Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'server' of undefined

I'm trying to leverage SignalR while developing Chrome Extensions. I can run sample successfully but when I try to change the client from webpage to chrome extesion, I got some trouble. I define the connection the same as the sample like below:

var chat = $.connection.myHub;

console.log("start connect");
$.connection.hub.start().done(function () {
  // Call the Send method on the hub. 
  console.log("Test");
  //chat.server.send("extension", "start");
  chat.server.send("succ");
 });

But I always get this error: Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'server' of undefined.

I have already enabled CrossDomain in my server side. Since `chat.server' is invoked, it seems the connection is established successfully. Did I miss adding some files/scripts in my extension folder?

In my case the problem is that C# automatically change the first letter of Hub name and methods to lower case in hub.js. MyHub1 changes to myHub1 and Hello() changed to hello() in client side automatically.

if you have:

public class MyHub1 : Hub
{
    public void Hello()
    {
        
    }
}

in your Hub.

in client side it must be used like this:

var simpleHubProxy = $.connection.myHub1;
$.connection.hub.start().done(function () {
    console.log("Connected.");
    simpleHubProxy.server.hello();
});
