puppeteer When use headless false - google-chrome-devtools

Question

I have a script the parse a specific webpage.
When I set headless false, the puppeteer doesn't load page
await page.goto('https://www.google.com', {
waitUntil: 'load',
// Remove the timeout
timeout: 0
});
I tried with a lot of configurations, like:
const args = [
'--no-sandbox',
'--enable-logging',
' --v=1',
'--disable-gpu',
'--disable-extension',
'--disable-setuid-sandbox',
'--disable-infobars',
'--window-position=0,0',
'--ignore-certifcate-errors',
'--ignore-certifcate-errors-spki-list',
'--user-agent="Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_12_6) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/65.0.3312.0 Safari/537.36"'
];
const options = {
args,
headless: false, // default is true
userDataDir: "./user_data",
defaultViewport: null,
devtools: true,
ignoreHTTPSErrors: true,
};
But the script stops to await page.goto until timeout.

As I understand you're parsing not the google.com page.
The first thing that should be considered it's the waitUntil: 'load'. What it done, it considers navigation to be finished when the load event is fired.
The load event is fired when the whole webpage (HTML) has loaded fully, including all dependent resources such as JavaScript files, CSS files, and images.
There is a big chance that this event is not firing in your case for a reasonable timeout, so I would suggest not to rely on this waitUntil but use another wait like the presence of some selector, for example
await page.goto('https://www.google.com');
await page.waitForSelector('[name="q"]');
