Cannot create default querySelector.

Error

Cannot create default \`querySelector\`.

What it means

Puppeteer raised this from its Puppeteer runtime code. In practice, it usually means your script reached a browser, page, frame, element, or option state that the API cannot use safely.

How to fix it

• Confirm the selector matches an element in the same frame where you are querying.
• Wait for the element to be attached and visible before acting on it.
• Re-query the element after DOM updates instead of reusing an old ElementHandle.

Minimal guard

try {
  // Run the Puppeteer operation that triggers this error.
} catch (error) {
  if (error instanceof Error && error.message.includes("Cannot create default `querySelector`.")) {
    // Apply the fix above, then retry or fail with a clearer message.
  }
  throw error;
