Extension stopped working #471

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Please answer the questions about build version and network, will save
developers a lot of time !

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Clicking on Google Chrome to phone extension 
2. Pop us message: Please sign in to Chrome to Phone
3. When clicking on "sign in" - opens new tab "Redirecting..." and stops there

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Expected - send same web page to phone, but instead it opens new tab in web 
browser saying "Redirecting..." and just stays like this without any further 
activities.

What version of the android, in Settings -> About phone -> Build number (
ex. FRFxx ) ? If less than FRF50 - see the FAQ.

Android 4.1.1 . Was working just fine until few days ago. I didn't update or 
installed anything new. Obviously its an extension issue in web browser.

Is the phone using WiFi or mobile network when problem occurs ? If Wifi,
are you behind a firewall that blocks outgoing connections ?

Tried both, same issue. 

Can you open "Gmail" application ? Do you see new messages without hitting
'refresh' ?

I do not, I am signed in into phone, and web browser.

Can you open "Talk" application ? Do you see incoming chats ?
Yes I can open it - no new incoming chats. 

Please provide any additional information below.

This is because the extension still uses manifest version 1. A discussion about 
this issue is also started at issue #162 (i hope it auto links, since i'm 
entering this on my cell)

Are you sure this is releated to the manifest version? According to the 
official support schedule 
(http://developer.chrome.com/extensions/manifestVersion.html), Chrome will not 
stop loading and running manifest version 1 extensions before Q3/2013.

You're right, ttr, I did not see it only applied to 'in development' 
extensions, so indeed the current version should still work (unless he loaded 
the extension in dev. mode), but the result dkrussi experiences seems to be the 
same. dkrussi: could you check the console tab in the developer tools (F12) for 
errors?

Thanks for trying to help me out guys! 

Extension still doesnt work. I tired to reinstall it but didnt do any good.

By hitting F12, shows no breakpoints. 

But when checking for errors, shoes that:

Port error: Could not establish connection. Receiving end does not exist. 
miscellaneous_bindings:235

2. closing script tag manually 
chrome-extension://lifbcibllhkdhoafpjfnlhfpfgnpldfl/get_html_text.js:57

Any ideas? Unless i am not looking at the right place ...

The first error is probably not related to your problem: It's been around since 
Chrome 20 and probably related to an API switch from . See issue 451, issue 
316, and a couple of other duplicates.

Are you using the latest stable Chrome?

I am using Version 23.0.1271.95 m

Just installed it from Google, not a developer option tho.
Do you think I should re-install Chrome then?

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
I don't think that's necessary or helpful. Just wanted to know whether you're 
running the latest Chrome.

You could try to set a breakpoint and see if the code flow breaks at some point.

Original comment by ttr...@googlemail.com on 10 Dec 2012 at 9:26

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
yeah, i tried, just says there are no breakpoints. 
Is a little video of chrome to phone issue will be helpful ? 
I really dont know what is causing it.

P.S. tried to log out and then log back in as well as reinstalling extension. 
Didnt do anything.

Not sure if a video will help; I think I have a pretty good understanding at 
which part of the control flow your problem shows up. Just can't think of a 
possible cause yet.

Have you tried creating a fresh new profile, install the extension there, and 
see if it works? If so, you may have some kind of conflict with an existing 
extension (possibly one that manipulates HTTP requests).

Yeah, i will try to create a new profile tomorrow or something. Having finals 
week so cant really get hard on this issue right now tho.

Do you know if there will be any fix or update coming anytime soon that may fix 
my problem?

Unfortunately, I don't know about any potential fixes for your problem; this is 
mainly due to the fact that I don't know yet what the root cause for your issue 
is. Examining how the application behaves in a fresh and clean new profile will 
hopefully bring us a step closer. I've seen situations where extensions would 
not play together nicely, but that's just one possible explanation. 

By the way, creating a new profile in Chrome has become as simple as going to 
the preferences and chosing a name. So if you find some spare five minutes 
during your finals week you may want to give it a quick try. :-)

I just tried to add new user but no luck there. Extension still has the same 
issue.
Can it be due to Windows 8 capabilities or something?

I also got AdBlock for chrome but i tried to disable it and run without it and 
still didnt work...

Confusing.
Is there a way to look up the error report specifically for Chrome-To Phone?

I'm not that familiar with the extension code to tell whether there's such a 
thing as an error report or similar. In general, unless the extension 
maintainer provides additional debugging facilities, all you can do is trace 
the code in the (admittedly very good) Chrome developer tools. 

I'll try to take a look at the code section in question and see if I can find a 
reason why the redirection won't work in your case. I'm currently short on 
time, however, and will need to get more accustomed to OAuth in order to 
understand what's going on; so please don't expect a quick answer. If someone 
else with more expertise on the field is willing to jump in, just go ahead. 

Not sure if Windows 8 could be the problem, I rather doubt it. The technologies 
involved seem too far away from the OS layer.

You also stated that you can't see new Gmail messages automatically but need to 
hit refresh. That possibly has an influence as well though I can't tell which.

Actually, Gmail is back to normal right now.
I am not sure, if was acting out really weird couple days ago.

I think its due to the fact that my school's email is also powered by Gmail - 
its @edu but just uses gmail server.

sometimes when i got 2 accounts open, then i dont see new emails and have to 
hit refresh.
But i figured that its better just leave one account open at once.

I just tried re installing everything, phone app and cpu extension. My phone 
has android version 4.0.3 as of right now, it recently went though a system 
update. Everything was working fine a few months ago, and then it just stopped 
working all together. Led me to the "Redirecting" page and stays their. PLEASE 
FIX THIS. or let me know how to!

This is still not working for me. On clicking the C2P icon I get the small 
popup saying "Please sign in to Chrome to Phone." Clicking the link takes me to 
a sign in page with the following warning at the top:
"We are unable to verify the name associated with this application because it 
runs on your computer, as opposed to on a website. We recommend you do not 
allow access unless you trust the application."
On clicking "Allow access" I am redirected to a completely empty page - no HTML 
even.
