Discussed in https://github.com/FlareSolverr/FlareSolverr/discussions/218

^{Originally posted by jprokos November 10, 2021} FlareSolverr 2.0.2 was working and now it’s not. I haven’t changed anything on my system. I have SIP off, no firewall, and no security software running.

@ngosang Have you considered playwright vs puppeteer? Seems to be well maintained and have fewer conflicts.

@alexreg I can reproduce the issue with NodeJS 17 but it’s related to Puppeter/Firefox not FlareSolverr. For now I will support only NodejS 16 LTS. You can install that version or use the Docker container.

Update: #364

I wish this were true… It is working randomly and I haven’t been able to pin down why this is happening. Once it’s able to get a port it works. It was running for three days straight. For some reason it’s not always able to get a port. I have checked to see if there are port conflicts and I see none. So it must be in the way it is requesting them that it’s hit and miss.

Hello No other solution other than installing docker? I would like to do without that 😃
