Does the Chrome browser window open, then it fails or does it not open at all? Is Chrome installed? Is it installed in the default location? Do you have a version of Selenium that works with the installed version of Chrome? – Sam Woods Jul 12 '12 at 22:35

Strange but I just got this error today after having all my tests run and pass for months, I updated the ChromeDriver and that seemed to resolve it locally but not on all my remote machines yet. – MichaelF Aug 2 '12 at 18:37
