chrome - prompting me to install gwt plugin but already installed

[cri]

Suddenly today, after months of running gwt in development mode in
conjunction with chrome, I continually get prompted to load the gwt
dev plugin for chrome. However, the plugin is already installed. I
also have ie6 with the plugin installed and there I do not have this
problem. This doesn't seem to be related to my project since I have
the same problem when running the default project created by a brand
new gwt app created by invoking "New Web Application Project". Help!!
Thanks

[Thomas Broyer]

See http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/wiki/TroubleshootingOOPHM

Do you see a gray GWT toolbox in the location bar next to the "bookmark star"?

[dilbert]

I have seen something similar and posted an issue here:

http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/issues/detail?id=5740

The conclusion was that it is a packaging bug in OpenSUSE. What operating system are You using? Maybe it is related so please take a look at the issue and tell us if it behaves similarly. I reported the issue to the OpenSUSE bugzilla but haven't heard from them since. The issue remains unresolved.

[Eric Andresen]

You're not the only one.  This happened to me and one of my co-workers today as well.  There must have been a Chrome update or something that broke the plugin.

We're on Chrome version 9.0.597.83 beta

[Chris Conroy]

We did push an update to the Chrome plugin today. However, that shouldn't cause you to see that behavior. What version are you seeing in chrome://extensions for those that are having problems? Does restarting chrome fix the problem for you?

Restarting Chrome didn't fix the problem.  I also tried uninstalling and re-installing the plugin to no avail.

I'm just started having the same issue. Restarting Chrome or the PC
did not help. I was running 9.0.597.83 beta, but downgraded to
8.0.552.237 with no avail. Windows 7 64-bit. The plug-in version is:

I'm not having any issues with in IE 64-bit or 32-bit.

I'm seeing the same issue - no gray GWT toolbox, just the "Development
mode requires..." yellow box. Was working earlier today. Restart of
Chrome doesn't help, I'll try a reboot to see if that clears it.

Downgrading the plugin gets it working again:

1: Uninstall the current plugin (Tools -> Extensions)
2. Install the older plugin https://dl-ssl.google.com/gwt/plugins/chrome/1.0.9521/gwt-dev-plugin.crx

Confirmed. That works. Thank you!

I have the same Problem on Windows 7 64 Bit
Chrome 8.0.552.237
GWT DMP Plugin (0.9.0)

GWT Developer Plugin - Version: 1.0.9614

Is there already a fix.
How can I get an older Version of the Plugin?

[Rod Bailey]

OK - I confirm that downgrading the plugin version from 1.0.9614 to
1.0.9521 gets dev mode on Windows working again.
But after a short time Chrome auto-updates the GWT plugin back to
version 1.0.9614, and everything does back to not working.

[Vermus]

same thing

[SemperVivo]

I am having the same issue. Please issue an immediate update that will
fix the problem! Thank you.

[Tomi B.]

Does anybody know if it's possible to stop Chrome from auto-updating
the plug-in? I've had to manually downgrade several times already.

[Curtis Stanford]

I've never been able to get it working on Mac since it was released. I'm on the dev channel. It always shows the missing plugin even though the red google toolbox shows in the omni bar.

A fix for the Chrome plugin on windows and fix for OSX Leopard users of the Chrome/Firefox plugins  is in the process of being pushed out. It will be live at 4pm Pacific / 7pm Eastern time.

I'm now seeing the following version:
GWT Developer Plugin - Version: 1.0.9639
A plugin to enable debugging with GWT's Development Mode
ID: jpjpnpmbddbjkfaccnmhnkdgjideieim

Unfortunately, it is exhibiting the exact same behavior. In other
words, I'm still getting the prompt to install the plug-in. A restart
of Chrome did not help. I haven't tried a full reboot, but I didn't
see any hanging chrome.exe instances in Task Manager.

I'm not having much luck with the Windows plugin - I revert to the old
version referenced upthread & everything works, then several hours
later I guess I'm being automagically updated to the new version,
which isn't working. Here's the version string from about:plugins:

GWT DMP Plugin - Version: 0.9.0

I'll manually revert to the old version & hope it's just a cache
problem which means I'm getting the broken version rather than the
fixed version - Chris, what's the version string for the Jan 28th
fixed version?

thanks

Jamie

This is still broken on Mac OS X, Chrome 17.0.963.79, GWT Plugin 1.0.9738. Asks to install plugin after every Chrome restart.

