问题
I have a google chrome extension that crashes after you install it from the webstore. When installed from a local copy the extension does not crash. The crash happens when you click the tool bar icon that is added once it has been installed. The icon is supposed to load a table with URLs. Once restarted all you get is the option to recover tabs. I was hoping someone could help identify the issue of the crash or tell me how to access a crash report to see what is causing the problem.
The extension is located here: Chrome Store App
Any help or direction will be very appreciated. Thank you

I've looked into your issue, and there are two issues here:
- Your extension gets disabled, "This extension may have been corrupted."
- Chrome crashes.
The latter is caused by a bug that has been fixed in Chrome 40, so I'll only focus on the first issue.
The first issue is caused by Content Verification, an (experimental) security feature in Chrome that ensures the integrity of extensions from the Chrome web store, by disabling extensions that have become corrupted crbug.com/369895. Corruption is detected by verifying the checksum of a file whenever an extension file is accessed by Chrome (for files referenced in the manifest file: at install-time; for other (embedded) files: when the file is loaded).
Unfortunately, there are some bugs in the implementation that causes extensions to be disabled in the following circumstances as well:
crbug.com/439464 - The spelling of a filename in does not match the spelling of the path. On Windows and some Mac systems, the filesystem is case-sensitive, so during development, you may not notice that the spelling of the filename is incorrect. Content verification is case-sensitive, so it will treat "icon.png" different from (uppercase) "Icon.png".
(This discrepancy in checks is unfortunate, but a good thing: if you use an incorrect spelling in the icons field, then the extension would not load on case-sensitive filesystems such as those commonly used on Linux.)crbug.com/444085 - The paths are not resolved into a canonical form. When you use two "//" instead of "/", then Chrome will find the file, but not its corresponding checksum and disable the extension. To fix this, change "path//to/file" to "path/to/file". Fixing static paths (e.g. in HTML and CSS files) is relatively easy, but if you construct the paths dynamically, then finding the culprit becomes much harder.
To find out why your extension gets disabled, follow the instructions at crbug.com/444085#c25.

The problem was related to a broken url in one of the css files. By disabling all scripts and css we were able to find the problem.
