QPDFVIEW: Cannot load PDF plug-in

[Leo123]

Trying to open a pdf-file I get a window: Critical; Could not load PDF plug-in[[BR]]

Qpdfview 0.4.3 GA

PMDLL.EXE tells me that all required dll's can be loaded

eCS 2.2 beta with everything installed as per install.os2

[Silvan Scherrer]

there must be at least one dll, which can't be loaded. which i don't know. you can try to redirect the output of sttout and stderr. eventually this leads to something.

[Leo123]

I am not a programmer but I try to help you improve the program.
I don't know how I can try to redirect the output of sttout and stderr.
There are no files with those names to be found.

Can you give me a clue what to do to help?

[Silvan Scherrer]

start qpdfview from cmd line with:
qpdfview >out.txt , then open a pdf file and close the app again.
qpdfview 2>out2.txt , then open a pdf file and close the app again.
see if one of the files contains some info.

[Leo123]

Replying to diver:

start qpdfview from cmd line with:
qpdfview >out.txt , then open a pdf file and close the app again.

Did that: out.txt 0 bytes

qpdfview 2>out2.txt , then open a pdf file and close the app again.

Did that: out2.txt 78 bytes:
Could not load plug-in: "qpdfpdf.dll" "The shared library was not found."

see if one of the files contains some info.

Why can the program qpdfview.exe not find qpdfpdf.dll? They are in the same directory.

[Silvan Scherrer]

please show me your libpath of config.sys. and tell me where you installed the additional dll as mentioned in the install.os2. as there must be a conflict of some dll's somewhere. and no it's not qpdfview.dll which is not found, but a dll needed by qpdfview.dll can't be loaded.

On eCS 2.2 beta

kLIBC dlls, GCC4Core dlls, XSysTray.dll, z.dll, jpeg.dll, djvu.dll, freetyp2.dll and fntcfg2.dll are all installed in w:\ecs\dll, some also in w:\usr\lib.

QPDFview is installed in W:\programs\qpdf

[Silvan Scherrer]

please try qpdfview-0_4_3-ga.zip from ​ftp://ftp.netlabs.org/pub/qtapps/temp
this version has one debug more.
and use qpdfview 2>out.txt to get the message

[Silvan Scherrer]

please attach %HOME%/.config/Trolltech.ini

Success[[BR]]

qpdfview-0_4_3-ga.zip with date 17-06-2013 does the trick! There are no more errors.
Is it the qpdfps.dll which was not in the previous version?

I also attach trolltech.ini

[Silvan Scherrer]

the reason was ​http://svn.netlabs.org/qt4/ticket/289[[BR]] and because i rebuilt the plugins they got reloaded in the trolltec.ini file.
