E/launcher - Process exited with error code 199
Versions of the executables used:
webdriver manager - 12.0.6
protractor - 5.1.2
chrome driver - 2.32
Java - 1.8
What I have tried:
1.Updating the webdriver to latest version
npm update -g protractor
webdriver-manager update
2.Editing Protractor's config file: node_modules/protractor/config.json
Changing the chrome driver version to whatever you need. eg. "chromedriver": "2.24".Run webdriver-manager update.
But for some reason webdriver-manager always uses chrome driver 2.32.
Any help or suggestion is appreciated. Thanks.
