Bug 299282

This could be problem with Okular.

Does the problem only occur with one specific LaTeX/PDF file? If so, would it be possible for you to attach that file here?

It occurs with any tex file even a minimal one.

Hello,

I have EXACTLY the same bug ! When I open Kile by "./run.sh" I get this message error : "Could not open /home/inf0phile/kile-livepreview/.kde/share/apps/kile/livepreview/preview-ONaCzE//essai.pdf" with a minimal tex file "essai.tex" :

\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\begin{document}
\section*{Notes for My Paper}
Example
\end{document}

But the "essai.pdf" is correctly created and I can visualize it manually with okular ! And once this message error appeared, if I click somewhere Kile is crashing ! I have the same backtrace :

Application: Kile (kile), signal: Aborted

OK I fixed the bug. I had to install the library poppler ! BEFORE installing okular and kile as describe here (http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/kile/index.php?title=Live_Preview)

Here is the way I found the solution :

* The backtrace shows that the error occurs in the file documents.cpp in function Okular::DocumentPrivate::openDocumentInternal, and it is raised by the line 904 : 

Q_ASSERT_X( m_generator, "Document::load()", "null generator?!" );"

What means that the pointer m_generator is NULL !

* The generator is given by the function DocumentPrivate::loadGeneratorLibrary, and more precisily by this line : 

Generator * generator = factory->create< Okular::Generator >( service->pluginKeyword(), 0 ); 

I put a "cout" to display the variable service->pluginKeyword(), which was empty ! So a plugin was missing. In order to know which one is missing, I printed the variable service->name(), I understood it is about the plugin "Poppler". Indeed I noticed the folder "poppler" didn't appear in the folder "generators" of build_okular while it was in the folder "generators" of the sources ! It seems that Poppler has not been installed, and indeed when I checked the "Makefile" (generated by cmake) I noticed that there was no target for the librairy "Poppler". 

* I have installed "Poppler" (as it was actually recommended here : http://okular.kde.org/download.php ) downloading the latest version here : http://poppler.freedesktop.org/

* I try again to install okular and kile : http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/kile/index.php?title=Live_Preview

I noticed during the cmake (in the debug mode) that Poppler was sucessfully founded, and during the installation (make install -j 2) that the okularGenerator_poppler.so was treated too!

* I launched ./run.sh (which contains now the lines export for Poppler as explained here http://okular.kde.org/download.php ) and it works !!!
