Could not load extension icon 'icon16.png' #24

Open lrapetti opened 5 years ago

lrapetti commented 5 years ago

I am trying to install the package from the Chrome Web Store, and I am getting the following error:

Package is invalid. Details: 'Could not load extension icon 'icon16.png'.'.

System: macOS High Serra 10.13.6 browser: Google Chrome Version 70.0.3538.77

Same error on Chromebook / Chrome

orsharir commented 5 years ago

This is odd... I cannot reproduce this error on my own system (macOS Mohave and Chrome 70.0.3538.77). Try to see if you can manually install the package from source (using the development mode).

It works perfectly on� Vivaldi (2.0.1309.29 (Stable channel) (64-bit)), on Windows10� It's difficult to debug on Chromebook because can only access playstore. Not a problem (I only use it on desktop) - was just adding a data point � Thanks for the package! Martin

it worked on my windows chrome, but didn't work and appeared same issue on my linux chromium. I finally resolved by steps below: 1st, git clone the current repository to local path(git clone https://github.com/orsharir/github-mathjax.git); 2nd, open the chrome/chromium extensions page(chrome://extensions), open development mode, and click 'Load unpacked' button to choose the path which configuration file 'manifest.json' is located(path 'github-mathjax' as usual), and the extension is loaded. 3rd, open the github pages which contains MathJax Latex, and testing the result above.

If you do this, the unpacked extension has to stay where you loaded it from. A better way:

Maybe this helps someone :)

Any solutions without git clone or hacking?

If you do this, the unpacked extension has to stay where you loaded it from. A better way:

  • Clone the github repository
  • Go to chrome://extensions/, turn on Developer Mode

  • Click on "pack extension", choose the folder where you cloned github repository to

    • This will create an github-mathjax.crx file
  • Drag the github-mathjax.crx file into google chrome
  • After confirming, the extension is now installed
  • Now delete the cloned github repository and the .crx file, you don't need it anymore!

Maybe this helps someone :)

great! issue fixed by ur way

nschloe commented 4 years ago

This issue prompted me to write my own MathJax extension, Green Pi. It uses teh new MathJax and you can use it on all domains (GitHub and GitLab are the factory settings). You can get it for

(Same code base btw.) I'll be happy about feedback!

I fixed what sounds to be this exact problem idk tho. In my manifest I had 'icon.png' but the file was 'Icon.png', windows doesn't care/throw an error but linux/mac/Chromebook systems will be case sensitive.

Thank you SO much TheIrishPizzaGuy, after being completely baffled by some of the above responses. Changing the Case of 1 letter worked for me. You saved me so much time and a lot of hair-pulling!
