Hello , It seems that i have solved this problem.
the reason why can't save the png because the nsIWebBrowserPersist require 7 
parameters on some xulrunner. 

so,correct it is easy :
find 264 line in svgRasterizer.js , change the following line
persist.saveURI(uri, null, null, null, null, localFile); 
to 
persist.saveURI(uri, null, null, null, null, localFile , null );

restart pencil , it works!

  /usr/lib/xulrunner/xulrunner --app /usr/share/pencil/application.ini -purgecaches

This suggest doesn't work for me either.
I tried the purge, but maybe there is something wrong...
"Command not found"

:(

Hi! I had the same the issue after upgrading my archlinux system. 

First I was not able to open evolus-pencil because xulrunner-bin was not found. 
xulrunner-bin belongs to the version 14.*. So, I changed the execution of that 
file to the newest version of it wich is located in 
/usr/lib/xulrunner-devel-20.0/bin/xulrunner --app "$APP_INI", in 
/usr/lib/evolus-pencil-svn/evolus-pencil.sh.

Second issue arises after this fix, when Gecko attempts to load that version of 
xulrunner, so I changed to MaxVersion=20.* in 
/usr/lib/evolus-pencil-svn/app/application.ini.

At this point evolus-pencil is running fine.

Finally when I attempted to export to any different format, evolus-pencil fails 
as this thread reports the issue.
It was fixed thank's to the suggestion #4.

find 264 line in svgRasterizer.js , change the following line
persist.saveURI(uri, null, null, null, null, localFile); 
to 
persist.saveURI(uri, null, null, null, null, localFile , null );

Thank's :)

This bug has been around forever. It's basically a critical defect, there's not 
much point in having a diagram you can't export. Any progress?

Also, FYI the svgRasterizer.js fix does not work for me on Ubuntu 13.04; 
otherwise all the symptoms are as reported.

Experiencing this problem too, for several months. No error message.

Here's my environment:
* pencil 2.0.4 (distribution package) 
* Fedora release 19
* Linux 3.10.4-300.fc19.x86_64
* Mozilla XULRunner 23.0 - 20130805131520
* Firefox 23

Everything is working well on windows.

Fix suggested on comment 
http://code.google.com/p/evoluspencil/issues/detail?id=526#c6 did not work.

Kind regards

SVG export is working well too.

For those with the "Command not found" problem you can do:
/usr/bin/firefox --app "/usr/share/pencil/application.ini" -purgecaches
instead.

That and change line 264 line in 
/usr/share/pencil/content/pencil/common/svgRasterizer.js from
persist.saveURI(uri, null, null, null, null, localFile); 
to 
persist.saveURI(uri, null, null, null, null, localFile , null );
did the trick for me.

I use Ubuntu 12.04 and I'm using pencil v2.0.3.

This is working over at https://github.com/prikhi/pencil

There's no packaged builds yet though - look for those on the Releases page 
once v2.0.8 hits.
