Adobe reader browser plug
Hi!
I´ve got one stupid question, in the readme text of the adobereader´s install it´s written: :newbie: Quote:
when i start adobe (./acroread) the error message appears - ¨there was an error loading the plug-in ¨PPKLite.api.¨ the plug-in failed to initialize¨ is it somehow connected to that PATH environment??? |
Code:
echo $PATH setting the path you can do Code:
PATH="$PATH:/<acrobat_install_dir> (wherever it is) It's best to put that into your .bash_profile so it's run at every login. |
thank you, i´ll do it exactly as you say

About the PPKLite.api error message --
That is a widely reported problem with Acrobat reader in Linux. All I know is that the plugin has something do to with "pictures and digital signatures" and that it depends on some library called OpenLDAP. (That's what Googling it told me anyway.) The quick and dirty solution to the error message is just to delete PPKLite.api (or better rename it to something like PPKLite.old). That's what I did and I have never noticed any lost functionality with acrobat reader. And there is no more error message :) -geo |
adobe reader installed with rpm under FC5 doesn't start
and what a mess: is it installed or not?
landon (root) ~/AdobeReader [1007]>rpm -iv AdobeReader_enu-7.0.5-1.i386.rpm Preparing packages for installation... package AdobeReader_enu-7.0.5-1 is already installed landon (root) ~/AdobeReader [1008]>rpm -ev AdobeReader_enu-7.0.5-1.i386.rpm error: package AdobeReader_enu-7.0.5-1.i386.rpm is not installed landon (root) ~/AdobeReader [1009]>rpm -Uv AdobeReader_enu-7.0.5-1.i386.rpm Preparing packages for installation... package AdobeReader_enu-7.0.5-1 is already installed 2 Icons appear under KDE popup->office |
Another option to resolve the ppklite error would be to install openldap-client package. It worked for me.
|
the error was mine
rpm -ev AdobeReader_enu-7.0.5-1.i386.rpm
when deleting/removing, only rpm -ev AdobeReader_enu is necessary |
