Issues while running npm run protractor - Timed out waiting for the WebDriver server

[SaeedMotevalli]

Sometimes, when i run protracor with following config, i face with {Timed out waiting for the WebDriver server} error. But sometimes it's ok. selenium standalone and chromedriver is up to date.

Error
