Selenium Selenoid File Server not running in Browser Container - docker

Question

selenium is unable to download any files from the browsers due to a 502 error on my coworkers machine, none of my other coworkers are seeing the issue, just this one dude. We are using Firefox.
After looking at the Selenoid code a bit I learned that the containers the Browser runs in uses a File Server on port 8080 to allow downloading files from the container, but I discovered that this File Server is not running within these containers.
I verified this through this command:
docker exec -it <browser_container> curl 127.0.0.1:8080
On my machine I get a 200 response:
<pre>
test.xlsx
</pre>
But when I run this command on his machine I get this error:
Failed to connect to 127.0.0.1 port 8080 after 8 ms: Connection refused
This is indicative that the File Server is not running within his Browser Containers. I've been trying many different firefox arguments and I've restart selenoid and the docker containers and still can't figure out what's going on, I'm completely lost right now. If anyone knows what might be going on I would be appreciative, or even if anyone has any idea how to gain more information into what's going on.
Here is the Firefox options we are using
options = webdriver.FirefoxOptions()
options.add_argument('--width=1600')
options.add_argument('--height=900')
options.set_preference('browser.download.dir', '/home/selenium/Downloads')
And our browsers.json file
{
"chrome": {
"default": "105.0",
"versions": {
"105.0": {
"image": "selenoid/vnc_chrome:105.0",
"port": "4444",
"path": "/",
"env": ["TZ=America/Denver"]
}
},
"caps": {
"loggingPrefs": {"browser": "ALL"},
"enableVNC": true,
"browserName": "chrome",
"timeZone": "America/Denver",
"sessionTimeout": "1m30s"
}
},
"firefox": {
"default": "latest",
"versions": {
"latest": {
"image": "selenoid/firefox",
"port": "4444",
"path": "/wd/hub",
"env": ["TZ=America/Denver"]
}
},
"caps": {
"loggingPrefs": {"browser": "ALL"},
"enableVNC": true,
"browserName": "firefox",
"timeZone": "America/Denver",
"sessionTimeout": "1m30s"
}
}
}
We do have a custom docker-compose.yml file for starting the selenoid and selenoid_ui containers, here is the file just in case that setup matters, I doubt the issue lies here.
