Web scraping with selenium works fine on my mac local machine but when I push to live Ubuntu server, I get the following error
Could not get version for Chrome with this command: google-chrome --version || google-chrome-stable --version
when I try to run
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager chrome_options = Options() chrome_options.add_argument("--headless") driver = webdriver.Chrome(ChromeDriverManager().install(), options=chrome_options)
The code is deployed on AWS ec2 instance

Answer
As stated by @gore in the comments installing chromium-chromedriver on ubuntu server worked for me
On Ubuntu 20.04
pip install selenium sudo apt-get update sudo apt install chromium-chromedriver
