I'm trying to write a script that automates logging into Twitter with WWW::Mechanize::Chrome. The script fills out the user name name and password fields but when it tries to click the "Log in" button, an error is thrown and the browser immediately closes out. The error is: 

Didn't see a 'Network.responseReceived' event for frameId CCFEFDAEDAF4
+F4BDFBD57DCF85C5B736, requestId 1000091631.28, cannot synthesize resp
+onse at /Users/me/perl5/perlbrew/perls/perl-5.24.1/lib/site_perl/5.24
+.4/WWW/Mechanize/Chrome.pm line 1852.

Here is the script: 

#!/usr/bin/env perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use WWW::Mechanize::Chrome;

my $mech =  WWW::Mechanize::Chrome->new();

$mech->get('http://twitter.com');
$mech->form_number(1);
$mech->field('session[username_or_email]' => 'user');
$mech->field('session[password]' => 'password');
$mech->click({ selector => "form.LoginForm input.EdgeButton" });

I've tried different methods for submitting the form but with the same results.

$PM = "Perl Monk's";
$MCF = "Most Clueless Friar Abbot Bishop Pontiff Deacon Curate Priest Vicar";
$nysus = $PM . ' ' . $MCF;
