Re: cygstart foo.pdf results in 'AcroRd32.exe has generated errors'


Andre,

Whatever your problems are, they're local to your system.

Although I'm usually loathe to make (or accept) this suggestion as a means to correct problems, perhaps you should re-install Acrobat Reader.

By the way, version 5.1 is out, so perhaps you could upgrade while you're at it (if you have not already done so).

Invoking 'acrord32 foo.pdf' directly from a cygwin terminal (rxvt)
causes a Dr. Watson.  Invoking it via 'cmd /k 'c:\Program
Files\Adobe\Acrobat 5.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe' foo.pdf' also causes a
Dr. Watson.
