Error in Chrome Agent

We are getting an error with our Chrome agent (Chrome 23) related to being unable to load the WPT extension because of a missing manifest_version element in the JSON config file. Is the solution to simply upgrade to 2.8 (we are on 2.7)? I can type out the full error if that’s helpful, but I’m hoping this is a known/solved issue.

That or you can just grab the latest agent (it’s backward compatible): https://sites.google.com/a/webpagetest.org/docs/private-instances#TOC-Updating-Test-Agents

And yes, it’s a known issue. Chrome 23 changed the requirements for extensions and they need to use an updated definition.

Cool, I upgraded both the agents and WPT today and everything works again! Thanks Pat.
