Currently my crontab is set to

40 12 * * * /usr/bin/python3 /somepath/script.py 

This 'script.py' is a script that uses selenium and runs some web automation. It will open up chrome driver during its execution. When I try to schedule this script with crontab, it does not work, the chromedriver does not open up.

If I just execute the following in a terminal

/usr/bin/python3 /somepath/script.py

the script can execute no problem.

I tried testing crontab with

40 12 * * * /usr/bin/python3 /somepath/test.py >> /somepath/output.txt

and this works as expected as well. In my test.py, I just print 'hi'. Could it be because my script is too complicated so crontab cant run it?
