[🐛 Bug]: Download of chromedriver fails with socket exception 10054

[olafrose]

What happened?

After the latest chrome update selenium manager can't download the correct chrome webdriver anymore.
While trying to diagnose the problem I found the following:

Running
./selenium-manager.exe --browser chrome --debug
in a powershell on windows 11 i get the following output:
DEBUG chromedriver not found in PATH DEBUG chrome detected at C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe DEBUG Running command: wmic datafile where name='C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Google\\Chrome\\Application\\chrome.exe' get Version /value DEBUG Output: "\r\r\n\r\r\nVersion=117.0.5938.89\r\r\n\r\r\n\r\r\n\r" DEBUG Detected browser: chrome 117.0.5938.89 DEBUG Discovering versions from https://googlechromelabs.github.io/chrome-for-testing/known-good-versions-with-downloads.json DEBUG Required driver: chromedriver 117.0.5938.88 DEBUG Downloading chromedriver 117.0.5938.88 from https://edgedl.me.gvt1.com/edgedl/chrome/chrome-for-testing/117.0.5938.88/win64/chromedriver-win64.z ip ERROR error sending request for url (https://edgedl.me.gvt1.com/edgedl/chrome/chrome-for-testing/117.0.5938.88/win64/chromedriver-win64.zip): error tr ying to connect: Eine vorhandene Verbindung wurde vom Remotehost geschlossen. (os error 10054)

As this looked like a proxy config issue to me at first glance i tried to wget the chromedriver zip and - targetting the exact same URI where selenium manager failed wget downloaded the file without issues.

How can we reproduce the issue?

`./selenium-manager.exe --browser chrome --debug`

Is it a problem from the last Chrome update or from a Selenium update? Selenium Manager isn't downloading from a different location.

Is it always failing, or intermittent?
Are you using the same user/permissions for wget as for running the Selenium code?

It might be related to proxy settings: https://www.selenium.dev/documentation/selenium_manager/#configuration

[olafrose]

The machine running the tests is behind an autoproxy, so if selenium manager doesn't automatically respect these settings i need a way to configure it to use the autoproxy. I don't see that option in the CLI parameters, so any hints there would be appreciated.

I haven't noticed the error before updating selenium, but then i haven't ran the tests in quite some time because our test manager was away...

Right now it is always failing and the same user that runs the wget also is used to execute the tests.

Ah, I know selenium supports with setProxyAutoconfigUrl
We need to investigate for rust implementation.
