JR64777: IBM RPA - IT'S NOT POSSIBLE TO SET PROXY ON CHROME/FIREFOX BROWSERS

21.0.2-IBMRPA-IF00

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• It's not possible to set proxy address on Chrome/Firefox
  browsers. The proxy seems to be created correctly, although,
  both browsers bypass the proxy address set even creating the
  proxy before opening the browsers.
  
  Here's the exception thrown:
  System.Exception: Fail to start Chrome navigator --->
  OpenQA.Selenium.WebDriverException: invalid argument: entry 0 of
  'firstMatch' is invalid
  from invalid argument: cannot parse capability: proxy
  from invalid argument: Specifying 'socksProxy' requires an
  integer for 'socksVersion'
