Chrome Plugin Development: User:pass@url Not Supported By Google Chrome Anymore?

You are not the only person having this issue. It's ruffled several other people's feathers.

However, given the comments from the Chromium Developers:

The support for embedded auth in URLs was intentionally deprecated.

It looks like it was removed intentionally.
