Console.log messages not showing up in Chrome's javascript console?

Question

I am logging using the jQuery.log plugin (which logs to console.log if available) and I am not seeing any of the logging messages appear in the Chrome JavaScript console.

Logging works on Firebug's console under Firefox, but I did have to explicitly enable the Firebug JavaScript console. Have a missed some option somewhere under Chrome?

Edit:
The only thing being logged to the console is

Uncaught Syntax error, unrecognized expression: |button

I assume that the Chrome console is suppose to log statements even after errors like the one above, but there may be some kind of issue with Chrome here, see http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=29062. I am using Chrome 5.0.375 under Linux and that bug is listed as a Windows XP, Chrome 4.0 issue, it could still apply.

Answer 1

I've just had the same problem and found this question when trying to find an answer.

What fixed this for me was disabling firebug lite in chrome. It was swallowing all console messages.

Answer 2

Make sure you have the console showing and that it is showing "All".

The cursor is on the button to hide/show the console.

Update: In newer versions of Chrome, you need to click the filter icon, then make sure "All" is selected.
