Running Phantomjs On Linux Using Python

I followed this link and now when I type phan and then tab (\t) it does autocomplete to phantomJS. Yet if I run phantomJS -v or phantomJS --version I get: bash: /usr/local/bin/phan

Solution 1:

It very much sounds like a 64 vs 32 bits issue.

To find out whats the version of your ubuntu, you can run

$ uname -i
x86_64

Then make sure to download the correct version of phantom

• 32 bits version: https://bitbucket.org/ariya/phantomjs/downloads/phantomjs-2.1.1-linux-i686.tar.bz2
• 64 bits version: https://bitbucket.org/ariya/phantomjs/downloads/phantomjs-2.1.1-linux-x86_64.tar.bz2

Also make sure your lib are corresponding to the version of your OS.

Solution 2:

You can check out this link.

driver = webdriver.PhantomJS(executable_path='Complete path/to/phantomjs.exe')

It worked well for me.
