`Error: Could not find Chrome (ver. 119.0.6045.105). This can occur if either

1. you did not perform an installation before running the script (e.g. npm install) or
2. your cache path is incorrectly configured (which is: /home/devmarinesl/.cache/puppeteer).
   For (2), check out our guide on configuring puppeteer at https://pptr.dev/guides/configuration.`

tried to fix this issue with few node.js versions(16/18/20) and pupeeter versions to my Laravel project (5.8). but issue is still available. Also tried with downgrading Browsershot version to 3.47.

please help to resolve this. Thanks

I was in the same boat, and it took me an uncomfortable amount of time to figure it out. maybe somebody can save time with this approach. I created the following file within the root dir of the project:

.puppeteerrc.cjs

const { join } = require('path');

/**
 * @type {import("puppeteer").Configuration}
 */
module.exports = {
    cacheDirectory: join(__dirname, '.cache', 'puppeteer'),
};

and added the following script to

package.json

    "scripts": {
        "postinstall": "npx puppeteer browsers install --install-deps"
    },
