adblock plus 0.5.10 not working with sm nightlies

Post by einpoklum »

Using sm trunk 2005-11-24 on WinXP SP2. Installation 'semi-fails' with code -239 - chrome registration fails. After 2 restarts it seems to have been installed after all, and even overlays flash properly, but when I try to 'adblock iframe', nothing happens and I get the following error:

Error: data has no properties
Source File: chrome://adblock/content/adblock.js
Line: 1097

I've registered... hope it's gonna be worth my while :?

So, any suggestions? Has anyone else encountered this problem?

It's because you've got a previous installation, try installing this version which allows you to install over the top:

I've installed the latest version, and it's only half-functional. Can't add new filters, URL doesn't show up in new filter dialog, can't overlay flash, etc. Still getting:

Error: target has no properties
Source File: chrome://adblock/content/adblock.js
Line: 950

with version 0.5.11, some of the times.

Right, now that you've got a later version installed are you able to uninstall successfully from "Adblock Options->deinstall"? That will remove old rdf entries that could be causing problems, allowing you to reinstall Adblock Plus 0.5.11.1 that should hopefully work now.
