[Python] Selenium python Error: element could not be scrolled into view

I am working on automating the IdentiGO application for my company, and I'm getting the following error:

Internal Server Error: /identigo

selenium.common.exceptions.ElementNotInteractableException: Message: Element <span class="ui-button-text"> could not be scrolled into view


Here is my code, with the scripts leading up to this page omitted since they aren't relevant to my problem.

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC


WebDriverWait(driver, 1000000).until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, '/html/body/div[5]/div[3]/div/button/span'))).click()

On the page prior to this code, where the user selects an appointment date and time; I want the script to wait for the "Go" button to be pushed, then click on "Continue" in the following screenshot:
​

If you would like to see the exact page, go to this url, then you will have to make a series of POST requests using the following info:

• click schedule a new appointment
• other
• vendors and contractors (children)
• tnvc00047
• 37204
• make random appointment date

Any advice would really be appreciated!

Here is a JS Fiddle with the html of the page:

https://jsfiddle.net/khf4tym3/

When I click "view page source", the popup html doesn't show in the source code, so I assume that it is generated with JS.

<div class="ui-dialog-buttonset">
<button type="button" class="ui-button ui-widget ui-state-default ui-corner-all ui-button-text-only" role="button" aria-disabled="false">
<span class="ui-button-text">Continue</span>
</button>
</div>


-- If I change the line WebDriverWait(driver, 1000000) to WebDriverWait(driver, 30), I get the following error instead:

code for the project so far, so you can skip the forum entry.

The working solution:

WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(expected_conditions.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//div[starts-with(@aria-describedby, 'ui-id-')]//span[@class='ui-button-text' and text()='Continue']"))).click()
