i coded discord bot in python, that is basically webscraping chat gpt 3.5 and sending answers to my discord server. It works on windows 11, but no matter what i do, i cant run it on my ubuntu server. Here is code that is outputting error (everything to line 25):
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import undetected_chromedriver as uc
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By # target
import discord
from discord.ext import commands
client = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!", intents=discord.Intents.all())
import time
# files
#import login
options = uc.ChromeOptions()
options.headless = False
chrome = uc.Chrome(options=options)
as i said it works on windows but when i run it on my ubuntu server (using this command: xvfb-run --server-args="-screen 0 1920x1080x24" python3 AiSupport.py, i need xvfb so i can run it in headful mode, undetected chrome driver doesent really work in headless mode
) it gives this error:
ubuntu@instance-20230620-2312:~/bot$ xvfb-run --server-args="-screen 0 1920x1080 x24" python3 AiSupport.py

i tried updating python and modules on my ubuntu server, didnt work
You can use SeleniumBase's UC Mode as an alternative, which has a slightly modified version of undetected-chromedriver.
First pip install seleniumbase. Then run the following script with python:
from seleniumbase import SB
with SB(uc=True) as sb:
sb.driver.get("https://nowsecure.nl/#relax")
sb.sleep(3)
It automatically configures settings based on the environment. For example, it knows when to use Xvfb in a headless Linux environment.
