Edge custom extension not installing

Hi,

We host a custom extension internally that we have been deploying using the ExtensionInstallForcelist / ExtensionInstallSources. It has been installing and updating until recently, however it seems to have stopped working.

 

In the debug logs I can see the following:

Forced extension <ExtensionID> failed to install with data=failure_reason: 16; install_stage: 2; downloading_stage: 9; downloading_cache_status: 2; manifest_invalid_error: 3

 

The manifest file looks correct and the GPOs are reported as OK in edge://policy.  Are the above error codes documented, so that we can narrow down what the toot cause may be?

 

Thanks,

  • JBrunsden Hello - Do you know around when this stopped working?  Was it near to a Microsoft Edge version update?  Thanks!

      Hi Kelly_Y,

      Hard to say to be honest, I couldn't pinpoint to an exact release but the extension has not updated correctly from a release in the months of Dec / Jan. I know that I received an update to the extension that we released on Dec 7th so it was from that date onwards that subsequent updates have not updated correctly. Thanks

        JBrunsden Thanks for the information!  I've reached out to the extension team and will follow up once I hear back from them.
