“value” is out of range error while calling ElementFinder.sendKeys()

[scottfwalter]

Using Node 10.16.0 and Protractor 5.4.2 this code

var fileToUpload = '../tests/protractor/import-files/' + fileName;
var absolutePath = path.resolve(__dirname, fileToUpload);
//absolutePath = '/Users/scottwalter/cxone/webapp-wfm-scheduling/tests/protractor/import-files/import_staffingPlan_good.csv';
element(by.css('input[type="file"]')).sendKeys(absolutePath).

Throws the error

RangeError [ERR_OUT_OF_RANGE]: The value of "value" is out of range. It must be >= -2147483648 and <= 2147483647. Received 2688297010

I am experiencing the same issue with Node 10.15.3 and Protractor 5.12. Protractor 5.1.2 depends on selenium-webdriver - 3.0.1 which in turn depends on adm-zip 0.4.4
Now adm-zip has fixed this issue in 0.4.11 under
cthackers/adm-zip#218

Protractor 5.4.2 depends on selenium-webdriver 3.6.0 which now uses jszip instead of adm-zip.
I am not quite sure why the calls above are going to adm-zip instead of jszip

My bad. We had both Protractor 5.4.2 and selenium-webdriver 2.47.0 listed as dependencies. When I updated to selenium-webdriver to 3.6.0 npm downloaded the correct version of adm-zip
