chrome headless browser not opening URL - selenium-webdriver

I am running my script on chrome headless browser and it is not launching the url.
chrome Version : 70.0 , chromedriver: 2.44
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","C:\\path\\to\\chromedriver.exe");`
ChromeOptions chromeOptions = new ChromeOptions();
chromeOptions.addArguments("--headless");
chromeOptions.addArguments("window-size=1400,600");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(chromeOptions);
driver.get(url);
above code works on any other url's but one which i want to launch is not openning. This code is able to launch the url in phantomjs and also chrome without headless.
When trying to get source of the page in headless browser i am getting.
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><head></head><body></body></html>
Any help appriciated.

No matter what code I give, only chrome opens with only google.com

I am facing issues with launching websites from firefox and chrome. I have referred online blogs and chatrooms on the same but could not find any helpful support, hence I would require someone to assist me on this.
I have run the following code multiple times using different URLs, but all the time, chrome opens with google.com. At the same time, I have used the firefox driver as well but inspite of that chrome opens with google.com.
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\\ADITYA\\SELENIUM TEST LAB\\chromedriver.exe");
WebDriver driver=new ChromeDriver();
driver.get ("google.com");
System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", "C:\\ADITYA\\SELENIUM TEST LAB\\geckodriver.exe");
WebDriver driver=new FirefoxDriver();
driver.get ("google.com");
Please help/suggest on what change needs to be done.

How to close firefox browser in selenium 3.0.1

Firefox : 50.0.1, GeckoDriver :13, selenium 3.01, IDE: Eclipse, Programming language : Java
Using below code :
System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver","C:\\geckodriver.exe);
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
driver.get("https://www.youtube.com/");
driver.close(); Or driver.quit()
In driver.close() the browser is not closed
In driver.quite() the browser is closed and Firefox crashed.
Getting Error: "plugin container for FireFox has stopped working."
Please let me know any solution

Steps you can try:
Uninstall any plugins in the Firefox browser.
Use the 64-bit version of geckodriver for 64-bit Firefox, similarly, 32-bit geckodriver for 32-bit Firefox.
I have tried the code in the same environment, and driver.quit worked for me. driver.close still not closing the browser.

You should always use driver.quit() when you want to close browser and not just one tab.
This exception you get is unfortunately known issue when quitting geckodriver firefox instance, see this links for details.

You can create a new firefox profile steps can be found here!
In your code use this new profile created.
WebDriver webdriver;
ProfilesIni profile = new ProfilesIni();
FirefoxProfile myprofile = profile.getProfile("myProfileName");
webdriver = new FirefoxDriver(myprofile);
Now webdriver.quit(); will close the firefox browser after the test has run.

This seems to be a problem with the geckodriver.
The workaround which worked for me was to install the older version of geckodriver, 0.20.1, which you can download here: https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases/tag/v0.20.1

Open Menu->Options->Advanced.

I am trying to run my selenium web driver script but it redirecting to first run page of firefox .
enter image description here
I am using firefox version 44.0.2.
How to disable it and run my script.
I have referred link Firefox webdriver opens first run page all the time but didn't get the solution and also i have updated selenium web driver to version 2.52 but didn't work at all
Please help with your answer
Thanks

I think that's happening because the new issue occurs with latest update of Mozilla firefox.
It's happening with me too.
To overcome from this issue you need to setPreference as xpinstall.signatures.required", false to firefox Profile and then pass it to driver object
firefoxProfile.setPreference("xpinstall.signatures.required", false);
Below code is working fine for me.
static WebDriver driver=null;
public static void main(String[] args) {
final FirefoxProfile firefoxProfile = new FirefoxProfile();
firefoxProfile.setPreference("xpinstall.signatures.required", false);
driver = new FirefoxDriver(firefoxProfile);
driver.get("https://www.google.de/");
Hope it will help you :)
