Solution 1:

It seems you're trying selenium 3 with latest firefox version. To support latest firefox with selenium 3, need to download latest geckodriver executable from this link and extract it into you system at any location.

Now to run selenium-server-standalone-3.0.0-beta3.jar use below command :-

java -jar selenium-server-standalone-3.0.0-beta3.jar -Dwebdriver.gecko.driver = "path/to/downloaded geckodriver"

Now you need to set capability with marionette property to true to support latest firefox with selenium 3 as below :-

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.desired_capabilities import DesiredCapabilities

caps = DesiredCapabilities.FIREFOX

# Tell the Python bindings to use Marionette.
caps["marionette"] = True

driver = webdriver.Remote(command_executor = 'http://127.0.0.1:4444/wd/hub', desired_capabilities = caps)

Note :- For more information about marionette follow this Mozilla official page
