Protractor error message “unsupported command-line flag” in Chrome?

Question

I\'m a new user to Protractor, and I encountered this error running my tests using Chrome (error displays beneath the address bar in the launched browser):

Answer 1

This error also happened for me when I tried to run "npm run protractor" on step 3 of the Angular tutorial at https://docs.angularjs.org/tutorial/step_03

I'm running Chrome Version 35.0.1916.153 on a MacBook Pro.

@scheffield - thanks, your solution worked for me.

(Also it may not be obvious on that tutorial step 3, but as in previous steps, you still have to start your web server by opening a new terminal window in the directory where you downloaded the tutorial and issuing "npm start". Then in a separate terminal window you execute "npm run protractor"). With the protractor config tweak the error went away.
