[Bug 235946] Re: No Appropriate Viewer Error in Hardy 64
I have just encountered this problem.

Okay, I was able to solve this with: $ sudo apt-get purge ia32-libs $ sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree Can you try this on your Hardy/intrepid systems and see if this solves the problem for you? :-Dustin ** Changed in: nspluginwrapper (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Low ** Changed in: nspluginwrapper (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Incomplete -- No Appropriate Viewer Error in Hardy 64 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/235946 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have th-e same problem that klnusbaum reports, on Hardy AMD64. I tried to install the backports version of flashplugin-nonfree (10.0.1.218+10.0.0.525ubuntu1~hardy1+really9.0.124.0ubuntu2), but I get the no appropriate viewer after the installation. -- No Appropriate Viewer Error in Hardy 64 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/235946 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

My flash was working just fine up until a few days ago. Then firefox started running extremely slow. It took 20 seconds to load any page that had flash in it. I ran firefox from the terminal and noticed it was flash that was segfaulting. I uninstalled the flashplugin-nonfree package and when I tried to install it again I got the same error message.

I am also running into this issue on Kubuntu Hardy x86_64 when installing flashplugin-nonfree, although I see one extra error line: Flash Plugin installed. *** NSPlugin Viewer *** preloader not found nspluginwrapper: no appropriate viewer found for /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree/libflashplayer.so The same error is reproducible when running 'nspluginwrapper -i' manually. nspluginwrapper version: 0.9.91.6-1ubuntu1 It looks like the 'no appropriate viewer' error is printed after a non- ok status is returned from 'detect_plugin_viewer' in nspluginwrapper's npw-config.c. If I had to guess, I would say in my case the viewer is trying to run but encounters some kind of error ('preloader not found'), and in stephenb's case, the viewer is either not found or has some different kind of error (one that doesn't print out any error messages).
