Double initialization of `DevToolsServer` leads to error in `web-scraper`

Open barjin opened this issue 3 weeks ago • 0 comments

The preLaunchHook in Web Scraper initializes DevToolsServer:

https://github.com/apify/apify-sdk-js/blob/48e4c51241b45ca1e526e0ad45edef2127616650/packages/actor-scraper/web-scraper/src/internals/crawler_setup.ts#L318-L326

In case the page / browser crash (see highlighted section in the screenshot below), the dev tools server doesn't exit correctly and all subsequent initialization attempts will fail with port error.
