|
As user I cannot open a pdf file using KGhostView or ghostview. I can as root but that, well it sucks. Here is the error I get from ghostview:
| Code: | Error: /ioerror in --setfileposition--
Operand stack:
--nostringval-- --nostringval-- 0
Execution stack:
%interp_exit .runexec2 --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- 2 %stopped_push --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- false 1 %stopped_push 1 3 %oparray_pop --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval--
Dictionary stack:
--dict:1047/1123(ro)(G)-- --dict:0/20(G)-- --dict:72/200(L)-- --dict:72/200(L)-- --dict:97/127(ro)(G)-- --dict:229/230(ro)(G)-- --dict:7/15(L)--
Current allocation mode is local |
I don't know how to read that but there it is none the less. One of the pdf's is from a backup i did before reinstalling gentoo and the othere is brand new. User has full access rights to the files so that isn't the problem. Any help/ideas would be great. Thanks. |

Does an "strace -eopen" on ghostview show any permission violations? Some fonts that couldn't be read or something?

I'm getting the same error when trying to open a pdf file with ghostview.
strace shows the following
| Code: |

then i select file open and select top20.pdf and get the following
| Code: |
open("/dev/null", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_DIRECTORY) = -1 ENOTDIR (Not a directory)
open(".", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE|O_DIRECTORY) = 4
open(".", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE|O_DIRECTORY) = 4
open(".", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE|O_DIRECTORY) = 4
open("top20.pdf", O_RDONLY) = 4
open("/etc/localtime", O_RDONLY) = 5
open("top20.pdf", O_RDONLY) = 5
--- SIGCHLD (Child exited) ---
|
then an "information" window pops up and i get the original error message posted on the first post.
i read something interested at http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/ghostview/
| Quote: |
GV is a version of Ghostview with an improved user interface and the ability to display PDF files.
|
this leads me to believe that my system is acting correctly... you can't view pdf with ghostview... i emerged gv and ggv and they both work....
BUT, why would konqueror want to default to ghostview for pdf files if it doesn't work? I have to right click on the pdf file and select "other" to select gv and then select "remember...". Even then, the default when clicking is to use ghostview, how can i change it so that it defaults to gv instead of having to right click every time and select gv manually.
thanks.
