Hi, 


I have made an pnacl module, and now I want to test it on different machines. The problem comes when the user has no access to internet and the chrome is installed using the standaloneinstaller, thus the PNaCl translator is not installed. 


Is there an offline installer for same, because there machines cant be connected to internet. 

Thanks

There is no offline installer, but there is nothing special to do besides copy files. You can copy the PNaCl translator files from a machine with internet access (and the PNaCl translators already downloaded) over to the machines without internet access.

See the "PNaCl translator path" under chrome://nacl/, for the source directory of the copy, and place the copy in a similar destination. Usually this is somewhere in user-data-dir (adjacent to all of the user profiles), under the "pnacl" directory. Note that the path has "_platform_specific" as one of the subdirectories. This means that the files are architecture specific. E.g, if the machine with internet access is ARM, then the machines without internet access should be ARM too (otherwise find a matching machine with internet access so that you can get the right files).

If you ever copy a new chrome over to the machines without internet access to "update chrome", be sure to also copy and update the "pnacl" directory too.

Hi, I also figured out the same, and it worked perfectly fine for me.

Thanks a lot for the help.

Hi, Is there any other way to get the translator on my computer? I came from China, all computers I can access don't have the translator installed.  
Thanks,
Bin

I'm facing the same issue here. Install on first use feature of PNaCl translator does not work for users of chrome in China. Probably because of GFW activity.
I hope this translator can be inlined in chrome installation.
