HOW TO CLEAR THE CHROME MESSAGE ASKING YOU TO AGREE TO ADOBE READER’S EULA
BEFORE VIEWING A PDF (OS X ONLY)

Do you see this error message when you try to view a PDF in Chrome?

Thanks but that didn’t fix it.

“Before viewing PDF documents in this browser you must launch Adobe Reader and
accept the End User License Agreement, then Quit and relaunch the browser.”

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The only suggestions I could find to resolve it were to open Adobe Reader and
accept the EULA (which I wasn’t prompted to accept upon opening) or delete the
Adobe plugin altogether which isn’t really an option for me.  Luckily, there is
a single file that appears to be responsible for this and deleting it did the
trick. To remove:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

1. Clear browsing data from Google Chrome, then quit Chrome.
2. Open the Finder.
3. Press Command+Shift+G to bring up the “Go to Folder…” window and enter the
following text:


     ~/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default/


4. Once that folder is open, find the file called “Preferences”, copy it to your
desktop (in case you want it back), then move it to the trash.
5. Open Chrome and navigate back to the PDF, it should open without complaining.

HOW TO FORCE INSTALL CHROME EXTENSIONS IN OS X USING JAMF CASPER SUITE

First things first, this is for Mac OS X only, not Windows. Specifically, I have
tested this on 10.8 (Mountain Lion) and 10.9 (Mavericks). I make no promises for
any other OSes.

We have a Chrome extension developed by one of our developers (@Cycododge,
without whom this post would not have been possible) for an internal site. My
boss would like it force-installed on everyone’s computers which has proven to
be quite difficult. So far, the only way we have been able to successfully do
this on 10.8 and 10.9 is through MCX.

We are hosting our extension on our internal network which took a couple extra
steps. Follow the instructions outlined here. The one thing we discovered while
doing this that doesn’t seem to be explicitly mentioned in the documentation is
that your policy needs to point at the update_manifest.xml file URL, not the
.crx file URL.

First, a couple pieces of critical information that will make this much easier
on you. You will need to find out the extension ID and the update URL of the
extensions you are trying to install before continuing on. You can find the
extension ID by entering chrome://extensions into your omnibar, then checking
the developer mode box. You will now see the ID under each extension, it will be
a string of 32 characters. Chrome Extensions are stored in ~/Library/Application
Support/Google/Chrome/Default/Extensions and are each in a folder with the
extension ID as the name. Somewhere in that folder is a file called
manifest.json which is where you will find the update URL. Just open it up using
a text editor and find the field called update_url.

Now that you’ve got your extension hosted and you have the ID and update URL,
you need to create a managed preference in the JSS. To do so:

1) Copy the Chrome manifest file out of its default location. It can be found
at: [script]/Applications/Google
Chrome.app/Contents/Resources/com.google.Chrome.manifest/Contents/Resources/com.google.Chrome.manifest[/script]

2) Log into your JSS and go to Managed Preferences, click New. Scroll down to
the bottom of the list in the sidebar and select Custom. This gives you an
option to upload a manifest file. This is the annoying/confusing part because
once you upload that file you will see a bunch of empty lines with a plus icon
button on the right hand side. Each of those lines represents a different key
that you can set (they are alphabetical). Unfortunately, Apple doesn’t want JAMF
to be awesome so they don’t let them list the key that each line controls so you
basically just have to click on them until you find the two that are needed for
this which are: ExtensionInstallForcelist and ExtensionInstallWhitelist.

3) Now that you show ExtensionInstallForcelist and ExtensionInstallWhitelist,
you can add the values. ExtensionInstallForcelist is expecting it in the format
of extensionid;update url and ExtensionInstallWhitelist is just looking for the
extension id.

4) Now just set your scope and let it go. I have noticed that it seems like you
often have to reboot your computer for these settings to take effect and have
been having some other issues but this definitely works and appears to be the
way that Google intends for you to do this.

It’s a little irritating that it’s so difficult and requires a reboot when
installing an extension while browsing is cake.

Below is a listing of links to sites that I found useful while researching this:

http://www.chromium.org/administrators/policy-list-3#ExtensionInstallWhitelist

https://support.google.com/a/answer/187202?hl=en&ref_topic=2936229

https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/external_extensions#preferences
(this one seems like it would be the ideal way to accomplish this but I couldn’t
figure out how to make it work).
