Chromium is set as a dependency for flaresolverr, roling back chromium to 126 resolved the issue. thanks!

@Sisco88 Try with Chrome instead of Chromium. This means you might have to uninstall Chromium. If everything fails, flaresolverr-bin works well.

EDIT: Chromium 126 is the last version that works with flaresolverr.

After update to the latest version, flaresolverr no longer starts and is stuck on "Launching web browser":

flaresolverr does not currently work with latest versions of python-selenium. The latest version of python-selenium that flaresolverr works with is 4.12.0.

Here's what you wanted, but let's take this to the issue ticket I created on Github.

It can't find your browser's binary.

Please post the output of: ls -lh /usr/bin/*chrom*

I do have chromium installed. I expressly installed it and actually have it setup with Group Speed Dial, Emby, Tribel, and Reddit as the default start pages. I have my Chromium shortcut name as Emby as well.

@Locutus64 You don't seem to have chromium installed. Could you try installing chromium and restarting the service?

I'm trying to set up flaresolverr with Prowlarr and it just is not working. Flaresolver is active and running.
