Cannot run the lighthouse_ci container (nonheadless) locally

[vshar1]

I am just trying to run the lighthouse locally for a sample any website and see report generated on my Ubuntu machine.

I followed ReadMe! for building the image for full-chrome

And then execute
docker run -it --rm --cap-add=SYS_ADMIN lighthouse_ci https://example.com

But getting the error as

  [ ok ] Starting system message bus: dbus.
sh: 0: Can't open /chromeuser-script_nonheadless.sh

Not sure if it is a real issue but any help will be appreciable.

same happens to me.
I builded docker with docker_build.sh and run below command

[root]# docker run -it --rm --cap-add=SYS_ADMIN lighthouse_ci  https://example.com

If you want to live dangerously and need an immediate workaround, you can try using --no-sandbox.

thx for reading.

Just did a fresh checkout and not seeing this myself when using Dockerfile.nonheadless. I'm using Docker 18.0.6 on Mac.

sh: 0: Can't open /chromeuser-script_nonheadless.sh

Looks suspicious. Do you have that file in your checkout, inside builder/?

[ebidel]

@asayamakk try launching headful chrome with --disable-sandbox in https://github.com/ebidel/lighthouse-ci/blob/master/builder/chromeuser-script_nonheadless.sh or add it to --chrome-flags in https://github.com/ebidel/lighthouse-ci/blob/master/builder/entrypoint.sh#L6.

I'm using --no-sandbox at https://github.com/ebidel/lighthouse-ci/blob/master/builder/chromeuser-script_nonheadless.sh in combination with this change to make the service successfully find the chrome instance:
