Firefox custom profile doesn't work [Python]

I want to set a custom profile for Firefox using Selenium module. Here is my code:

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys

class oo1():
    def __init__(self, url):
        self.url = url

    def fps(self):
        print 'running fp'
        self.profile = webdriver.FirefoxProfile()
        self.profile.set_preference('network.proxy.type', '1')
        self.profile.set_preference('network.proxy.socks_remote_dns', 'true')
        self.profile.set_preference('network.cookie.cookieBehaviour', '2')
        self.profile.set_preference('javascript.enabled', 'False')
        self.profile.update_preferences()
    def driverr(self):
        print 'running'
        self.web = webdriver.Firefox(firefox_profile=self.profile)
        self.web.get(self.url)


s = oo1('127.0.0.1')
s.fps()
s.driverr()

When I run the above code, Firefox runs properly but none of the settings that I wrote above are applied to the Firefox.

What is the problem and How do I fix that?

Multiple issues here:

  • the setting is called network.cookie.cookieBehavior (no u there)
  • javascript.enabled is a frozen preference and cannot be changed

Fixed version:

self.profile = webdriver.FirefoxProfile()
self.profile.set_preference('network.proxy.type', 1)
self.profile.set_preference('network.proxy.socks_remote_dns', True)
self.profile.set_preference('network.cookie.cookieBehavior', 2)
self.profile.set_preference('javascript.enabled', False)
self.profile.update_preferences()
