Hello all,

options = Options()
options.add_argument('--headless')
options.add_argument('--disable-gpu')
dr = webdriver.Chrome(ChromeDriverManager().install(), options=options)
dr.get("url")

cWait = WebDriverWait(dr, 5)
usernameField = cWait.until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.ID, "txtUserID")))

while running the above set of lines of code, when i click on pycharm run for this python file, it works in headless in good way but when I use terminal and write code something like

python main.py

the console gives this output

It is working absolutely fine with pycharm run button, but not with terminal please help as because of this reason I am not able to make this as schedular event.

When you run it from within pycharm, it is using a specific python, which may be different from your system's default python. Check the run configuration in pycharm and see what the path is to the python version it is using, and try to execute it using the full path to that python, i.e. instead of python main.py it would be something like /path/to/your/project/venv/bin/python /path/to/your/project/main.py

If that's not it, try giving us a more complete explanation of your situation, so that someone can try to reproduce what's happening and investigate further.
