To manage
Hello, I'm using Ubuntu 13.04 and I can confirm this problem. I have to
kill the npviewer.bin process so I can reload the page and the pdf can
be seen again. There's no way to kill the acroread process, nothing will
kill it.

Hi, a new acroread release (0.9.4) is available for update, could you give it a
try and tell us if the problem persists?
If you still have this bug please set back the status to new

We are using Firefox 10 ESR on 32Bit Linux and have the same problem.
Unfortunaly we have an old kernel 2.6.23 without
SOCK_NONBLOCK-feature, so I comment the if-clause in the function
accept_connection. Then the acroread_interceptor.c could be compiled -
with the #define
Any way to append the %u switch in your script?

I do not understand the solution/programming, but as an avid user, I owe
many thanks to sjardine, Massimiliano Calandrelli and Claude Krantz.
In build_interceptor.sh I added the -fPIC option to both gcc line like
this:
gcc -fPIC -shared -o acroread_exec_monitor.so acroread_exec_monitor.c

I can confirm that the LD_PRELOAD method does not work in a x86_64
environment (with 64-bit firefox). The acroread_exec_monitor.so does not
preload even if compiled with the -fPIC option. I did not really try to
understand why.
However, as suggested by swt-techie, one can compile
@sjardine:
You probably need to recompile the interceptor as a 32-bit executable.

acroread remains zombie,
hmm it seems to have stopped working. I have put export
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/bin/ acroread_exec_monitor.so in my .bashrc file
but I dont see the interceptor process in sys. monitor. When I use the
run_firefox.sh script, however, it does seem to work properly. Do I also
need to add the other two
ok after quite a few tests, it seems that it works correctly with the
run_firefox script every time.
It doesnt work if I open firefox normally (from launcher icon).
It does work if I open firefox from terminal
This suggests to that the .bashrc file isnt loaded properly. but then if I type
echo
Thanks to David Schulmann for reporting a bug which prevented the interceptor
from terminating with firefox.

The short answer is: yes.
Alternatively, you can insert the (eventually edited) export lines into
the appropriate files, so that the GUI runs with an environment in which
the LD_PRELOAD variable is correctly set.
Clicking on an icon to launch firefox should then have the same effect of
using the

When running run_firefox.sh? I can't tell much from the error alone, yet it
looks like you have an extra dollar somewhere, in spite of the economic
crisis :-)
I mean something like export $LD_PRELOAD, with a spurious dollar sign. If
you still can't solve this problem, send me more info
Do you have to recompile after every kernel upgrade?
I can't seem to have this autoload from my bashrc file, here are the
relevant lines:

What am I missing?

Improvement to avoid interference between the interceptor and the
original acroread program when used standalone.
** Attachment added: workaround by interposition of an interceptor
I can confirm that this workaraund solves the issue - although it'd be
nice if Adobe patched their software.

This is a workaroud I had to write in order to use ubuntu as a kiosk, so it's
not, strictly speaking, a solution.
Antway, it works quite well, so I decided to share it.
** Attachment added: workaround by interposition of an interceptor
Okay, it works!
But, do you mean
# Adobe Acroread Zombie Workaround
export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/bin/acroread_exec_monitor.so
in the .bashrc script? WITHOUT the space between the path (export
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/bin/) and the file?
Also, I get this from running from terminal:
PID=31011
How would I install your workaraund?
Thanks,

This is not a mozilla bug, as far as I can see. It rather appears to be
Adobe's fault. Anyway, I had the same problem and, since I could not
find a solution in the web, I wrote a small workaround program.
You'll find some hint on what's under the hood in the comment at the beginning
of the file
Still broken in 9.4.6. The issue described in the release notes sounds
like a browser freeze, whereas this issue is where acroread exits, but
nspluginwrapper/nppdf.so is still around so it prevents future PDFs from
being viewed.

hi
have same problem on 11.04 32-bit (good old hp nx7010), and 11.04 64-bit (new

date.

I reported this bug in #731966 back in 2011-03-11.
It's not limited to the 64bit version.
I'm using:
i686 2.6.38-8-generic-pae
xubuntu 11.04
firefox 5.0
acroread 9.4.2
All patched up to the latest version this morning.
Still same problem.
It was introduced by acroread 9.4.2, the 9.4.1 version
Unfortunately the only PDF Reader fully compatible with the ISO32000-2008
standard is Acrobat Reader.
This means that the other readers are not an option if you want to open (for
example) documents with special content like digital signatures, forms,
bookmarks, etc.

A lot of the following errors were reported on .xsession-errors log:

I experience this issue also on Maverick 64-bit. I can recover from it
by killing nspluginwrapper.
