I fail to drive Firefox from Selenium with geckodriver. This is odd, because chrome is driven with same framework without errors!
These are my Version numbers:
Firefox 54.0 (64-bit)
Chrome Version 62.0.3202.94 (Official Build) (64-bit)
selenium-server-standalone-3.7.1.jar
client-combined-3.5.3-nodeps.jar
geckodriver-v0.19.1-linux64
chromedriver_linux64
Ubuntu 16.10
The error I get from Selenium webdriver with java is the following:
--------------------------------Error:
leder@leder-VirtualBox:~/Source/SeleniumCheese/bin$ ./execute_grid.sh

This is my setup, where firefox is broken and chrome is OK:
Grid_SetUp.java
package de.auticon.selenium_server;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.remote.DesiredCapabilities;
import org.openqa.selenium.remote.RemoteWebDriver;
import java.net.MalformedURLException;
import java.net.URL;
public class Grid_SetUp {
public static WebDriver driver;
public static void main(String[] args) throws MalformedURLException, InterruptedException{
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","/opt/selenium/chromedriver");
String URL = "http://www.google.de";
String Node = "http://192.168.40.40:4444/wd/hub";
DesiredCapabilities cap = DesiredCapabilities.firefox();
driver = new RemoteWebDriver(new URL(Node), cap);
driver.navigate().to(URL);
WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.name("q"));
//Enter something to search for
element.sendKeys("Cheese!");
// Now submit the form. WebDriver will find the form for us from the element
element.submit();
// Check the title of the page
System.out.println("Page title is: " + driver.getTitle());
Thread.sleep(5000);
driver.quit();
}
}
selenium_grid.sh:
#!/bin/bash
java -jar /opt/selenium/selenium-server-standalone-3.7.1.jar -role hub &
java -Dwebdriver.gecko.driver=/opt/selenium/geckodriver -jar /opt/selenium/selenium-server-standalone-3.7.1.jar -role webdriver -hub http://192.168.40.40:4444/grid/register -nodeConfig /opt/selenium/defaultNodeConfig.json -browser "browserName=firefox,platform=LINUX" &
execute_grid.sh:
#!/bin/bash
java -cp ".:/opt/selenium/selenium-server-standalone-3.7.1.jar" de.auticon.selenium_server.Grid_SetUp
I updated the question for working configuration now. But when running the firefox Selenium TC the TC completes, unfortunately the server ends with an error message "session not created":

A few words about Selenium Grid
Configuration:
You mentioned your Test Bed
as selenium-server-standalone-3.7.1.jar
and client-combined-3.5.3-nodeps.jar
. As per Best Practices
, you should use either of the following not both
Always try to use the latest released version i.e. selenium-server-standalone-3.7.1.jar
In selenium_grid.sh:
you need to change the following :
java -Dwebdriver.gecko.driver=/opt/selenium/geckodriver
