Solution 1:

I had the same problem using webdriver.Firefox() with driver.implicitly_wait(IMPLICIT_WAIT) and solved it by installing a new version of geckodriver Version 0.19.0 (I had a version from June 2017 before).

Download geckodriver from here: https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases.

My configuration:

• Firefox 56.0
• Selenium Version: 3.4.3

Check the version of geckodriver in shell:

$ geckodriver -V
geckodriver 0.19.0

By default selenium will use the firefox version that's in your path. To change to another version use:

from selenium.webdriver.firefox.firefox_binary import FirefoxBinary

binary = FirefoxBinary(firefox_path='your firefox path', log_file='your logfile path')
driver = webdriver.Firefox(firefox_binary=binary)
