This version of ChromeDriver only supports Chrome version

When running a python application, I get the error message

selenium.common.exceptions.SessionNotCreatedException: Message: session not created: This version of ChromeDriver only supports Chrome version 98
Current browser version is 103.0.5060.53 with binary path /usr/bin/google-chrome

To fix the error, download the chrome driver for your google chrome browser version from

https://chromedriver.chromium.org/downloads

Extract the file. You will get a file with the name “chromedriver”. Replace your chromedriver file with this one.

sudo mv ~/Downloads/chromedriver_linux64/chromedriver /usr/local/bin/chromedriver
