Difficulty with GWT Developer Plugin Chrome & Firefox

[Chris Rowland]

I'm doing some work with the most recent version of GWT (have been
working using the old hosted mode for quite a while) and I'm having
issues getting the developer addin installed in Chrome and Firefox.
When pasting the URL provided by the eclipse plugin, IE prompted to
install the addin and it worked ok.

However, when doing the same thing in Chrome and Firefox, it failed.

In Chrome, it simply said the addin was missing. With Firefox it said
it was missing, but couldn't find it.

I wasn't able to find anywhere to download the installer manually,
either.

Any advice?

Hey Chris,

For Chrome there's no plugin now, see http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/issues/detail?id=4325

For Firefox follow the instructions at
http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/issues/detail?id=4141#c16
Exact steps for Fedora:
yum install xulrunner-devel gcc-c++

mkdir gwt-source
cd gwt-source
svn checkout http://google-web-toolkit.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ trunk
svn checkout http://google-web-toolkit.googlecode.com/svn/plugin-sdks/
plugin-sdks
cd trunk/plugins/xpcom export BROWSER=ff36
export DEFAULT_FIREFOX_LIBS=/usr/lib/xulrunner-sdk-1.9.2/sdk/lib
make clean
make firefox prebuilt/gwt-dev-plugin.xpi

You can also use wine if you really want Chrome.

This was actually all on Windows XP. Does that make it a stranger
question?

Googlers?

I have this same issue for some days.
It was working correctly before, I don't know what happened.
Did you resolve the problem somehow?
I'm interested in it, please write me if you could.
Thank you.

I tried the link:

http://gwt.google.com/samples/MissingPlugin

For IE and it's not working for me.

The error message is:

"The installer encountered error 1603: fatal error during
installation"

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Lisa
