Google Earth Plugin support for Internet Explorer 10 (IE10) #918

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
google.earth.isSupported() shows that the browser theoretically is supportet, 
but even when visiting

http://www.google.com/earth/explore/products/plugin.html

the plug-in crashes while loading, giving the error code 
"SUCCESS_RECENT_INSTALL_RESTART".

One has to switch to compatibility view to see the plug-in working.

Problem is no one knows that there is a compatibility mode and the users will 
think the site is broken... In addition we don't want to stick to IE7 
technology on our page  :(

I have the same problem for my site in ie10. I was forced to use a 
compatibility mode meta tag and it seems to work in my environment (Win7/IE10 
v. 10.0.9200.16521). However, not a lot of people I know, nor most of the users 
of my site, have ie10, so I am not sure if the outcome is the same for other 
people.

Can you specify the plugin version you are seeing this with?  You can check the 
plugin version with ge.getPluginVersion().toString()

I have been able to recreate the issue in:
Win7/IE10 v. 10.0.9200.16521/plugin version 6.2.1.6014
and again in Win7/IE10 v. 10.0.9200.16521/plugin version 7.0.3.8542

I used your webpage to get plugin version

I am having the same issue on Windows 7 (64 bit) and the latest IE 10, v. 
10.0.9200.16635, update version 10.0.7.  GE Plugin Version: 7.1.1.1888 

Running with the IE "F12 Developer Tools" debugger, I get the  message:

SEC7111: HTTPS security is compromised by 
https://www.google.com/earth/plugin/error.html 

In other cases, this type of error has been be associated with mixing http and 
https access. I have tried reducing the security level to Medium and also tried 
to enable
mixed content with no effect.  There is nothing wrong with the URL.  I can 
access this page by typing in the URL , which is  just the Google Earth error 
image page. Note that URL for this image uses https, which perhaps creates some 
IE security issue.

I do not see a crash as reported above but, after updating the GE plugin to the 
latest (7.1.1.1888) and restarting IE 10 32b (10.0.9200.16635), I am in the 
same state as before the update (i.e. the 
http://www.google.com/earth/explore/products/plugin.html page reports that I 
need to upgrade the plugin).
The link works well with Firefox (23.0), Opera (12.12) and Chrome 
(28.0.1500.95) work fine.
If I drop the plugin in a LabVIEW 32b 2012 active-X container, nothing works 
anymore (but did work with GE plugin 7.1.1.1580).

I get the attached response no matter how many times I restart...  I have 
whatever version the site currently links to installed.

Tucker,
I sympathize -- had the same problem, had given up hope, then ... it started 
working. Don't know how though.

Also experiencing this, compatibility mode is no good if the rest of the page 
needs to be in 'proper' mode :(

#11: Doesn't setting document & browser mode in F12 developer tools to IE9 
work?  Know no reason why that would stuff up the page...

I am encountering this problem too. If I run in standards mode I get this 
problem, if I run in IE 9 mode I have issues with getting consistent layout 
between IE, FF and Chrome,

I am not sure how this could be regarded as an enhancement, surely it is a bug.

Adding support for a new browser is not a bug...

Reminder, as per josh above, adding
    <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=9">
to your <header> would force IE10 to work as though it is IE9, and that must 
have been how i got mine working. Problem is, as mark.d suggests, you lose the 
html5 support that MS finally added to IE10.

I have the same problem with IE 10 on Windows 8. If I switch to IE to it 
crushes with the "SUCCESS_RECENT_INSTALL_RESTART" error

Same problem here. IE10 only works in compatibility mode and IE9 document mode. 
This is a huge portion of my visitors! When will a fix be forthcoming?

I am getting the same problem on this site:
http://www.provisualizer.com/courses/augustanational.php
Click on "3D Planner" to see the error.
The site works perfectly with Chrome and Firefox.

I am having the same issue for my site. Was wondering if there is a solution 
for this problem. The worrying part is all my users are upgrading to 10 soon. 
Feeling hopeless.

Any Ideas. ?????

I am using Internet Explorer to render Google Earth using Google API and Google 
Earth plugin in one of my projects. When I am setting default document mode of 
my page to IE 10 using the following tag <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" 
content="IE=10,chrome=1" />, it fails to recognize Google Earth plugin and 
throws the following message "SUCCESS_RECENT_INSTALL_RESTART".After clicking OK 
button in the message popup, I am getting the attached image.

But when I use ie8 as default document mode, IE is able to recognize my plugin 
and there is no issues initializing Google Earth.
