Chrome won't loads policies


I'm trying to follow this procedure on Chrome's documentation:

http://www.chromium.org/administrators/linux-quick-start

Yet no policy is loaded by chrome. I tried to create the policies/managed and policies/recomended in /opt/google/chrome also but couldn't load the policies.

Is there any special configuration I have to make in order to load Chrome's policies ?

How can I know for sure what is the right place to put the policy file ?

This is part of a WIP trying to solve this question: Chrome Certificate Selection appears multiple times


Solution

  • It should be some cache or wrong parameter problem. As I discovered in Chrome discussion forum here: https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/forum/#!forum/chromium-discuss

    in linux, Chrome and Chromiun have the same dir for policies, which is:

    /etc/opt/chrome/policies/managed

    if you put a valid file there it will load it. Double check the commas and parameters.
