Firebug Lite in Chrome won't open

[Darryl Rubarth]

When I try to open Firebug Lite in Chrome on some sites, I get the following errors.  I've removed and re-installed the extension.  I can see these errors when I just open the Javascript console.

(x)Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'push' of undefined        

chrome-extension://bmagokdooijbeehmkpknfglimnifench/firebug-lite.js:30905 

(2) Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'toggle' of undefined     

(program):1

The specific function of code in firebug-lite.js for the first error is below.  It appears that messageQueue is somehow no longer an array.  The sites I've seen this on are AngularJS sites.

this.logRow = function(message, className)
{
    var panel = this.getPanel();
   
    if (panel && panel.panelNode)
        this.writeMessage(message, className);
    else
    {
        this.messageQueue.push([message, className]);
    }
   
    return this.LOG_COMMAND;
};

Below is a link to an Angular demo page that I'm having this issue with.

Please let me know if others have the same problem opening Firebug Lite in Chrome for this page.

thanks!

Did you work out a solution?

I am experiencing the same error when viewing this website:

Note that Firebug Lite development is abandoned for years now. So I suggest you either switch to Firebug (the Firefox extension), or in case you want to keep using Chrome for debugging use their DevTools, or use the Firefox built-in DevTools, which allow to debug both browsers, Firefox normally and Chrome via remote debugging.
