Hi folks,

I have encountered below issue while "yarn" process is ongoing at Blueprint. As well as, I have successfully using the theia platform.

I did remove the node modules directory and running the "yarn" command, unfortunately result is the same.
I have tried on Windows PC and Mac Pc . Am I missing a big step as well as known by all developers? I'm not sure.

I'd be appreciated to any response for find a way.

@RagipSelcuk that isn't really how dependencies work, you can't modify stuff under node_modules (which is installed through yarn) and expect them to persist. If you need a newer version of electron-chromedriver then you should pull a newer version by updating the version range or using yarn resolutions.

@RagipSelcuk thank you for the discussion, I haven't noticed or encountered the issue before.
Am I correct that you did the following:

fresh clone: git clone [email protected]:eclipse-theia/theia-blueprint.git
move to the theia-blueprint directory
perform yarn

The following works correctly for me, I tried both on Linux and MacOS.
I'm using node at version v16.14.0.

@vince-fugnitto I double checked the proxy setting but it is a little bit complicated.

When I check the output of the yarn, it doesn't get response from version of the electron driver.
"https://github.com/electron/electron/releases/download/v9.0.0/chromedriver-v9.0.0-darwin-arm64.zip"

I checked of the chrome driver V9.0.0 and I could not see the 'chromedriver-v9.0.0-darwin-arm64.zip' suffix.
V9.0.0 only includes below file.
chromedriver-v9.0.0-darwin-x64.zip

is there any way to change of the yarn progress of url definition?

By the way, the latest version of the electron has the correct name convention of the "-darwin-arm64.zip" suffix.
chromedriver-v24.3.1-darwin-arm64.zip

Regards.

Do you mean what they express in the readme? https://github.com/electron/chromedriver#custom-mirror

Hi again,

Yes, I mean this approach. But unfortunately it is not solved . I have still same situation.

I followed the below steps one by one.

I changed the "version:24.3.1" instead of "version:9.0.0" in package.json file at /theia-blueprint/node_modules/electron-chromedriver location.

{
  "name": "electron-chromedriver",
  "version": "24.3.1",
  "description": "Electron ChromeDriver",
  "repository": "https://github.com/electron/chromedriver",
  "bin": {
    "chromedriver": "./chromedriver.js"
  },
  "scripts": {
    "install": "node ./download-chromedriver.js",
    "lint": "standard --fix",
    "test": "standard && mocha"
  },
  "engines": {
    "node": ">=10.12.0"
  },
  "author": "Kevin Sawicki",
  "license": "MIT",
  "dependencies": {
    "@electron/get": "^1.12.2",
    "extract-zip": "^2.0.0"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "mocha": "^7.1.2",
    "standard": "^13.1.0"
  }
}

I succesfully installed the "version:24.3.1" . As I said previous comments "version:9.0.0" does not include "-darwin-arm64.zip"

After installation is completed. I turn back to top directory and typed the "yarn" but yarn working with fresh packages and rollback again to the "version:9.0.0"

GotError [HTTPError]: Response code 404 (Not Found) for https://github.com/electron/electron/releases/download/v9.0.0/**chromedriver-v9.0.0-darwin-arm64.zip**

How can I change the fresh package version with different way? I also tried to environmental setting change but it doesn't work.
I checked "https://github.com/electron/electron/releases/" page again and checked the version 9.0.0 and chromedriver-v9.0.0-darwin-arm64.zip file doesn't exist.

is there any suggestion ? thanks a lot

Hi @vince-fugnitto,

Thank you for patiently listening to me. version range worked for me.

Here is what I have changed;

Change directory to "theia-blueprint/applications/electron"
Updated the package.json as below to "electron-chromedriver": "11.0.0",

  "devDependencies": {
    "@theia/cli": "1.37.0",
    "@types/js-yaml": "^3.12.0",
    "@types/yargs": "17.0.7",
    "@wdio/cli": "^6.10.2",
    "@wdio/local-runner": "^6.10.2",
    "@wdio/mocha-framework": "^6.8.0",
    "@wdio/spec-reporter": "^6.8.1",
    "app-builder-lib": "22.10.5",
    "chai": "^4.2.0",
    "electron": "^23.2.4",
    "electron-builder": "23.6.0",
    "electron-chromedriver": "11.0.0",
    "electron-mocha": "^9.3.2",
    "js-yaml": "^3.12.0",
    "mocha": "^8.2.1",
    "rimraf": "^2.7.1",
    "ts-node": "^10.0.0",
    "wdio-chromedriver-service": "^6.0.4",

Changed directory to "theia-blueprint"

Edit: yarn process is successfully completed with electron-chromedriver": "11.0.0".

Thanks a lot.

Hi @vince-fugnitto
I experienced the same issue and had to change the Chrome driver version to 11 for the attached video to work.
