Selenium cannot connect to chromedriver

Here is my code. Works perfectly on local machine but in pythonanywhere I am getting this error.

Code:

from seleniumbase import Driver
    driver = Driver(uc=True, headless=True, no_sandbox=True, disable_gpu=True)
    
        try:
            driver.get('https://google.com/')
            print("Page title was '{}'".format(driver.title))
        finally:
            driver.quit()

Error:

Before I tried directly undetected_chromedriver it was giving same error too. import undetected_chromedriver as uc

options = uc.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument("--disable-extensions")
options.add_argument('--disable-application-cache')
options.add_argument('--disable-gpu')
options.add_argument("--no-sandbox")
options.add_argument("--headless")
options.add_argument("--disable-setuid-sandbox")
options.add_argument("--disable-dev-shm-usage")
options.add_argument("--incognito")

driver = uc.Chrome(options=options)
    with driver:
        driver.get('https://google.com')

This code works in pythonanywhere

from sbvirtualdisplay import Display
from seleniumbase import Driver

display = Display(visible=0, size=(1440, 1880))
display.start()

driver = Driver(uc=True, headless=False, incognito=True)
try:
    driver.uc_open_with_reconnect("https://google.com/", 3)
finally:
    driver.quit()

display.stop()

Use SB() instead of Driver() so that you get the built-in virtual display that you need when running on a Linux Server that has no GUI:

from seleniumbase import SB

with SB(uc=True, xvfb=True) as sb:
    sb.driver.get("https://google.com/")
    print("Page title was '{}'".format(sb.driver.title))

(Otherwise you'll need to use https://github.com/mdmintz/sbVirtualDisplay)

If for some reason xvfb=True didn't work for you, use headless2=True instead. From all the Linux environments I've seen, either xvfb=True OR headless2=True does the trick when using the SB() format.

If you're sticking with the Driver() format, then know how to use sbvirtualdisplay correctly:

from sbvirtualdisplay import Display
from seleniumbase import Driver

display = Display(visible=0, size=(1440, 1880))
display.start()

driver = Driver(uc=True, headless=False, incognito=True)
try:
    driver.uc_open_with_reconnect("https://google.com/", 3)
finally:
    driver.quit()

display.stop()

(That overrides the default headless mode on Linux and forces your script to go through the virtual display instead.)

Also note that sometimes, WebDriverException: Message: unknown error: cannot connect to chrome at 127.0.0.1:9222 from chrome not reachable means that Chrome wasn't installed on the machine already. If that's the case, make sure that Chrome gets installed first.
