I'm getting this error on Ubuntu and MacOS. Tried installing chromium. Can I redirect puppeteer to this installation? Any suggestions?

Same issue for me... When I run Puppeteer by itself, I don't have any problem, but when I run the scraper, I get the same error on launch. Have you found a solution, @nort4n ?
