May be an issue with the chrome and chrome driver version mismatch.

Have you marked the below checkbox in configuration under RPA console settings.

Yes I did, it autoinstall the chrome driver on /home/carlos/robotappian/./Jidoka-workspace/6437cc3ad526f6341fa8664b/./ChromeWebDriver/chromedriver

But when i run the robotic task it crashes. 

Whole error:
