Status: Unconfirmed Owner: ---- Labels: Type-Bug Pri-2 OS-All Area-Misc New issue 9409 by Carolyn.Blue: Application shortcut error when --user-data-dir command flag is used. http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=9409
Chrome Version : 2.0.171.0 (Official Build 12323) URLs (if applicable) : Other browsers tested: N/A What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Start up Chrome/Chromium in a new user profile via the --user-data-dir command flag. 2. Create an application shortcut for a web service (eg. Gmail). 3. Open the newly created application shortcut. What is the expected result? The newly created shortcut should open the web application in Chrome's application window. What happens instead? The resulting shortcut opens up a Chrome window with multiple tabs filled with erroneous URLs. Additional details: The problem seems to be with the target properties of the application shortcut that was created. When I checked, I saw the following line in the target properties of the created application shortcut: "C:\Documents and Settings\User\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --user-data-dir=C:\Documents and Settings\User\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\User Data\New_Profile--app=https://mail.google.com/mail I was able to fix the issue by editing the target properties to: "C:\Documents and Settings\User\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" -- app=https://mail.google.com/mail Note that only the --user-data-dir command flag causes the issue, other command flags don't seem to affect the application shortcuts at all.
