Browser cannot be initialized error when request for a certificate with tizen-sdk

Question

When I try to request for a new certificate with tizen-sdk 2.4.0_Rev5 in Register Certificate, I get the following error Browser cannot be initialized.

I changed the path to chrome in Preferences->Tizen SDK->Web->Chrome to fit my actual path, and it works well with the simulator. I am using linux and I tried with chromium and google-chrome-stable.

Does your Chrome is installed in the default path or in different location?and also check the Extra parameters: --no-first-run --activate-on-launch --no-default-browser-check --allow-file-access-from-files --disable-web-security --disable-translate --proxy-auto-detect --proxy-bypass-list=127.0.0.1 – Mcneill

As I said I changed the default path to my chrome path. I checked the options too. And for the simulator chrome is found. – Chimp

Usually the default path is: /opt/google/chrome/google-chrome, so changing the default path may create the problem. – Mcneill

I do not get your comment. Anyway, I have an installation of google-chrome in `/opt/google/chrome/' and it does not work for the registration (but for the simulation it is okay). – Chimp

I am referring that "The Google Chrome™ browser location is automatically set as default if the Chrome™ browser is installed in your system. In case you install the browser in a custom path, the IDE cannot automatically detect the path and you must set the location manually." Help Link: developer.tizen.org/development/tools/web-tools/… – Mcneill

At which step are you seeing the "Browser cannot be initialized" error? – Corlisscorly

I click on Create new certificate, fill in the form, and the message appears when I click on Request. – Chimp

If your problem still continues, then I would suggest you to uninstall and re-install the Tizen SDK, and before re-install then delete all tizen-sdk & tizen-sdk-data folder. That might help you. – Mcneill

I did try that, but without any results. And it is the same with the installation of rev6. – Chimp

I am using Mac, I have these settings in Tizen IDE for Chrome:

Could you please double check the Extra parameters list:

--no-first-run --activate-on-launch --no-default-browser-check --allow-file-access-from-files --disable-web-security --disable-translate --proxy-auto-detect --proxy-bypass-list=127.0.0.1
