AcroRd32 Runtime Error

AcroRd32 Runtime Error

[Wolfgang Werners-Lucchini]

Hallo,

I have updated my context after a very long time.
The first test run does not work because an initally dde attempt to 
acroread.

I got the following errormessage:

    Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library

    Runtime Error!
    Program: C:\Programme\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe

    This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an  
unusual  way.
    Please contact the application's support team for more 
information.

I have Acrobat Reader Version 9.4.6. This is working ok with pdf 
files and this has worked ok with context prior to the update.

What can I do to solve the problem?

Wolfgang

I only have 10 and there it works ok. Ideally the pdfopen/close programs 
should be clever enough to figure out what acrobat they deal with. If 
needed I can introduce (next weekend or so) a 'open pdf' and 'close pdf' 
in the configuration file so that one can tweak it.

if I give the command: context --autopdf a.tex

I get the runtime error and after the context run

mtx-context     | pdfview methods: acrobat default okular, current 
method: acrobat (directives_pdfview_method)Cannot contact a server.

pdfopen --ax --file a.pdf
pdfopen --rx --file a.pdf
pdfopen --file a.pdf

works ok

pdfclose --ax --file a.pdf
pdfclose --rx --file a.pdf
pdfclose --file a.pdf

works ok too, if not following a pdfopen, otherwise I get:

Cannot execute command "[DocClose("%s")]" (error 16393)

Shouldn't be the first two variants for acrobat (resp. reader) 10?
I wonder why they are working. I have the reader 9.4.6 and no acrobat 
at all.

see l-pdfview.lua ... the clal on windows is: pdfopen --ax --file

anyhow, unfortunately the pdfopen/close programs are not consistent with 
respect to dealing with commandline options on different platforms (and 
also not downward compatible) which in fact renders them somewhat 
useless (it woudl be nice if someone would normalize them)

I have the following questions:

The executable pdfdde, resp. their incarnations pdfopen and pdfclose 
know an option --rx. Is this necessary to use acrobat reader 10?

pdfdde --help outputs:

Beware: only documents opened by `pdfopen' can be closed
by `pdfclose'.

But if I open my compiled file manually (not by pdfopen), --autopdf 
works ok. It closes the reader and opens him with the new compiled 
file and so on. So, an initally open with pdfopen does not work!

How is pdfopen/close working? Can someone explain?

pdfdde seems to be based on

Is there any difference (not related to Reader 10)?


I do not understand at all what has happend. 10 Minutes before my 
context-update, all was working ok. There must be a little 
difference.
