The driver is not executable for Chromedriver

I've tried setting the chromedriver permission and flagging it as executable. I set the PATH variable as well but still get this error. What other steps can I take to troubleshoot the issue? I'm running Jenkins with Git on an EC2 Linux instance.

java.lang.IllegalStateException: The driver is not executable: /var/lib/jenkins/workspace/Selenium TestNG ANT Build - Git/chromedriver.exe

The chromedriver.exe is a Windows executable, not for Linux. Download the Linux version and try again.

If you still get the error after downloading the Linux version of chromedriver, use terminal / bash to navigate to the directory containing the driver and type:

chmod +x chromedriver
