cannot open multiple documents simultaneously

[erdmann]

Lucide 1.5.0:

can only open one PDF. Opening a second one with first one still open leads to error: "cannot find suitable plugin for document" and a zombie lucide.exe will continue to execute in the background which needs to be killed via the C-A-D commander or similar

[Andreas Schnellbacher]

A .TRP file is created in the directory of lucide.exe, when I try to start the already opened (hatch-marked) program object a second time via double click on it.

Lars: please run:

rpm -qa | grep poppler

and paste the results.

[Lewis Rosenthal]

Andreas: If you are seeing the same symptom, please follow the directions I provided Lars. It is possible that a subsequent yum update broke the PDF plugin.

Also, if either of you have any poppler library (popple70.dll, etc.) in LIBPATH, it would hel to know that, as well (pay particular attention to %UNIXROOT%\usr\local\lib).

Trap on trying to open a second .pdf file while Lucide alredy display a .pdf file.

Apologies for the late reply. (I've forgotten that I've to enter my email address per each Trac project to receive notifications.) Here's the output:

[C:\]rpm -qa | grep poppler
poppler-data-0.4.9-1.oc00.noarch
poppler-legacy-65-0.49.0-2.oc00.L.i686
poppler-legacy-70-0.59.0-3.oc00.L.i686
poppler-0.61.1-1.oc00.i686
poppler-legacy-66-0.52.0-1.oc00.L.i686
poppler-qt-0.61.1-1.oc00.i686

The uploaded file aschn-0052_01.TRP was erranously created with 1.40.0, which I tried as well.

No .trp file is created with 1.5.0, but LUCIDE.EXE remains in the process list after closing its window. A message pops up:

Error!
Can't find suitable plugin for specified document!

Both .pdf files can be displayed in Lucide when the app was closed before trying the second one.

Good news: I've just tried multiple ways to open a second .pdf file. Most of these work well: The previously loaded .pdf file is replaced by the the second one.

It's only reproducible if I try to open the second .pdf file via double click (while the association points to the opened Lucide program object):

1. Open the first .pdf file in any way.
2. Double click on a second .pdf file.
