Description mysteriousmonkey29 2015-09-08 02:23:16 UTC
Hello, I'm using NetBeans 8.0.2, and Google Chrome 45.0.2454.85 (Official Build) m (32-bit), Revision 4321fbd965a0cfb327829005e6054c07669f81d5-refs/branch-heads/2454@{#439}

When I tried to run an HTML project, it tells me that I don't have NetBeans connector installed, even though I do. The only way to get the message to go away is by uninstalling the connector and reinstalling it, but this only solves the problem until I close the tab and then try to rerun it. This happens for any new projects I tried to create, although I do have one old project that it does not happen for (not sure what's different about this one). I think this started happening after I enabled the silent debugging flag in chrome, although I have since enabled it and the problem did not go away.

I'm using Windows 7 professional, 64-bit.

This is a duplicate of issue 254083 that has been fixed in the latest development builds of NetBeans (the root cause is an unexpected change in the layout of Google Chrome configuration files). We are just in the process of releasing a patch for NetBeans 8.0.x. So, you can install and use the development build of NetBeans available at http://bits.netbeans.org/download/trunk/nightly/latest/ for now and you should be able to update your NetBeans 8.0.x build in few days (using Tools > Plugins menu).

Thanks, but that build did not solve the problem. And I'm not sure if it's a duplicate, because it does recognize that I have it installed if I uninstall it and then reinstall it, but only then until I close the tab and try to rerun the project.

Could you, please, provide the exact version of NetBeans where you can still reproduce the problem. You can find it in Help > About dialog (the value of Product Version field). Thank you in advance.

Yes, these are exactly symptoms of the duplicate/fixed bug.

Actually sorry, when I installed the different build, I accidentally ran the original version instead of the newly installed one. Using that build solved the problem.

Thanks!
