Python Chartify Library: chromedriver permission issues
I am trying to use the Python library Chartify (Py3) though when I try to show my graph as 'png' I get an error.
# Generate example data
data = chartify.examples.example_data()
# Plot the data
ch = chartify.Chart(blank_labels=True, x_axis_type='datetime')
ch.plot.scatter(data_frame=data,x_column='date',y_column='unit_price')
ch.set_title("Scatterplot")
ch.set_subtitle("Plot two numeric values.")
ch.show('png')
The error is the following:
WebDriverException: Message: 'chromedriver' executable may have wrong
permissions. Please see
https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/chromedriver/home
I already downloaded chromedriver and placed it in my path. I verified that is in my path using os.path.exists. My Chrome browser is up to date (Mac). When I run the following code, I get the same error as above.
from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Chrome(my_path + '/chromedriver')
What am I missing? I appreciate your help!

Looks like you have 'my_path' as a string rather than the variable my_path
I recommend passing the path as an argument of executable_path
Here's the correct code.
from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=(my_path + '/chromedriver)')

Sorry that was a typo on my end. It is the actual path that I'm referencing from another file that has os.getcwd()
