[WittyjonWitty]

Script times out after hanging on login, after HB username and password have been entered. See log below

I am getting the same error, but I've already logged in and was re-running it after this month's drop. Deleting the session files did not fix it. This error seems to be the culprit, selenium.common.exceptions.TimeoutException: Message: script timeout. My stacktrace is the same as you.

Download this chromedriver 114.0.5735.90 for windows, unzip it and place the chromedriver in the same folder as the python script, it should work after that.

This is due to Chrome v115 and above becoming quite obvious to Cloudflare's bot detection with their new 'Chrome for Testing' mode. I'm working on a fix to make it so this doesn't fail so silently going forwards.

As a hotfix, I've made it so the script prefers FirefoxDriver as that seems to be working still. Then rely on Selenium Manager to hopefully magically make that work on most users machines.

I'm leaving this issue open for now until I fix the quiet failure mentioned here, and hopefully at that point also have a better answer for going forwards.
