I’m doing a Firefox addon but I’m currently getting this error in the Error Console.
Could not read chrome manifest ‘file:///Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/extensions/%7B972ce4c6-7e08-4474-a285-3208198ce6fd%7D/chrome.manifest’.
And of course the script doesn’t load. Any suggestions?
PS: The chrome.manifest file exists and has the current code inside
content fbp chrome/content/ contentaccessible=yes
overlay chrome://browser/content/browser.xul chrome://fbp/content/tracker.xul
This warning is unrelated to your extension.
{972ce4c6-7e08-4474-a285-3208198ce6fd}is the ID of the default Firefox theme. And sure enough – it doesn’t have achrome.manifestfile so this warning comes up on every browser start. Just ignore the warning.As to why your script doesn’t load – that’s a different question that is impossible to answer with the information provided.
