Please add the error details to your question; it really is not difficult.

I'm connected via TeamViewer in the raspberry pi because I'm far away and can't just copy paste all these lines of error.You can simple click the link I provide

It's extremely difficult to read but it has something to do with an exec call as far as I can see. You need to check the parameters that are being passed in the carCLicker.py module around line 252.

The funny thing is that I can run the same code in my laptop and a virual machine I have (ubuntu server 20) ,but can't run it in raspberry pi 3 (ubuntu server 20)
Here I write the last line of errors:
"OSError: [Errno 8] Exec format error: 'geckodriver'"

I don't know what's going on? I included all the libraries in raspberry pi and still doesn't work.

The only way to find out is by using the debugger, it is impossible to guess.

Have you seen this: OSError: [Errno 8] Exec format error: 'geckodriver' when trying to open firefox using selenium in python - Stack Overflow[^]?

Yes, I saw it yesterday, but didn't help me.I think I have the right version of geckodriver.One thing that I observed is that when I type "geckodriver --version" in terminal ,it doesn't show me the version,but it tells me that I have no permission of something (I don't remember now) ,despite the fact I m super user (used sudo su command).
But in my laptop when I type geckodriver --version, it shows me the version I use.
I have installed the same geckodriver in both computers(laptop & raspberry pi 3)

If you don't see the version of geckodriver on Raspberry 3, then the installation has failed.
Check this out: software installation - How to install geckodriver in Ubuntu? - Ask Ubuntu[^]

I had a lot of files with a file (geckodriver_some_version.tar.gz)in github and I did clone it with all the other files in a directory ,then I write the command: tar -xvf geckodriver_some_version.tar.gz , then
mv geckodriver_some_version.tar.gz /usr/local/bin and finally
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin/geckodriver and when I enter that path I see there the geckodriver,so I think I'm right.So, what is going on?

Now, try to run your program.

Nick_is_asking 27-Feb-22 15:44pm

This is why I m here.I run the program & I get some errors.I provided a link above.

Nick_is_asking 27-Feb-22 7:48am

I use ubuntu server 20 (it has not a gui),so I use nano editor,I dont know if there is a debugger in nano.
