TOPIC: XPDF Unexecutable

XPDF Unexecutable 07 Feb 2012 19:44 #166

Hi,
I'm using Joomla 2.5.1 on a dedicated server running PHP 5.2.17, Apache Server.

I get following error:
*XPDF Binaries File
*Unexecutable
*CHMOD 0755
*Permission XPDF Binaries File: 0644 - Please set it to 0755 for binaries XPDF in LIN

What should I change to 755? I can't find a folder caled LIN.
Thanks

Hi,
the file is libraries/ifile/adapter/helpers/binaries/linux/pdftotext.

The error message is not very clear, we must change :)

Hello Sir,

I have been working through a few problems with iFile and have had success in all except this same error about pdftotext not being executable. I think I'm almost there - any help you can give would be great.

I did chmod 755 on the pdftotext files in all three dirs:

libraries/ifile/adapter/helpers/binaries/linux/
libraries/ifile/adapter/helpers/binaries/linux/bin32
libraries/ifile/adapter/helpers/binaries/linux/bin64

In the "Report check system" you should find the exact path:

Thank you.


Yes, this was the first path I checked - is listed as:

Permission XPDF Binaries File (/usr/bin/pdftotext): 0 - Please set to 0755 for binaries XPDF in LIN

/usr/bin/pdftotext was already set to 755 but I ran chmod ugo+rwx (just to make sure) and there was no change in the above error.

Hello Antonio,

Also, Report Check System has "0" listed as the permission - indicating that it's looking for the pdftotext binary in a different location.

How does JiFile determine the path to the executable?

Thank you.

The more I use this the more I like it but I still can't get PDFs to work.

Would the cron automatic indexing work even if the manual indexing doesn't? Eventually I want to run that anyway.

I'm wondering if this is an apache security issue but I don't see any sign of that. PHP is running in non-safe mode.

I'm working through the "Basic Installation Problems" thread but not finding anything wrong yet.
