Hi,

Installed the two scripts mentioned, did not observe any errors in the
console. Could you please let us know more how can I check the console logs
to see more about the error. Attached is the screen shot for same. Used
tampermonkey extension to install script and it was running successfully
without displaying any errors in the console. Please update me if I missed
any thing.

Try to reproduce w/o using Tampermonkey. The WCD Snatched script used to
work w/o TM installed.

I'm seeing this on both Windows-8/OSX-Lion for both Chrome v26.0.1410.64
and v27.0.1453.56. This is *not* using the TamperMonkey extension, but
rather just loading the userscript via chrome://extensions. I'm not sure
about the submitter, but in my environment they were loaded via the 'Load
unpacked extension' feature, and were configured to be applicable on a
local file (e.g. 'file:///C:/Users/.../index.html' for the @include). No
other errors in the console minus this: "Uncaught ReferenceError:
GM_xmlhttpRequest is not defined ".

Well tried and Installed the .js file manually, but did not see any error
while installing. Could you please help me more in order to install and run
it manually.

Thanks.

This happened about 1 month ago in google-chrome-beta.i386 for Fedora 17.
Removed beta. Installed google-chrome-stable.i386. Problem resolved.

On latest update today for chrome-stable this problem reoccurs. Version is
27.0.1453.93.

Script in question which runs GM_xmlhttpRequest is a .user.js script
installed manually into Extensions.

A bit more...

Fedora Linux 17 using google-chrome-stable.i386.

1-2 months ago GM_xmlhttpRequest stopped working in google-chrome-beta.i386
for Fedora 17. Response was "Uncaught ReferenceError: GM_xmlhttpRequest is
not defined".

This seems to be going from version 26 to version 27 of Chrome.

Solution at the time was to remove beta and install stable as apparently
beta version was 27, stable was 26.

On latest update today for chrome-stable this problem reoccurs. Response
is "Uncaught ReferenceError: GM_xmlhttpRequest is not defined".

Stable version yesterday was 26.0.1410.63. Stable version today is
27.0.1453.93.
