AUCTeX already has you covered. If you have a recent version (>= 11.88, but I strongly recommend always using the latest ELPA version) you can use C-c C-a to compile the document (it'll run all the needed command to completely build it) and automatically open the viewer. In addition, if you set `TeX-error-overview-open-after-TeX-run' to t, the error overview will be presented to you. You can either customize the variable with M-x customize-variable RET TeX-error-overview-open-after-TeX-run RET and toggle to "on", or add the following line to your init file: (setq TeX-error-overview-open-after-TeX-run t) C-c C-a is basically meant to replace your C-c C-c workflow, unless you want to run just once a specific command.
