It seems you didn't installed geckodriver properly. See this comment on stackoverflow.

1. Are you using Docker ?
2. What command did you run ?
3. What is your OS ?
4. Do you have the latest version of Firefox installed ?
5. What is the output of geckodriver --version ?

I have the same Problem and

1. I don't use Docker
2. I ran the command python3 phoneinfoga.py -n %Number%
3. Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
4. Yes I updated Firefox
   5 and it says geckodriver: command not found

hey sundown, I'm relatively new to all this and I read the previous thread. I'm having the same issue, can you dumb it down for me? I'm using kali linux and I ran the command: "python3 phoneinfoga.py -n "(+X) XXXXXXXXXX". After I had responded with 'n' when it asked me about custom format it outputted:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/lib/python3.7/dist-packages/selenium/webdriver/common/service.py", line 76, in start

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

how do I properly install the geckodriver? when I typed "pip install geckodriver" it outputted

Collecting geckodriver
Could not install packages due to an EnvironmentError: 404 Client Error: Not Found for url: https://pypi.org/simple/geckodriver/

I would appreciate some help
