I am running selenium on python and I have firefox installed.
When I try to open firefox with selenium Certification I am getting a nasty error. My code is running fine on my main machine (win10) but when I run it on a virtual machine (win7) I get this error:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Python35-32\python.exe" C:/Users/win7.PC/Desktop/Kijiji/kijiji.py

I've upgraded python, selenium and I tried with firefox 47, 46 and even 28 :(
I attempted to change the PATH:
from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Firefox(path="C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\Firefox.exe")
It indicated that 'path' is not a valid input
attempted to change binary path like so:
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.firefox_binary import FirefoxBinary
binary = FirefoxBinary('C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\Firefox.exe')
driver = webdriver.Firefox(firefox_binary=binary)
Still same issue.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
