I have Chrome Version 65.0.3325.181 (Official Build) (64-bit) and since upgrading I'm seeing this error on the Extensions panel under HTTPS Everywhere:
"This extension failed to redirect a network request to https://www.googletagservices.com/tag/js/gpt.js because another extension (uBlock Origin) redirected it to chrome-"
What's the right way to resolve this apparent conflict while keeping both installed?

In my case it's:
HTTPS Everywhere
2018.2.26
This extension failed to redirect a network request to https://widgets.outbrain.com/outbrain.js because another extension (uBlock Origin) redirected it to chrome-extension...
This doesn't seem to break anything but I'd like to get rid of this error for the peace of my mind.
Getting this exact same error. I notice it's got the developers attention here: https://github.com/EFForg/https-everywhere/issues/14961?_pjax=%23js-repo-pjax-container

I have the same problem but it started with Chrome Version 64
For me it was: This extension failed to redirect a network request to https://www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js because another extension (uBlock Origin) redirected it to chrome-extension://cjpalhdlnbpafiamejdnhcphjbkeiagm/web..
The warning is at most an annoyance, both extensions still do what they are supposed to do correctly.
As an ordinary user, this is an issue because:
It makes ordinary users (like me) think that security and ad blocking extensions we have been told to use have failed or are not working.
Things that aren't working need to be fixed or if they cant be fixed, removed, because they're giving every indication that they're NOT working.
My response: Surely there's been enough discussion about the 'technical reasons' why it's happening, just FIX the problem already!!
BTW about the URL causing the problem. Every time it happens on my computers it's a DIFFERENT url. It's not just one url.
Same here, this occurs randomly (which one acts first?) starting recently.
u/RubyStarFall u/baal80 This affects all domains filtered by uBlock Origin, or at least quite a few, DNS response time may be a factor here.
I tried getting in contact with Electronic Frontier Foundation about it. Still no response or heard of a solution to this error.
yep annoying me too
