Selecting value from dropdown-box is not possible with selenium?

I try to select the value "Ukrainian Division" in the dropdown box of the following site:
https://www.cyberarena.live/schedule-efootball
with the following code:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import Select
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager
import time
if __name__ == '__main__':
WAIT = 3
options = Options()
options.add_experimental_option ('excludeSwitches', ['enable-logging'])
options.add_argument("start-maximized")
options.add_argument('window-size=1920x1080')
options.add_argument('--no-sandbox')
options.add_argument('--disable-gpu')
srv=Service(ChromeDriverManager().install())
driver = webdriver.Chrome (service=srv, options=options)
link = f"https://www.cyberarena.live/schedule-efootball"
driver.get (link)
time.sleep(WAIT)
select = Select(driver.find_elements(By.XPATH,"//select")[1])
select.select_by_visible_text('Ukrainian Division')
# select.select_by_value("1")
input("Press!")
driver.quit()
But unfortunately, nothing happens - the options are not selected with this code.
I also tried it with select_by_value with this line
select.select_by_value("1")
instead of
select.select_by_visible_text('Ukrainian Division')
but this doesn´t work either.
How can I select this option from the dropdown box?

I tried ypur code and I also could not use Selenium Select object there. I don't know why. But we still can do that directly, with regular Selenium commands.
The following code is working:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
options = Options()
options.add_argument("start-maximized")
webdriver_service = Service('C:\webdrivers\chromedriver.exe')
driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=webdriver_service, options=options)
url = 'https://www.cyberarena.live/schedule-efootball'
driver.get(url)
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 20)
wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//select[contains(.,'Division')]"))).click()
wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//div[contains(text(),'Ukrainian')]"))).click()
The result is:

WebScrapping with Selenium and BeaufitulSoup can't find anything

I am trying to extract all the description in the links in the class="publication u-padding-xs-ver js-publication" of this website: https://www.sciencedirect.com/browse/journals-and-books?accessType=openAccess&accessType=containsOpenAccess
I tried both with BeautifulSoup and Selenium but I can't extract anything. You can see in the image below the result I got
result
Here is the code I am using
options = Options()
options.add_argument("headless")
driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=Service(ChromeDriverManager().install()), options=options)
ul = driver.find_element(By.ID, "publication-list")
print("Links")
allLi = ul.find_elements(By.TAG_NAME, "li")
for li in allLi:
print("Links " + str(count) + " " + li.text)

You are missing waits.
You have to wait for elements to become visible before accessing them.
The best approach to do that is with use of WebDriverWait expected_conditions explicit waits.
The following code works
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
options = Options()
options.add_argument("start-maximized")
webdriver_service = Service('C:\webdrivers\chromedriver.exe')
driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=options, service=webdriver_service)
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 20)
url = "https://www.sciencedirect.com/browse/journals-and-books?accessType=openAccess&accessType=containsOpenAccess"
driver.get(url)
ul = wait.until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.ID, "publication-list")))
allLi = wait.until(EC.presence_of_all_elements_located((By.TAG_NAME, "li")))
print(len(allLi))
the output is:
167

selenium difference between --headerless and -silent mode

When I try selenium option argument in my PC, with either of modes (--headerless) or (--silent) it works fine. But on clients device it interrupts with strange code. I even added windows size after arguments, but error is same.Error with Feature-Policy header
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
chrome_options = Options()
chrome_options.add_argument("--no-sandbox")
chrome_options.add_argument('disable-notifications')
chrome_options.add_argument('--headerless')
webdriver_service = Service("chromedriver.exe")
driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=webdriver_service, options=chrome_options)
driver.get(url)
WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.ID, "onetrust-accept-btn-handler"))).click()

The website with selenium headless browser mode detected as bot.
To avoid detection largely depends on maximize_window_size()
In your case,It's also need to add --disable-blink-features=AutomationControlled
The following example is working fine in Headless Chrome Selenium:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
options = Options()
options.headless = True
options.add_argument("start-maximized")
#options.add_experimental_option("detach", True)
options.add_argument("--no-sandbox")
options.add_experimental_option("excludeSwitches", ["enable-automation"])
options.add_experimental_option('excludeSwitches', ['enable-logging'])
options.add_experimental_option('useAutomationExtension', False)
options.add_argument('--disable-blink-features=AutomationControlled')
webdriver_service = Service("./chromedriver") #Your chromedriver path
driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=webdriver_service,options=options)
url = 'https://soundcloud.com/daydoseofhouse/snt-whats-wrong/s-jmbaiBDyQ0d?si=233b2f843a2c4a7c8afd6b9161369717&utm%5C_source=clipboard&utm%5C_medium=text&utm%5C_campaign=social%5C_sharing'
driver.get(url)
cookie = WebDriverWait(driver, 15).until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.XPATH, '//*[#id="onetrust-accept-btn-handler"]'))).click()
video_duration = WebDriverWait(driver, 15).until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.XPATH, '//div[#class="playbackTimeline__duration sc-text-primary sc-text-h5"]/span[2]'))).text
print(video_duration)
Output:

