Run Webbot from Pythonanywhere

Hi,

I can't run the "webbot" library as I get the following exception:

selenium.common.exceptions.WebDriverException: Message: unknown error: DevToolsActivePort file doesn't exist                                                                                                     
  (Driver info: chromedriver=2.39.562737 (dba483cee6a5f15e2e2d73df16968ab10b38a2bf),platform=Linux 4.4.0-1100-aws x86_64)

I understand that my account needs to be upgraded to the new virtualization to run Chrome. Could you please help me with this?

Thank you!

All accounts have selenium enable by default now, could you try the gist from this help page and see if it works for you?
