I'm trying to use PhantomJS with Python in my Windows 7, but is not working! Here what i tried to do.
First, i installed webdriver. In the following code Firefox opens normally, so i believe webdrive is correctly installed.
from selenium import webdriver browser = webdriver.Firefox() browser.get('http://seleniumhq.org/')
Then, i downloaded PhantomJS from the official website, unpacked it and put it in c:\Phantomjs. Then i added it in Environment Variables. Here what is in there:
C:\Phantom\phantomjs-2.0.0-windows\bin
So, when i type "phantomjs" in my terminal, it starts normally. But the following code gives me an error:
from selenium import webdriver browser = webdriver.PhantomJS( )
Error message:
Exception ignored in: > Traceback (most recent call last): File "c:Python34\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\common\service.py", line 136, in del File "c:Python34\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\common\service.py", line 124, in stop AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'close'
And here if i change a little bit the code:
from selenium import webdriver browser = webdriver.PhantomJS(executable_path='C:\Phantom\phantomjs-2.0.0-windows\bin\phantomjs.exe')
Error message:

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

How can i fix it?
