I'm trying to access a page with RSelenium. I wrote my code in R and it is work fine in Chrome and IE. But when I'm using geckodriver, the firefox shows the below message and i recive an error in my R console:

enter image description here

Selenium message:
Build info: version: '3.141.59', revision: 'e82be7d358', time: '2018-11-14T08:25:53'
System info:os.name: 'Windows 7', os.arch: 'x86', os.version: '6.1', java.version: '1.8.0_40'
Driver info: driver.version: unknown

Error:   Summary: UnknownError
     Detail: An unknown server-side error occurred while processing the command.
     class: org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException
     Further Details: run errorDetails method

I found that I should change the firefox profile but it is the python code and I need R: 

FirefoxProfile profile = new FirefoxProfile();
profile.setAcceptUntrustedCertificates(true);

It should be like this in R

fprof <- makeFirefoxProfile(list(browser.download.dir = "D:/temp"))
remDr <- remoteDriver(extraCapabilities = fprof)

but i don't know what should I write exactly.

Would you please help me. Or if you know how I could deactivate this warning!

Selenium requires that you set both the acceptInsecureCerts and acceptUntrustedCerts to TRUE. Besides, remoteDriver has been deprecated, so you now have to use rsDriver, as demonstrated here:

remDr=rsDriver(browser=browserName,extraCapabilities=list(acceptInsecureCerts=TRUE,acceptUntrustedCerts=TRUE))
