selenium.WebDriverException: unknown error: session deleted because of page crash from tab crashed

Ask Question

Note: My question was closed earlier, I tried solutions mentioned here - unknown error: session deleted because of page crash from unknown error: cannot determine loading status from tab crashed with ChromeDriver Selenium -- added these options - options.addArguments("--disable-dev-shm-usage"); options.addArguments("--no-sandbox"); -- Still I see the issue

Seeing below errors for single test in some scenarios in between when running in selenium grid:

We have 3 sequential methods in hooks - looks like first issue is the root cause, but am not sure. 
Following are the options used for driver:
            ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
            options.addArguments("start-maximized");
            options.addArguments("--disable-infobars");
            options.addArguments("--disable-extensions");
            options.addArguments("chrome.switches", "--disable-extensions");
            options.addArguments("--disable-gpu");
            options.addArguments("--disable-dev-shm-usage");
            options.addArguments("--no-sandbox");
            options.addArguments("--disable-notifications");
            options.addArguments("--disable-popup-blocking");
            options.addArguments("enable-automation");
            options.addArguments("--disable-dev-shm-usage");
            options.addArguments("--disable-browser-side-navigation");
            options.addArguments("--dns-prefetch-disable");
            options.setPageLoadStrategy(PageLoadStrategy.NONE);
            options.setExperimentalOption("useAutomationExtension", false);
            driver = new RemoteWebDriver(new URL(AWS_URL), options);
Following are the overrides we used in kubernetest yaml file:
  chrome:
    ## Enable the creation of a node-chrome pod
    enabled: true
    replicas: 65
    javaOpts: "-Xmx1024m -XX:+UseSerialGC"

 Please help
I had the same issue and it was resolved by adding the -/dev/shm:/dev/shm for the chrome container in the docker-compose.yml file 

Refer: https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/docker-selenium
chrome:
 image: selenium/node-chrome
 depends_on:
  - selenium-hub
 volumes:
  - /dev/shm:/dev/shm
 environment:
  HUB_PORT_4444_TCP_ADDR: selenium-hub
  HUB_PORT_4444_TCP_PORT: 4444
  NODE_MAX_SESSION: 2
  NODE_MAX_INSTANCES: 2
I had the same issue for Chrome and Firefox. I was able to resolve it by increasing the size (shm_size) of both containers.
version: "3"
services:
    image: selenium/hub
    ports:
      - "4444:4444"
  chrome:
    image: selenium/node-chrome
    shm_size: '1gb'
    depends_on:
      - hub
    environment:
      - HUB_HOST=hub
  firefox:
    image: selenium/node-firefox
    shm_size: '1gb'
    depends_on:
      - hub
    environment:
      - HUB_HOST=hub