Selenium sometimes clicking button, sometimes not without raising any errors [duplicate]

I need some help.
There is URL: https://www.inipec.gov.it/cerca-pec/-/pecs/companies.
I need to click checkbox Captcha:
My code is look like:
import os, urllib.request, requests, datetime, time, random, ssl, json, codecs, csv, urllib
from urllib.request import Request, urlopen

from datetime import datetime
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.common.exceptions import NoSuchElementException
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait

During the execution, there is an error:
driver.find_elements_by_xpath('//*[#id="recaptcha-anchor"]/div1').click()
AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'click'
Please, help to fix it.

Solution update (11-Feb-2020)
Using the following set of binaries:
Selenium v3.141.0
ChromeDriver v80.0
Chrome Version 80.0
You can use the following updated block of code as a solution:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument("start-maximized")
options.add_experimental_option("excludeSwitches", ["enable-automation"])
options.add_experimental_option('useAutomationExtension', False)
driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=options, executable_path=r'C:\WebDrivers\chromedriver.exe')
driver.get("https://www.inipec.gov.it/cerca-pec/-/pecs/companies")
WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(EC.frame_to_be_available_and_switch_to_it((By.CSS_SELECTOR,"iframe[name^='a-'][src^='https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api2/anchor?']")))
WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//span[#id='recaptcha-anchor']"))).click()
Original solution
Within the URL https://www.inipec.gov.it/cerca-pec/-/pecs/companies to invoke click() on the reCAPTCHA checkbox you need to:
Induce WebDriverWait for the desired frame to be available and switch to it.
Induce WebDriverWait for the desired element to be clickable.
You can use the following solution:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument("start-maximized")
options.add_argument('disable-infobars')
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=r'C:\WebDrivers\chromedriver.exe', chrome_options=options)
driver.get("https://www.inipec.gov.it/cerca-pec/-/pecs/companies")
WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(EC.frame_to_be_available_and_switch_to_it((By.CSS_SELECTOR,"iframe[name^='a-'][src^='https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api2/anchor?']")))
WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//span[#class='recaptcha-checkbox goog-inline-block recaptcha-checkbox-unchecked rc-anchor-checkbox']/div[#class='recaptcha-checkbox-checkmark']"))).click()

I resolved this, you can try this with your landing website url.
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.support.select import Select
from selenium.common.exceptions import SessionNotCreatedException
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
prefs = {"download.default_directory": download_dir}
options.add_experimental_option("prefs", prefs)
options.add_argument("--no-sandbox")
driver = webdriver.Chrome("/usr/bin/chromedriver", chrome_options = options)
driver.get("https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api2/demo")
driver.maximize_window()
price = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//div[#class='g-recaptcha']")
price_content = price.get_attribute('innerHTML')
start = str(price_content).find(";k=")+len(";k=")
end = str(price_content).find("&co")
driver.implicitly_wait(20)
driver.execute_script("document.getElementById('g-recaptcha-response').style.display = '';")
recaptcha_text_area = driver.find_element_by_id("g-recaptcha-response")
recaptcha_text_area.clear()
recaptcha_text_area.send_keys(price_content[start:end])
#.....................................................................................
button = driver.find_element_by_id("recaptcha-demo-submit")

Headless Chrome not loading page

Headless Chrome does not load the page and gets stuck at:
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 30)
wait.until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.CSS_SELECTOR, ".price-link:nth-child(1) .team-name")))
Why is it doing this? Is this a bug as it works perfectly in normal chrome and prints h below except in headless...
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
options = Options()
options.add_argument("--headless")
options.add_argument("window-size=1400,600")
driver = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_options=options)
#driver = webdriver.Chrome()
driver.set_window_size(1024, 600)
driver.maximize_window()
driver.get('https://www.sportsbet.com.au/betting/soccer?LeftNav')
print('?')
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 30)
wait.until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.CSS_SELECTOR, ".price-link:nth-child(1) .team-name")))
print('h')
Another example:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
options = Options()
options.add_argument("--headless")
options.add_argument("window-size=1400,600")
driver = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_options=options)
#driver = webdriver.Chrome()
driver.set_window_size(1024, 600)
driver.maximize_window()
import time
driver.get('https://www.sportsbet.com.au/betting/soccer?LeftNav')
import time
time.sleep(10)
langs = driver.find_elements_by_css_selector(".price-link:nth-child(1) .team-name")
langs_text = []
for lang in langs:
print(lang.text)
langs_text.append(lang.text)
print('h')
Job prints with removed wait until though nothing is scraped. Page not loading is likely issue.

Try to use the following code:
element = WebDriverWait(driver, 30).until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.CSS_SELECTOR, ".price-link:nth-child(1) .team-name")))
driver.execute_script("arguments[0].scrollIntoView(true);", element)
Hope it helps you!
