Chrome from the command-line, and for modifying the default chromedriver to turn it into uc_driver.

As I understand, Chrome should use --no-sandbox flag. But there is no option to set sandbox parameter to False for cdp here: source

It’s already set when using Linux from SB():

chrome_options.add_argument("--no-sandbox")
