Can you include the relevant code?  The file that tries to use chrome.tabs, the context for that file, and the manifest.json file?

Could not attach the file 

I have a function move to tab
function moveToTab() {
  chrome.windows.update(parseInt($('.selected')[0].children[4].innerHTML), { focused: true });
  chrome.tabs.update(parseInt($('.selected')[0].children[3].innerHTML), { selected: true });
}

this will be called when user clicks on an item like this
item.addEventListener('click', function () { moveToTab() });

Where is this code located?
Content script/executeScript (1)? Extension tab/browser or page action popup/background/event page (2)?
(1) cannot use chrome.tabs or chrome.windows. You must pass a message to (2) and they will call chrome.tabs or chrome.windows.
You should see a console error for (1), I believe. And in case it does not work in (2), see if there is a console error as well.

Im using the page action popup. so What I will do is fetch all the chrome tabs and try to insert it in the DOM and add an action called movetotab to that element. In the console Im getting the error only `cannot read property update of undefined` which is because chrome.tabs returning undefined. So Is this issue with the context?

I cannot reproduce. I attached a 7-zip created archive with a sample extension.

Your extension seems to work perfectly on my Windows Chrome 61.

In the first post of this thread, you mention that it is also not working in "development mode in Mac OS", do you mean that it stops working once you tick the "Developer mode" check box in chrome:extensions?
If so, I do not think it has any material influence on anything other than the chrome:extensions design...

Im using windows chrome 61 and its not working properly. Can you try installing the extension from following link https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/go-to-tab/hjfkaobgkmaeomgdhmhhipdbjdhhjkoi?hl=en
The use of this extension is, it will list all the tabs in all the windows, and when you click on a tab it will navigate to that tab. 

And regarding Mac setup, its not working when Im having break points in the inspect popup of the chrome extension. 

Thanks for your help

Yes. we are seeing this as well. About 1-2 % of users get chrome.tabs as undefined. I am not sure why. We just recently added ability to capture these exceptions with sentry.io so I am not sure how much it was happening historically. 

I have looked through chrome bugs but I didn't see anything there. I also did a bunch of google search and still can't find any relevant info. Most posts are related to people wanting to call the chrome.tabs api form contentscript which does not work. 

I have seen this error on both mac and windows and different versions of chrome. So my suspicion is maybe is related to a setting in chrome that the user has restricted. If it was a default setting we would have seen a lot more of it. 

Praveen - Do you have a consistent repro of this?

I am not sure such setting exists. It sounds like bindings issue to me. Devlin, any idea?

Digging more. It looks like it only happens in older version of chrome. I have not seen this on the newer chrome versions.

You should probably strongly urge those users to update.
Old Chrome versions are completely unsupported, have many, many known security issues and bugs will never be fixed on those versions.
Unless you find a workaround, there is nothing to do here...

There is an existing bug, crbug.com/769823, which demonstrates that sometimes we incorrectly classify JS contexts in the extension system.  In that bug, it manifests by not exposing all the proper methods on runtime, but for the tabs, API, it would result in it not being visible at all.

All instances I've seen of that so far have been edge cases where the extension tries to access APIs in an unclassified frame (i.e., one that isn't fully instantiated, like an about:blank iframe), and thus isn't granted privileged bindings.  If you have a reliable repro that shows this happening elsewhere (e.g., in the main frame of your background page, extension popup, or a tab open to an extension page), please attach it here or on the bug.

You should probably strongly urge those users to update.
Old Chrome versions are completely unsupported, have many, many known security issues and bugs will never be fixed on those versions.
Somewhat unrelated, but I can't agree with this or stress this more.

Aha. That is very interesting. My problem is indeed very similar. We insert an iframe into the page via the content script. The content of that iframe is a regular extension page from chrome-extension://

So I tried to get some more information of the platform by updating the users and calling getPlatformInfo on the same page and attaching the result to the exception tracker we use (sentry.io). But now I am getting 

chrome.runtime.getPlatformInfo is not a function

And this "getPlatformInfo is not a function" is happening on chrome 62 as well. It happens occasionally so maybe it is timing issue of the page not being ready somehow. I suspect the angualr app takes substantial amount of time get setup and load and that should be enough for chrome to have made chrome.runtime ready. So I think this is somehow related to the chrome.tabs not being ready either. 

Should I be waiting for some event before calling chrome.runtime api ? 


Thanks in advance

I have a valid reproduction in 62.0.3202.89. Im using the page action popup and the issue occurs in a fully instantiated page. Also Im not using any iframe or background JS.  Im getting the error `lazy require of tabs.bindings did not set the binding fields`. Will this help?

If you meant to unsubscribe -
Try sending a blank e-mail to chromium-extens...@chromium.org (note that +unsubscribe in the address, it is important). If you already did exactly that, skip this.
If that does not work and you are still getting e-mails -
2. Click on the button that has an icon of a head and shoulders.
3. Click on "Leave group" and you are done. Or -
 a. Select in the selection box - "Don't send email updates".
 b. Click on "Save".

Im using the page action popup. so What I will do is fetch all the chrome tabs and try to insert it in the DOM and add an action called movetotab to that element. In the console Im getting the error only `cannot read property update of undefined` which is because chrome.tabs returning undefined. So Is this issue with the context?

Content script/executeScript (1)? Extension tab/browser or page action popup/background/event page (2)?
(1) cannot use chrome.tabs or chrome.windows. You must pass a message to (2) and they will call chrome.tabs or chrome.windows.
You should see a console error for (1), I believe. And in case it does not work in (2), see if there is a console error as well.

Hi, 

Can anyone try the chrome extension https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/go-to-tab/hjfkaobgkmaeomgdhmhhipdbjdhhjkoi?hl=en in pixel chromebook. It seems the above said bug is repeating for some users. Im getting the error `lazy require of tabs.bindings did not set the binding fields`. Thanks in advance.
