I think I may have the same port 4444 problem with some code I tried to write to learn how to use Selenium. Basically I tried to write a perl program on Ubuntu to automate the entry of cokezone codes on the www.cokezone.co.uk website. From my terminal I got the following results:

icleave@icleave:~/Desktop/CokeZone$ perl cokezone.pl
Error requesting http://localhost:4444/selenium-server/driver/?cmd=get
+NewBrowserSession&1=*chrome&2=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cokezone.co.uk%2F:
500 Can't connect to localhost:4444 (connect: Connection refused)
# Looks like your test exited with 111 before it could output anything
+.

What advice do you have for sorting this out on Ubuntu? Many thanks, Icleave
