[Bug 571247] Re: acroread remains zombie, so pdfs won't be rendered anymore
I'm still affected by this. My test case is Ubuntu 12.04.2, 32-bit, fully up to date as of this morning. As I write this my version of firefox is 22.0+build2-0ubuntu.12.04.1 and my version of acroread is 9.5.5-1precise1. When I start Firefox and open a PDF in a tab, Firefox spawns a plugin- container for nppdf.so, and that in turn spawns an acroread. If I close the PDF tab and wait a few seconds, acroread exits but is not immediately reaped, so a defunct (zombie) acroread remains. If I try to open another PDF in a tab while the zombie is present, all I get is a black screen. After a longer time the plugin-container exits, taking the acroread zombie with it. After that, I can open a PDF normally again, since a new plugin-container and acroread are created. Disabling the out-of-process plugins feature in Firefox globally (dom.ipc.plugins.enabled=false) seems to function as a workaround, but blacklisting only the nppdf plugin (dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.nppdf.so=false) still sometimes gives me a black screen, even though a plugin-container isn't created. ** Changed in: acroread (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed ** Also affects: firefox (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/571247 Title: acroread remains zombie, so pdfs won't be rendered anymore To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nspluginwrapper/+bug/571247/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 571247] Re: acroread remains zombie, so pdfs won't be rendered anymore
Hi all! I was bitten by this bug too, In our case in a Maverick derived distribution one and using Firefox 4.0.1. It's a kiosk distribution too without a desktop environment (just a Firefox with a custom extension) and this was a critical bug since the kiosk is used for consulting pdfs (among other things). We needed to deploy this patch quickly into the distribution, so I did a (sorry for the dirty 20 minutes) debian package for it. I've just uploaded the source package (lp:~javiube/+junk /acroread-workaround), so you can easily make your own required changes and build it for your distribution. Required lines for .bashrc are not included in the package since we included that into another distribution's package. Hey Christian, I'm not sure about the change you did, but I guees that commenting the if-clause is a bad idea and you'll need either to define SOCK_NONBLOCK by your own (see http://www.kernel.org/doc/man- pages/online/pages/man2/socket.2.html) or to provide an alternative way for doing this check. Hope this helps!

[Bug 571247] Re: acroread remains zombie, so pdfs won't be rendered anymore
We are using Firefox 10 ESR on 32Bit Linux and have the same problem. Unfortunaly we have an old kernel 2.6.23 without "SOCK_NONBLOCK"-feature, so I comment the if-clause in the function "accept_connection". Then the acroread_interceptor.c could be compiled - with the "#define WRAPPER_INCARNATION"-Option. I used the method be renaming the acroread-executable.

I do not understand the solution/programming, but as an avid user, I owe many thanks to sjardine, Massimiliano Calandrelli and Claude Krantz. In "build_interceptor.sh" I added the -fPIC option to both "gcc" line like this: gcc -fPIC -shared -o acroread_exec_monitor.so acroread_exec_monitor.c gcc -fPIC -m32 -Wno-format-security -ggdb -o acroread_interceptor acroread_interceptor.c then followed Claude Krantz's advices regarding copying the files.

[Bug 571247] Re: acroread remains zombie, so pdfs won't be rendered anymore
I can confirm that the LD_PRELOAD method does not work in a x86_64 environment (with 64-bit firefox). The acroread_exec_monitor.so does not preload even if compiled with the -fPIC option. I did not really try to understand why. However, as suggested by swt-techie, one can compile acroread_interceptor with -m32 and use it to replace acroread on-disk as described in the source code header. Steps to follow if you are on a x86_64 system: * change the following line in build_interceptor.sh - gcc -Wno-format-security -ggdb -o acroread_interceptor acroread_interceptor.c + gcc -m32 -Wno-format-security -ggdb -o acroread_interceptor acroread_interceptor.c * run build_interceptor.sh * in /opt/Adobe/Reader9/Reader/intellinux/bin, rename "acroread" to "acroread.original" * copy the compiled "acroread_interceptor" to /opt/Adobe/Reader9/Reader/intellinux/bin and rename it to "acroread" * make sure the new "acroread" is executable for all users This got me rid of this Adobe bug on Oneriric x86_64.

Re: [Bug 571247] Re: acroread remains zombie, so pdfs won't be rendered anymore
The short answer is: yes. Alternatively, you can insert the (eventually edited) "export" lines into the appropriate files, so that the GUI runs with an environment in which the LD_PRELOAD variable is correctly set. Clicking on an icon to launch firefox should then have the same effect of using the sample "run_firefox.sh" script. At the same time, the Acrobat reader icon should work (but only if you replaced the executables with the ones obtained by compilation of the last version of source code; previous versions of my program did not correctly handle the standalone reader). Kernel changes should not affect the workaround code; however, changes in Acrobat Reader's version and/or in the desktop manager you use, could do so.. 2011/12/21 cement_head <571...@bugs.launchpad.net> > Hmmm, do i have to call the script run_firefox.sh each time I start > firefox? > > If so, that's my error. > > -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/571247 Title: acroread remains zombie, so pdfs won't be rendered anymore To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nspluginwrapper/+bug/571247/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Re: [Bug 571247] Re: acroread remains zombie, so pdfs won't be rendered anymore
You have to compile the source files; you can use the script build_interceptor.sh to do so. When done, please move (or copy) the files "acroread_interceptor" and "acroread_exec_monitor.so" in /usr/local/bin. (optionally, you can change this path at will by editing the .c source file and recompiling, I'll asume you're using this one) Once you've done this, you can try if it works for you by executing $ export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/bin/acroread_exec_monitor.so $ firefox (be sure to close all firefox windows first) Open a PDF file, then close that tab, wait >30secs and try again. You should find two acroread processes, the parent one being my interceptor. If it works, you can then install it permanently the way you prefer: I suggest putting the following line: - export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/bin/ acroread_exec_monitor.so - in a file executed at logon (your .bashrc, or a script in /etc/profile.d/ if you can become root). This way, you can automatically keep using the workaround after acrobat upgrades (I don't think they'll fix it soon, since I discovered this bug is around since a while). Finally, I send you the latest version of the program I wrote, because I fixed a missing check and changed the hardcoded path of "/home/senato" into "/usr/local/bin". Feel free to examine and modify it (some knowledge of C will help).

I reported this bug in #731966 back in 2011-03-11. It's not limited to the 64bit version. I'm using: i686 2.6.38-8-generic-pae xubuntu 11.04 firefox 5.0 acroread 9.4.2 All patched up to the latest version this morning. Still same problem.

Unfortunately the only PDF Reader fully compatible with the ISO32000-2008 standard is Acrobat Reader.

Correction the RAM changes do not consistently fix this issue.

[Bug 571247] Re: acroread remains zombie, so pdfs won't be rendered anymore
Here are a couple of really ugly workarounds if like me you have to have embedded PDFs in FireFox. 1 add an application launcher to the panel with the code killall npviewer.bin click on it when acroread freezes up and then refresh your page 2 switch to the 32 bit version of Ubuntu 3 Remove RAM to 3GB or under (this working indicates that nswrapper is not working properly) I know none of these are great options but as this is a closed source project we will have to wait for Adobe to fix acroread and that might be a while. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/571247 Title: acroread remains zombie, so pdfs won't be rendered anymore -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
