[Bug 623719] New: Previewing Latex equations in emacs using the auctex package does not work.
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=623719 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=623719#c0 Summary: Previewing Latex equations in emacs using the auctex package does not work. Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.3 Version: Final Platform: All OS/Version: openSUSE 11.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Other AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: randyoconnor@mailinator.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- Created an attachment (id=377016) --> (http://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=377016) The test.tex file from "Steps to Reproduce" User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-GB; rv:1.9.2.6) Gecko/20100626 SUSE/3.6.6-1.2 Firefox/3.6.6 This happened on three installations on two different PCs. Two upgrades from 11.2 to 11.3 and one fresh install of 11.3. With emacs and auctex installed, the previewing of Latex equations in emacs does not work. There appears a red Stop-like sign. Clicking on the sign with the middle mouse button shows the error message. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install emacs and auctex with Yast. 2. Crate a file test.tex containing: \documentclass{article} \begin{document} \begin{equation} E=m c^2 \end{equation} \end{document} 3. From the menu select Preview -> Generate preview for document. Actual Results: Red Sign appears but no preview image of the equation. Expected Results: It should have created a preview image of the equation. That is, instead of the code for the equation there should appear the equation as in the final latex document (pdf,dvi). This worked perfectly in 11.2. It appeared as soon as I upgraded/freshly installed 11.3. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Neither before nor after reproducing the bug. For me the previews always worked under 11.2, so I never bothered looking at any preview latex output really. I am sorry my lisp skills are arbitrarily close to zero. I still have an 11.2 box at work. Tomorrow I'll post the preview latex output, if you would like to compare.

If I switch preview-image-type from "png" to "dvipng" previewing works flawlessly unless the check - box "Command" -> "TeXing Options" -> "Generate PDF" is activated. If it is activated, preview does not work, if it is inactive (you generate dvi and no pdf) preview is working on 11.3, given dvipng has been chosen as recommended. On 11.0, I keep "png" rather than "dvipng" for the preview-image-type and both variants - with and without active "Generate PDF" checkbox - do work flawlessly.

So, here's _exactly_ what I do to make things reproducible: my example: \documentclass[12pt]{article} \begin{document} \begin{equation} y=\sqrt{x+\sqrt{\pi}} \end{equation} \end{document} 1.) move old version of preview.el and preview.elc in /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/auctex to "save" locations 2.) move preview.el from #382487 into /usr/share/emacs/site-lip/auctex 3.) adapt file permissions / root.root / 0644 4.) start emacs as root, load preview.el, say byte-compile and have a recent preview.elc (verified) 5.) start emacs with: emacs -Q -l auctex -l preview-latex 6.) load sample above (from now on referenced to as "test.tex") 7.) say "preview" "document" -> the equation shows. This is independent of the setting of preview image type (whether it is "png" or "dvipng" makes no difference with the new preview.el) 8.) activate pdf mode by clicking the apropriate check-box "Command" "TeXing Options" "PDF-mode" 9.) remove all previews and try to restart -> in vain, only the one-way-road signs will show. 10.) revert the PDF-mode setting and try again: everything works fine as expected, the previews show. So, I have one document, emacs is loading nothgin but preview-latex and auctex (no further customizations), however, in PDF-mode previewing does not work. The same procedure does work flawlessly on openSUSE 11.0, tested several times. This is definitively an issue with openSUSE 11.3, but I cannot tell to what this bug is related because I have no information but the logs from preview-latex.

So, I do not know what ghostscript version you have been testing on, but rebuilding with SEARCH_HERE_FIRST=1 (ghostscript-library-8.70-15 from the update - source tree of the distribution) fixes my issues. Reinstalling the distributed version re-causes the issues, I did that several times. And, to answer your question: apart from the fact that I am using preview-latex from the new repository (i.e. preview-latex 11.86) I haven't changed anything. To reproduce the issue, I stepped through each step in #20 except the update of preview.el. This is a ghostscript in combination with preview-latex issue and it shows reproducibly for other people than me, too. I have been asking on the dante mailing list and received a reply reproducing my problem precisely with openSUSE 11.3. Hope this clarifies things. Thank you for looking into this, Dieter By the way, this is what I have installed "regularly" off the update-repository: ghostscript-x11-8.70-15.1.1.i586 ghostscript-fonts-std-8.70-15.1.1.i586 ghostscript-library-8.70-15.1.1.i586 ghostscript-fonts-other-8.70-15.1.1.i586 libgimpprint-4.2.7-15.1.1.i586 -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I did this only to verify, not to live with :-) By the way: the file <FILENAME>.prv/<TMPNAM>/preview.dsc is generated, but cannot be previewed (using gs), what should be possible. As a consequence (?), pr1-1.png is not generated, too. If I modify /usr/bin/pdf2dsc in such a way, that the local path is inserted, the file preview.dsc _can_ be previewed with gs, but the png still is not created. (changed the last line of pdf2dsc to "-sPDFname="`pwd`/$pdffile" -sDSCname="$dscfile" pdf2dsc.ps -c quit") These are my current findings - perhaps it helps - but probably not. Will try further tonight.

