Selenium WebDriver.get(url) does not open the URL

by

It is a defect of Selenium.
I have the same problem in Ubuntu 12.04 behind the proxy.

Problem is in incorrect processing proxy exclusions. Default Ubuntu exclusions are located in no_proxy environment variable:

no_proxy=localhost,127.0.0.0/8

But it seems that /8 mask doesn’t work for selenium. To workaround the problem it is enough to change no_proxy to the following:

no_proxy=localhost,127.0.0.1

Removing proxy settings before running python script also helps:

http_proxy= python script.py
