[selenium-users] Why is chrome browser not launching from Linux Root User?

I was also facing same issue before.
Do one thing:
1- Delete that chrome driver reinstall the compatible chrome driver.
2- check the ownership of your project and also your chrome driver. Both
ownership should be "root" as you want to execute
3- set one display port where you need to initialize the browser.

Then check, hope your issue will resolve.

Thanks,