As a matter of fact I can tell now that any i586 installation of either 11.1 or 11.3 behaves similarly (for me). And the root cause stems from the postscript code that is introduced behind the "-c" sequence by auctex (around line 1075 in preview.el) The problem there stems from the fact that read permission is assigned to preview.dsc but _not_ to the original file (in my case test.pdf). I attach a patch that works for test.pdf because I do not know within which variable the original filename ("test") is kept within preview.el. Given this is applied, preview works for me - maybe you find the time to take a look.

That means I know 3 people suffering from the same problem (including me), running (here) three different computers with 11.1, 11.2 and 11.3 respectively. This issue is an opensuse issue as the original distribution of auctex does not cope with permissions of reading files. And, as stated above, the way it is handled in the current distribution is not working (for three people and three distributions, at least). Please find a patch attached that fixes the behaviour by adding the appropriate read permission that is mandatory within the postscript commands you added to the gs-call.

Werner, please recheck, I really do not know a single person where auctex would work in pdf - mode since the patched ghostscript from opensuse is more restrictive with regard to file permissions.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=623719 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=623719#c60 --- Comment #60 from Dieter Jurzitza <dieter.jurzitza@t-online.de> 2011-01-26 19:53:19 UTC --- Hi Christian, I rechecked this here on my system and I found the same behaviour initially. But then I executed ESC-X load-library preview after this, the pulldown-menu "preview" appeared and things worked. I guess there is an issue with starting preview mode with the older version of auctex (11.85) as distributed regularly that do not exist in the latest version (11.86). The preview-library is not loaded accordingly - but I do not know why. If the above mentioned command does help, please put a (load "preview.elc") command somewhere into ~/.gnu-emacs-custom then things ought to work. In any case, the preview-pulldown menu should be there if you edit a latex - file Please report your results here! Hope this helps Dieter @Werner: this behaviour is strange, but reproducible (for me!).

Now, see what I did: - because I do not use gnu-emacs from openSUSE-11.3 repositories I thought it might be a good idea to recompile auctex from openSUSE-11.3/update. However, no change here. - then I thought maybe the issue is related to my personal settings in gnu-emacs - and bingo: after copying /etc/skel/.gnu-emacs to my home directory and using this instead of my old .gnu-emacs saved from old times emacs-auctex-11.85-94.3.1.noarch.rpm does work smoothly, even the one from the original openSUSE update repository. Hence: Christian, please make absolutely sure that you're using the .gnu-emacs file from the distribution (/etc/skel/.gnu-emacs) at least for testing. In this case it is simply working as a charm. Recheck twice before reporting issues again. Folks, have a nice weekend, take care Dieter -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I am using the same ghostscript and the more recent emacs, but this should not be the issue. I find one single failure here on my system when playing around: When creating the demo file as you described (#59). And there are no test.pdf, test.aux, test.log, no region something or prv something files hanging around, just everything from scratch. Then I enter emacs and say "preview-buffer" I get an error I cannot recover from. preview-latex is in an strange state. The only way to get "back on track" is to restart emacs (or restart preview I guess if I knew how to do this). However, if I start emacs with the file and start preview not via the preview-buffer command form within the mini-buffer but via the pull down menu everything works as expected. Always, reproducible. Characteristically I am asked whether I would like to Cache the preamble, if this question arises, things seem to work. Nevertheless, the error messages I get -_if_ I get one - differs from the one you get. Can you confirm that preview does not work independently how you try to trigger it? Are you asked for caching the preamble?

I always get asked the question if I want to cache the preamble (when I envoke the preview from the menu, as a window otherwise in the minibuffer). It does not depend wether I start from "scratch" (i.e. no region etc. files) or if I already tried a preview before. I also looked through the files in the folder where I have the test.tex, strangely enough the _region_.pdf got generated well and contains the equation. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
