Image(s): selenium/standalone-chrome-debug

Docker-Selenium Image Version(s): 3.12.0-boron

Docker Version: 18.03.0-ce

OS: Ubuntu 16.04.4

Expected Behavior -

Running Chrome with --user-data-dir=/home/seluser/userdata when the folder already has user data from previous runs should work. This works in 3.12.0-americium.

Actual Behavior -

selenium.webdriver.Remote times out after 60 seconds with WebDriverException: Message: chrome not reachable

probably the most well-written issue the selenium repository has ever seen. thanks for this! :tada:

regarding your issue - just some thinker questions... what's the purpose of re-using a user-data-dir?

Also to point out that the difference between 3.12.0-americium and 3.12.0-boron in Chrome related terms is the Chrome version (from 66 to 67) and the ChromeDriver version (from 2.38 to 2.39).

I think the issue could be related to one of those upgrades.
