Problem solved.  Solution is to start FoxitReader
2. Click on "Help"
3. Click on "Check for Updates Now"
4. Choose the "FireFox Update" (Add)
5. Install

Windows XP-Pro Up-to-date
SeaMonkey 1.1.14
Foxit Reader 3.0 Build 1301

Foxit Reader is installed as default pdf reader.
Helper application for Navigator is 'open these files using the default
application"

When trying to open a link to a .pdf file in Navigator the error message
 "Foxit Reader OCX.ocx failed to load" is displayed.

Same operation using IE or "IE Tab" works.

Changing helper application to the c:\program files\foxit software\foxit
reader\foxit reader.exe path yields the same results.

Un-installing and re-installing FoxitReader does not help.

Anyone with ideas?

Hello,

It starts to download, but then freezes.  A popup will come up 
with a 'Server Busy' heading. The message says: The application 
cannot be completed because [file name] (application/pdf object)

Then there are two boxes below that can be clicked.  One says 
Switch [which when clicked does nothing] and the other says 
Retry.  If Retry is clicked, it goes away for a few seconds then 
the original popup comes back. There is a Cancel button also, but 
that is grayed out.  I can't close the program after that without 
using the task manager. The task manager shows Foxit as being 
loaded, but if I kill that program I'm still frozen and have to 
kill Seamonkey also.


I tried adding Foxit to the helper applications but that did nothing.


Simply setting Foxit as the default file handler in Windows should 
be enough to automatically create the Helper Application listing in 
SeaMonkey.  FWIW, here are HA screens from my properly operating 
Foxit/SeaMonkey installation.

Have you tried uninstalling Foxit and re-installing it?


Hello,

Vista Home Premium

Foxit Version 3.0 build 1120

Yes, I uninstalled it and downloaded a fresh version and reinstalled
that, but still no joy.


ST


Try this:

In Foxit, Edit - Preferences - Internet:  Try checking "Display PDF in 
browser."


I'm using Win XP and Foxit 3 with the Pro Pack.  It works fine here.  If 
the above doesn't fix it I would email Foxit support.





Hello,

Thank you and the rest for all your replies.

I don't know where it is in vista, but if you were 
using XP, I would tell you to close SM, then click on 
Start, Control Panel, open the Folder Options icon, 
then the File Types tab, browse down the list and 
remove all the entries for pdf.


Then look under the SeaMonkey/plugins directory for 
nppdf32.dll and delete it.


Now, reinstall foxit, and try again with SM. Did this 
work?

Re: Foxit Reader problem

[Roger Fink]

It's a longshot, but in the absence of other suggestions you might want to
try Microsoft's program uninstaller to get rid of any lingering unwanted
Acrobat registry associations or shared files/folders. I haven't used it but
there is a good buzz about it on the web, which is very unusual for anything
Microsoft. You may want to (or need to) reinstall Acrobat first before you
do this -  please read up on what you're getting into if you elect to try it
out.

Hello,

I forgot to add that Foxit load PDF files fine within IE.


Does it work in Firefox too?

What version [of firefox; and seamonkey]?

If no to Firefox, I'd argue it is *definitely* a foxit bug.



Hello,

I don't know about Firefox. I'm using SM 1.1.13


Let me rephrase and redirect... could you please try with firefox?

[which when clicked does nothing] and the other says Retry.  If Retry is
clicked, it goes away for a few seconds then the original popup comes
back. There is a Cancel button also, but that is grayed out.  I can't
close the program after that without using the task manager. The task
manager shows Foxit as being loaded, but if I kill that program I'm
still frozen and have to kill Seamonkey also.

I tried adding Foxit to the helper applications but that did nothing.

Suggestions would be appreciated?

Thanks,

I have Foxit Reader 2.3 installed as the program to use for pdf files.
I have removed Adobe Reader since Foxit suits all my purposes better and
is faster.  No problem on 1.1.14 or previous versions.

Are you sure you configured the helper application preference properly?
 Correct location for Foxit? Correct extension?  Left the 'plug-in
finder service' box unchecked? Closed and then re-opened SM after the
changes?



Hello,

I believe so. I've done and re-done those settings several times.

Hello,

I forgot to add that Foxit load PDF files fine within IE.

ST


is this happening on all sites with PDFs or just one or two?  If a 
couple, then post links



Hello,

It's all sites. I even tried File-Open File and it did the same thing.

It started to load then stopped and the same popup came up.  But, again

it works correctly in ie 7. And, it works if I just use the Foxit Reader

to view a PDF file from one of my folders.

Does it work in Firefox too?

What version [of firefox; and seamonkey]?

If no to Firefox, I'd argue it is *definitely* a foxit bug.



Hello,

I don't know about Firefox.  I'm using SM 1.1.13
