Protractor : E/launcher - Error: WebDriverError: Timed out waiting for driver server to start

Am facing 'Unable to start a WebDriver session' when trying to execute protractor tests through chrome.After trying out all the below options, am posting here for a solution :

  1. Triggered the run with latest and earlier versions of chrome browser and driver
  2. Manually placed chromedriver in webdriver-manager/selenium path.

3.added chromeOptions: { binary: "/Applications/Google Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google Chrome"}

Please let me know how to resolve this issue .Current O.S is Catalina : 10.15.7.

Below is the error :

$ protractor config.js

[13:26:19] I/launcher - Running 1 instances of WebDriver [13:26:19] I/local - Starting selenium standalone server...
