"Google Chrome cannot read and write to its data directory" when flag "--user-data-dir" used
I want to start a new browser window with --disable-web-security --user-data-dir="C:/Chrome dev session"
flags, so I can work with CORS - when I write those flags in shortcut path or run it from the command line everything works fine, new browser window opens with CORS enabled and browser is started as a 'fresh install' due to the --user-data-dir="C:/Chrome dev session"
flag
But when I run it from the webpack, I got a Windows error dialog:
---------------------------
Failed To Create Data Directory
---------------------------
Google Chrome cannot read and write to its data directory:
"C:/Chrome dev session"
here's how it set in webpack.config
plugins: [
new browserPlugin({
openOptions: {
app: ['chrome', '--disable-web-security', '--user-data-dir="C:/Chrome dev session"']
}
})
]
sorry, my bad - works fine once path wrapped with '--user-data-dir=' + path.resolve(path)
