Error from selenium : AttributeError: 'Service' object has no attribute 'process'

Question

I was learning selenium for python automation, but I am stuck with following error. Can anyone please help me?

This is my code:

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
website = 'https://www.adamchoi.co.uk/overs/detailed'
path = r"C:\Users\User\Downloads\Compressed\chromedriver"
driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=Service(path))
driver.get(website)
driver.quit()

Error log,

Traceback (most recent call last): File "e:/[ FreeCourseWeb.com ] Udemy - Web Scraping Course in Python - BS4, Selenium and Scrapy/~Get Your Files Here !/Python-Bots-and-Web-Scrapping-Projects/Scraping using selenium/selenium_scrapper.py", line 5, in driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=Service(path)) File "C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python38\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\chrome\webdriver.py", line 81, in init super().init( File "C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python38\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\chromium\webdriver.py", line 103, in init self.service.start() File "C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python38\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\common\service.py", line 106, in start PS C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0> & "C:/Program Files/Python38/python.exe" "e:/[ FreeCourseWeb.com ] Udemy - Web Scraping Course in Python - BS4, Selenium and Scrapy/~Get Your Files Here !/Python-Bots-and-Web-Scrapping-Projects/Scraping using selenium/selenium_scrapper.py" Traceback (most recent call last): File "e:/[ FreeCourseWeb.com ] Udemy - Web Scraping Course in Python - BS4, Selenium and Scrapy/~Get Your Files Here !/Python-Bots-and-Web-Scrapping-Projects/Scraping using selenium/selenium_scrapper.py", line 5, in driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=Service(path)) File "C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python38\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\chrome\webdriver.py", line 81, in init super().init( File "C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python38\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\chromium\webdriver.py", line 103, in init self.service.start() File "C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python38\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\common\service.py", line 106, in start

I see you are working on Windows OS computer.
If so, path should include exe executable file extension.
In your case:

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
website = 'https://www.adamchoi.co.uk/overs/detailed'
path = "C:\Users\User\Downloads\Compressed\chromedriver.exe"
driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=Service(path))
driver.get(website)

My working code is:

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

options = Options()
options.add_argument("start-maximized")

webdriver_service = Service('C:\webdrivers\chromedriver.exe')
driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=options, service=webdriver_service)

Where C:\webdrivers\chromedriver.exe is the actual location of chromedriver.exe

in my case (Windows OS) this works:

    from selenium import webdriver
    from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service

    path =r"C:\path\chromedriver_win32\chromedriver.exe"
    service = Service(executable_path=path)
    driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=service)
    web = 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1982_FIFA_World_Cup'
    driver.get(web)

Cheers.
