Solution 1

If you fix the version compatibility. You need to adjust the PHP Code to this and that works:

$options = new ChromeOptions();
$options->setBinary("/usr/bin/google-chrome");
$options->addArguments(["--headless","--disable-gpu", "--no-sandbox"]);

/*webdriver.chrome.verboseLogging*/

$caps = DesiredCapabilities::chrome();
$caps->setCapability(ChromeOptions::CAPABILITY, $options);
$caps->setPlatform("Linux");
$host = 'http://localhost:4444/wd/hub/';

$driver = RemoteWebDriver::create($host, $caps);

$driver->get('http://www.ende.de');
var_dump($driver->getTitle());
$driver->quit();

Solution 2

As per the error stack trace you have provided your main error is :

java.lang.RuntimeException: org.seleniumhq.jetty9.io.EofException at org.openqa.selenium.remote.server.ServletResponseWrappingHttpResponse.setContent(ServletResponseWrappingHttpResponse.java:91)

Which implies that a RuntimeException occured during handling of HttpResponse .

However your main issue is the version compatibility among the binaries you are using as follows :

You are using chromedriver=v2.9 which is pretty ancient.
Release Notes of chromedriver=2.9 clearly mentions the following :

Supports Chrome v31-34

Your Chrome Browser version is unknown to us but possibly v60.x as you are trying to use headless.
You are using Selenium Version 3.9.1 .
Your JDK version is unknown to us.

So there is a clear mismatch between the ChromeDriver version (v2.33) and the matching requirement of Chrome Browser version (v60-62)

Solution

Upgrade JDK to recent levels JDK Version 8 Update 151.
Upgrade Selenium to current levels Version 3.9.1.
Upgrade ChromeDriver to ChromeDriver v2.35 level.
Keep Chrome Browser to v64.x levels. (as per ChromeDriver v2.35 release notes)
Incase your Chrome Browser base version is older, try to uninstall Chrome Browser through Revo Uninstaller and install the required recent GA released version of the Chrome Browser .
Clear the Browser Cache before your Test Excution .
Run CCleaner tool before and after execution of your Test Suites .
Execute your Test.

I try using Selenium and Chromewebdriver with PHP Facebooks Webdriver on a Debian Jessie. I dont know but the Session will not start.

I Installed Java SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_161-b12) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.161-b12, mixed mode) and Selenium version: '3.9.1', revision: '63f7b50' and ChromeDriver (v2.9.248304).

I i start Selenium with the call java -Dwebdriver.chrome.driver/srv/www/XXXX/build/chromedriver -jar selenium-server-standalone-3.9.1.jar

the result seems to be ok for me.

06:42:17.240 INFO - Selenium build info: version: '3.9.1', revision: '63f7b50' 06:42:17.241 INFO - Launching a standalone Selenium Server on port 4444 2018-02-09 06:42:17.378:INFO::main: Logging initialized @498ms to org.seleniumhq.jetty9.util.log.StdErrLog 2018-02-09 06:42:17.536:INFO:osjs.Server:main: jetty-9.4.7.v20170914, build timestamp: 2017-11-21T12:27:37-09:00, git hash: 82b8fb23f757335bb3329d540ce37a2a2615f0a8 2018-02-09 06:42:17.585:WARN:osjs.SecurityHandler:main: [email protected]@3b0143d3{/,null,STARTING} has uncovered http methods for path: / 2018-02-09 06:42:17.596:INFO:osjsh.ContextHandler:main: Started o.s.j.s.ServletContextHandler@3b0143d3{/,null,AVAILABLE} 2018-02-09 06:42:17.642:INFO:osjs.AbstractConnector:main: Started ServerConnector@596c6acf{HTTP/1.1,[http/1.1]}{0.0.0.0:4444} 2018-02-09 06:42:17.643:INFO:osjs.Server:main: Started @763ms 06:42:17.643 INFO - Selenium Server is up and running on port 4444

If I run following PHP Code
```
try{
            $options = new ChromeOptions();
            $options->setBinary("/srv/www/XXXX/build/chromedriver");
            //$options->addArguments(["--headless", "--window-size=571,42"]);

                /*webdriver.chrome.verboseLogging*/

            $caps = DesiredCapabilities::chrome();
            $caps->setCapability(ChromeOptions::CAPABILITY, $options);
            $caps->setPlatform("Linux");
            $host = 'http://localhost:4444/wd/hub/';

            $driver = RemoteWebDriver::create($host, $caps);

            $driver->get('http://www.ende.de/');
            $driver->quit();

        } catch (\Exception $e){
            echo $e->getMessage();
        }
```
As result i get

Curl error thrown for http POST to /session with params: {"desiredCapabilities":{"browserName":"chrome","platform":"Linux","chromeOptions":{"binary":"/srv/www/XXXX/build/chromedriver","args":["--headless","--window-size=571,42"]}}}

I don`t know whats wrong. I tried to install chrome but no effect. It is also not possible to start a chrome session though the Webinterface. I tried different Versions of Chromewebdriver and Selenium as well. Has anybody an idea what I am missing?
Patrick Müssig about 6 years

The chrome Version is already 64.0 but the Chromedriver version was not correct. I Installed the ChromeDriver v2.35. But that wasnt the hole solution.
Mike Harrison about 6 years

@PatrickMüssig did you ever figure out a solution? I'm getting the same error...if so can you add as an answer?
Patrick Müssig about 6 years

yes I added the solution as new post here: link

I confirm that this works - I was using Chrome Version 67.0.3396.87 (Official Build) (64-bit) on ubuntu Ubuntu 16.04.4 LTS with ChromeDriver 2.40.565383 in headless mode without "--disable-gpu", "--no-sandbox" arguments and I was getting all sorts of errors. I added these arguments and $caps->setPlatform("Linux"); and now it is working again. I don't really know which of these is really responsible.
