I managed to build Ripple Emulator open source (https://github.com/apache/incubator-ripple).
I built it per the instructions (Jake build), which create the Chrome Extension Target that allows me to test my web apps via a chrome extension of my built, as per https://github.com/apache/incubator-ripple/blob/master/doc/chrome_extension.md.
I successfully loaded the unpacked extension onto chrome, but when I enable it nothing happens, though the page reloads the extension does not work, instead I get 2 errors:
Uncaught ReferenceError: webkitNotifications is not defined
webkitNotifications.createHTMLNotification('/views/update.html').show();Unchecked runtime.lastError while running tabs.executeScript: Cannot access a chrome:// URL
chrome.tabs.executeScript(tabId, {
How do I solve this problem?
