How to fix “[SEVERE]: bind() failed: Cannot assign requested address (99)” while starting chromedriver

by

In my case running chromedriver with --verbose flag helped to figure out the issue:

[1564749154.010][SEVERE]: bind() failed: Cannot assign requested address (99)
[1564749154.011][INFO]: listen on IPv6 failed with error ERR_ADDRESS_INVALID

Chrome attempted to listen on IPv6 address, which was not enabled in Docker. You can either enable IPv6 support (which works only on Linux host) or ignore the error since chromedriver process will be listening on IPv4 anyway.
