gwt developer tools IE8 plugin install problem on Windows 7 - gwt

Today I started testing a gwt application on a new notebook with Windows 7. Testing with Firefox went OK, then I started it in IE8. The "Development Mode requires the Google Web Toolkit Developer Plugin" comes up, fine, click on Download. A moment (and a download) later, an IE security warning window comes up ("Do you want to run this software?"), click Run. BTW, I started IE as Administrator...
Then a nice progress bar is displayed, with an "Initializing..." the text above, and it stays stuck forever.
Any ideas?

I had same issue, I think the installer isn't registering the plugin dll correctly. You can do this manually in a command prompt via:
regsvr32.exe "C:\Users\<your user name>\AppData\Local\Google\Google Web
Toolkit\Developer Plugin\IE\oophm.dll"
This is based on a post on the GWT groups.

Blackberry Ripple Emulator on click start services does nothing

I want to package and launch my BlackBerry Hello World application for WebWorks. For developement, I am using the Ripple emulator. The Ripple simulator says:
The build and deploy services are not currently running, would you like to start them?
After pressing the button Start Services nothing happens and no errors are in the error console.and i also did below steps as i have searched and get this result:
There are two reasons this might be happening. The first is that Chrome is preventing this from happening.
Open the Tools --> Extensions screen in Chrome
Enable 'Developer Mode' checkbox if it isn't already
Are you running Chrome in Incognito mode? If so enable the 'Allow in Incognito' checkbox
The other options is that nodejs is being blocked. If you're on windows, I'd suggest making sure that all user permissisons are enabled to allow you to run Chrome in a way that it can launch external processes.
And After doing all when ever i refresh page it says
The build and deploy services are currently running at localhost:9910. and after loading that page this message not visible but
The build and deploy services are not currently running, would you like to start them? message still there! please explain what's wrong here?
Thanks
This issue is solved by removing Ripple extension version 0.9.15 and installing version 0.9.16 (latest as of this posting), and restarting Chrome. When you click the 'Start Services' button, the console should appear displaying a build service start up message.

Getting rid of browser restart on plugin installation

I have been working on a browser plugin for windows which involves displaying camera output in browser. Presently I'm working on Windows 7. After plugin installation, I want to start the plugin immediately without restarting the browser. I noticed that as soon as plugin is registered, it started working in Google Chrome Version 24.0.1312 as well as in Internet Explorer 9. But it fails to do so in Mozilla Firefox 18.0.1. Can anyone help me solve this problem of restarting the browser after plugin installation. And will this problem occur in MacOS as well?
Thanks
You need to do a navigator.plugins.refresh(false); in javascript to tell the browser to rescan the plugins.

Blackberry webview can not connect to internet and/or display a web page

I am creating a simple app using Eclipse and Blackberry JRE 7.0 as per the example given at:
http://docs.blackberry.com/en/developers/deliverables/11958/Configure_a_browser_field_825671_11.jsp
I am trying to load a simple HTML page hosted on a remote server inside browser field in the app.
When running the app on 9930 Simulator I always get the error 'Local connection timeout after 120000 on simulator'. The same remote page shows up fine on the web browser of the same simulator..
I am making sure to start the MDS simulator.
The same link shows up fine in simulator browser. Its only when using browserfield, I am having the problem.
I get the folling error when clicking the icon to launch the app:
Error displaying content for: http://yahoo.com
Error message: java.lang.runtimeException:ApplicationRegistry:wai​tFor
(0xd0fe7d7338fourd7f0d) timeout
....
On waiting further I get the 'Local connection timeout error..
I know that in Android one has to enable internet connection when using the webview in the manifest file - is there any similar setting one has to do in blackberry?
I tried to run the BrowserField demo app on 9930 (JRE 7.0.0) and encounter the same issues as you did. On the other hand, the demo worked fine on 9800 (JRE 6.0.0). I tried again on 9930 and noticed that though I definitely enabled MDS (enabled the 'Launch Mobile Data System Connection Service (MDS-CS) with simulator' in the Run/Debug Configurations in Eclipse), the MDS window didn't appear which seemed very strange.
I googled a little and found this post on BlackBerry's forums. According to this post:
An incorrect version of MDS-CS simulator was included in 7.0. To correct it you can delete it and copy the version from 6.0.
Well done, RIM!
Then, I deleted the MDS folder from JRE 7.0.0 and copied the one from JRE 6.0.0 as described in the aforementioned post. Closed and rerun simulator and voilà, the MDS window appeared. Rerun application, and everything worked like a charm!

Cannot install Google Web Toolkit Developer Plugin in Google Chrome

I am using Windows XP SP2 and Chrome (version 9.0.597.19) but every time I run gwt in developer mode I see:
"Development Mode requires the Google Web Toolkit Developer Plugin..."
No matter how many times I install it.
How can it be that gwt developer mode is not running in google's own chrome in xp sp2?? This is outrageous??!! It is working in FF but is very slow.
Do you have Click-to-activate-plugins enabled in Chrome? I had, and I had to click on the little puzzle piece in the URL-bar and select that all plugins may run on 127.0.0.1.
Google Web Toolkit plugin is for Firefox 3.5.x and 3.6.x and
probably Google Chrome 7. I'm also using Chrome (version 9.0.597.19) which doesn't support GWT plugin
I was having this same problem. Every time I clicked "Download the GWT Developer Plugin
For Chrome" it would start to load and then just stop without anything happening. Eventually I opened the link in a new tab and got a captcha with this message:
"Our systems have detected unusual traffic from your computer network. This page checks to see if it's really you sending the requests, and not a robot."
Maybe you are having the same problem?

GWT getting missing-plugins message

When i tried to run an GWT sample application i got a missing-plugins on firefox (or Chrome) it seems that i'm missingg something just dont know what to do in order to make it works...
any ideas??
You need to install the Google Web Toolkit Developer Plugin:
In the development mode window you
will find the URL for the local
server. Paste this URL into Firefox,
Internet Explorer, Chrome, or Safari.
Since this is your first time hitting
the development mode server, it will
prompt you to install the Google Web
Toolkit Developer Plugin. Follow the
instructions in the browser to install
the plugin. Once the Google Web
Toolkit Developer Plugin is installed
in your browser, navigate to the URL
again and the starter application will
load in development mode.
