Answer 1

I was also suffering from the same issue. Finally I resolved it by setting binary value in capabilites as shown below. At run time it uses this value so it is must to set.

DesiredCapabilities capability = DesiredCapabilities.firefox();
capability.setCapability("platform", Platform.ANY);
capability.setCapability("binary", "/ms/dist/fsf/PROJ/firefox/16.0.0/bin/firefox"); //for linux

//capability.setCapability("binary", "C:\\Program Files\\Mozilla  Firefox\\msfirefox.exe"); //for windows                
WebDriver    currentDriver = new RemoteWebDriver(new URL("http://localhost:4444/wd/hub"), capability);

And you are done!!! Happy coding :)
