Chromium and Chromedriver do not work correctly, permission denied

I'm trying to automate some features with php-chrome library.

I need to use chromium.chromedriver installed on my server.

So I installed these apps.

root@afs2:~#: google-chrome --version
Google Chrome 116.0.5845.140

and

root@afs2:~# chromedriver --version
ChromeDriver 116.0.5845.96 (1a391816688002153ef791ffe60d9e899a71a037-refs/branch-heads/5845@{#1382})

But when I try to use chromedriver, I have this errors:

Fatal error: Uncaught RuntimeException: Chrome process stopped before startup completed. Additional info: cmd_run.go:1046: WARNING: cannot create user data directory: cannot update the 'current' symlink of "/var/www/snap/chromium/current": remove /var/www/snap/chromium/current: permission denied Sorry, home directories outside of /home needs configuration.

Does anyone know how can I fix this?

Thanks in advance

given that you're using chrome-php , my best guess is that you have a problem with your \HeadlessChromium\BrowserFactory .. first run in in the terminal

type google-chrome

you should get something like

google-chrome is /snap/bin/google-chrome

then take the path from that and give it to your BrowserFactory:

$browserFactory = new \HeadlessChromium\BrowserFactory('/snap/bin/google-chrome');

and given that your google-chrome --version worked, the BrowserFactory should also be able to work with this google-chrome binary :)
