I can't launch a session using Protractor

I am on Windows 10

  1. I installed Node.js
  2. use npm install -g protractor
  3. did webdriver-manager update
  4. chromedriver is 2.21 and up to date according to update

Issue: When I try to launch a session using (the example on protractortest.org tutorial)

protractor conf.js

I get the following exception and a blank chrome browser with "data:," in the address bar

12:57:10.037 WARN - Exception thrown java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException Build info: version: '2.52.0', revision: '4c2593c', time: '2016-02-11 19:06:42' System info: host: 'ADOAN-790', ip: '172.18.7.104', os.name: 'Windows 10', os.arch: 'x86', os.version: '10.0', java.version: '1.8.0_73' Driver info: driver.version: unknown

For Chrome 53+ you need to have at least chromedriver 2.25 installed (source). And, since protractor sort of "ships"/"depends on" a particular version of chromedriver through webdriver-manager package, you need to update Protractor to at least 4.0.10 which has chromedriver 2.25 configured. If using global protractor:

npm cache clean
npm install -g protractor
webdriver-manager update

If using local:

npm cache clean
npm install protractor
webdriver-manager update

You need to manually update chrome driver, that's not the latest version. Try updating to the latest Chromedriver package:

npm install chromedriver@^2.25

Don't forget to -g or --save-dev depending on your requirements.

Edit

Try copying the chromedriver.exe from /node_modules/chromedriver/lib/chromedriver to /node_modules/selenium/ (<-- not sure about this path, but I think you just need to find the 2.21 exe and replace it with the latest one)
