CEP not working without updating hostscript.jsx

[ajabon grinsmith]

Hi there, 

I created a CEP extension for Illustrator and signed and zxp file as it worked fine in debug mode.
I disabled debug mode, installed zxp and checked the operation again.
This does not work.

I had the impression that the process in hostscript.jsx was not being executed, so I added an alert statement in hostscript.jsx in the installed extension and watched the behavior.
This time it worked fine.

I then removed the alert statement and saved it. In other words, I reverted to the syntax before the change. It still works fine.

What could be the possible cause?

I am confused by the title (not working) and the end of your post where you say that after the alert removal, it's working fine. In the case, where suddenly everything works, I can't tell but if you are still in trouble (not working without alert), let us know.
