I was starting coding with GWT following the tutorial at

http://code.google.com/intl/it/webtoolkit/doc/latest/tutorial/create.html

when the tutorial tells to connect to the 'development mode code
server' the browser ask to install a plugin.
With Firefox everything works fine, but with Chrome every time I try
to connect to the server it asks to install it

http://code.google.com/intl/it/webtoolkit/doc/latest/tutorial/images/MissingPlugin.png

even if it is listed under

chrome://extensions/

I'd like to know what am I missing.

TIA

Something useful
GWT developer pulgin version: 1.0.9738
Chrome versione : 12.0.742.112

What OS/distro and architecture are you running on? Are you running stock chrome or chromium, or did you get a repackaging from your distro? (SUSE for example is known to repackage chromium in an incompatible way\)

Hi Chris,

the OS is Windows XP 5.1.2600 SP2, and the browser has been installed via the installer easily downloadable from http://www.google.com/chrome/

Vlad,

Double check your firewall settings. If you can, try disabling any firewall that you are running for temporary troubleshooting. Do you see a gray toolbox when you try to connect via chrome? If you don't see a red toolbox in the url bar, then go to the extension's options page and whitelist your host.

Hi Chris,

I turned off the firewall to avoid any conflict, and also added my ip address, something like 26.2...., and the loopback ip address to the

GWT Developer option page, but Chrome still asks for installing the Google Web Toolkit Developer Plugin.

You may want to try the offline installation

Firefox - https://dl.google.com/dl/gwt/plugins/firefox/gwt-dev-plugin.xpi

Chrome - https://dl.google.com/dl/gwt/plugins/chrome/gwt-dev-plugin.crx

Safari - https://dl.google.com/dl/gwt/plugins/safari/gwt-dev-plugin.dmg

Nope, I try to install the plugin from a folder where it has been extracted...
