I received multiple reports about the following cryptic error in the Chrome extension when the user tried to open a local file:
This error most likely originated from core/stream.js:
arrayBuffer
isnull
, and that in turn is caused by the fact that for non-existing files, there is no data. I've applied two fixes:instead.
To get the error, simply install the Chrome extension, open any PDF file to get the extension URL, and then append some non-existent local file. E.g.
chrome-extension://oemmndcbldboiebfnladdacbdfmadadm/file:///tmp/doesnotexist.pdf
