Where selenium-side-runner try create this directory ? in /tmp ? in this location it can do this

Answer 1

/application/src/www.opendi.co.uk.side

this is the path that doesn't exist inside docker. It is trying to create the www.opendi.co.uk.side directory

Remove that and try:

selenium-side-runner --output-directory /tmp --server http://chrome-hub.local:4444/wd/hub
