I'm fairly certain this issue is because the code currently assumes you have Chrome Canary for Mac installed and attempts to launch the chrome app in that browser. This is what I've been using to develop, but obviously we should figure out something better so others can contribute more easily. You can change the path here (https://github.com/feross/webtorrent/blob/master/bin/start.js#L5) to your chrome binary to get it working.

See #39 for the answer to your "why" question.

Uhm...
Hi there... 👋
I changed the line you mentioned to var BIN = 'google-chrome'
and this fires up Chrome alright, but it throws an Could not load extension from ''. Manifest file is missing or unreadable.
alert message. I'm not sure where the Manifest
file is, so some clues or pointers for resolving this problem would be helpful. Thanks in advance.

@shyamsalimkumar What OS and OS version are you using? If you give me that info I can debug this.
from webtorrent.
Ubuntu 13.10 32bit... I presume that the Linux support has been added as I noticed #40 was merged, and it seemed to indicate that.

yup can confirm same error as @shyamsalimkumar on windows with chrome 33.0.1750.154 m. But i can load the app via chrome://extensions
then it gave me a error first regarding socket api nt available then i had to change manifest to having sockets property instead of placing it in permissions. Then it worked :) but no idea abt y the cli is not picking up the same manifest.json.. @feross any clue?

Not sure why people are experiencing these errors. I'll investigate.

Same on Arch. I thought at first that --load-and-launch-app
might want the full path, but that wasn't the issue.