[ks]

bump.  Anyone?

[Jeff Schnitzer]

I am also completely unable to run developer mode in Chrome on OSX. I
have the plugin installed, the toolbox in the omnibar is red, it says
"The host at 127.0.0.1 is allowed to use the plugin"... seems like
everything should work, but it just prompts me over and over to
install the plugin.

Chrome 18.0.1025.151 beta
GWT Developer Plugin 1.0.9738
OSX 10.7.3
Java 1.6.0_31

I'm just coming back to GWT for a client project after about a year
doing more traditional JS frontends. Safari no longer works and
Chrome no longer works... FireFox 10 is working but I'm afraid to
upgrade to FF 11 for fear of breaking the plugin and getting stranded.

What is the state of the developer plugin? I'm having trouble finding
any official documentation of what is supposed to work and what isn't.
Safari I don't care about, but Chrome dev tools are hard to live
without.

Thanks,
Jeff

Safari no longer works and
Chrome no longer works...

You can still use Safari 5.0.5 and possibly 5.0.6 (see: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/google-web-toolkit/uIJ5VqmxO_s/WwHQK0YtaFMJ and http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1422). I have both Safari versions installed side by side in Lion and it works. 

There is also OmniWeb for Mac OS which has used the old Safari 5.0.5 plugin api. But I am not sure if the current version of OmniWeb still works. Haven't tried it.

 

FireFox 10 is working but I'm afraid to
upgrade to FF 11 for fear of breaking the plugin and getting stranded.

Thanks to Alan Leung you can find recent Firefox plugins builds in this group.

Great, but my users aren't using Safari 5.0.5 or OmniWeb. To be
honest I don't really care that much about Safari as long as Chrome
works. But for some reason it doesn't, and the failure mode is
unhelpful. I don't hear a lot of people complaining about this so I
have to wonder - is it something about my system? Or has everyone
just decided that the only way to do GWT+WebKit development is with an
obsolete version of Safari?

I hope this doesn't come across as snotty - I genuinely don't know.
I've been absent from GWT-land for a year, and now when I come back,
nothing works "out of the box". Not one browser.

Yup, after a few tries I got it working. Thankfully, I'm not
completely hobbled - but Firebug is a very poor substitute for Chrome
Dev Tools. How can I get Chrome working?

Thanks,
Jeff

Uninstall the current version of chrome you have and reinstall a recent version.Hope that will help.

 How can I get Chrome working?

Good question. I have the same setup as you and Chrome works well for me on all Macs I am working with. 

Have you tried to delete Chrome and all its com.google.chrome.*.plist files in ~/Library/Preferences and then reinstall it along with the GWT plugin? Do you have any other plugins installed in Chrome? Does your console shows any error messages in the log files? Does it work with the stable version of chrome instead of the beta version? 

You could also globally check your file permissions using Mac OS hard drive utility.

I currently have Chrome version 18.0.1025.151 and GWT plugin version 1.0.9738 installed.

Ok, that's the first piece of information I needed - it *should* work.

I eventually tracked it down to having turned on plugin blocking some
time ago. Perfectly obvious in retrospect, but six months later I had
forgotten that the feature isn't "just block flash" it was "block all
plugins".

I'm up and running. Thanks.

I still think a up-to-date grid somewhere in the docs showing plugin
compatibility would be enormously helpful.

Hello,

I have got the same problem. Here is my Congiguration

I run my Application with the Jetty Server by rick-clicking in Eclipse
and select Run as + g Web Application.
Then I richt click in the Development Mode tab on the url and select
Open With : Google Chrome.
A page is diplayed : "Development Mode requires the Google Web Toolkit

I haved tried to install the old version of the plugins but the URLs
displayed above are now broken.

Can someone help me ?

Best regards,

[Xavophonic]

Hi,

Here is my configuration

Google Web Toolkit 2.0.4 on my server Jetty.
Chrome version 18.0.1025.162 m
Windows XP PS3.
Google Web Toolkit Developer Plugin version 1.0.9738.

After installed the plugin, I restart Chrome. I come back to my
development page. I still have got the message : "Development Mode
requires the Google Web Toolkit Developer Plugin". I tried the former
URLs to an old version of the plugin, but they are broken.

Publishing the old version of the plugin in the extention gallery
would be helpfull.

Could someone help me ?

Best regards,

Xavier
