Same here -- it worked perfectly fine yesterday 10 pm CET. Presumably, problems roots in latest Atom update (to version 1.56.0). Eagerly awaiting the fix of this great package!

[linusjanek]

Does anyone here know of a short term solution, meaning a pdf-Viewer that can update the given pdf upon saving? Currently I'm reopening the given files in Acrobat over and over again but I feel like there has to be a more elegant way...

I can confirm that downgrade from Atom 1.56 to 1.55 hotfixed this issue.

I tried to downgrade atom as you said and the issue disappeared. It seems to be an issue of pdf-view package with latest version of atom.

Does anyone know how to downgrade Atom in Windows?

go to the atom.io, in the "release note" you can find it

[rolshoven]

If you don't want to downgrade atom, you could do the same as me and temporarily open PDFs with the open-unsupported-files package.

[debanikray]

Any idea when a fix will be available. It's already 3 days since the bug was reported.

[MeindertHH]

Downgraded Atom to 1.55.0 (https://github.com/atom/atom/releases/tag/v1.55.0) and will wait updating until fixed.

[chrisv42]

same issue here

[maxgonzalezb]

same issue (Atom 1.56, Windows x64)

[kawano-takahiro]

For the time being, it seems that we need to downgrade it to fix this issue, but does anyone know when they can totally fix this kind of issue?

i have the same issue but my teammate dosen't

[moritzpoll]

Same here. Anything we can do in terms of debugging we can help with? My console stays blank. Even external PDFs cannot be opened anymore for me.

[ghost]

I am experiencing the same issue.

Hello, everyone! Sorry for not responding to this sooner

This package hasn't been changed in a while, so something changed in Atom recently which broke this package. I'm not really sure what that is and probably won't have time to look into it anytime soon due to personal reasons. With that in mind, downgrading Atom seems like a quick fix for folks who just want to continue working. A longer term solution would be for someone else to figure out what exactly changed in Atom that broke this package and then fix things (I'd be happy to review a pull request with a fix). An alternative is that you switch to some other Atom package for viewing PDFs, e.g. https://atom.io/packages/pdfjs-viewer or https://atom.io/packages/pdf-view-plus.

Wish I had better news for you all, but I don't.

[romain-kerdigital]

Thanks for your answer @izuzak

For information pdf-view-plus has the same issue.

[romain-kerdigital]

And same issue with pdfjs-viewer...

This is the error message I see : "Missing PDF file."

[dsosa114]

Same issue. All packages based on PDFjs seem to have this problem.

[lionelmalletpro]

Hello every one, unfortunately, pdf-view-plus( https://atom.io/packages/pdf-view-plus ) doesn't work either, since Atom's last update to version 1.56.0

[MeindertHH]

Thanks @izuzak.

[toadfarmer]

The solution I found was add this

PDFJS.disableWorker = true;

at around line 16 of ~/.atom/packages/pdf-view/lib/pdf-editor-view.js

[linusjanek]

The solution I found was add this

PDFJS.disableWorker = true;

Worked for me also, thanks!

Worked for Windows 10 and macOS 11. Thank you!

[WeilinDeng]

Thanks to @toadfarmer for the fix!

[Tarun-Mahajan]

@toadfarmer Thanks a lot for the fix!

[mfhepp]

It also worked for me; please merge the pull request from https://github.com/izuzak/atom-pdf-view/pull/241

[mjrodgers]

Still having this issue with v 0.73, it displays properly if I generate a latex file and it automatically opens, but gives me a blank pane still if I double click on a pdf file from the tree explorer.

[rithwikjc]

I am also having the issue reported by @mjrodgers When I build latex file, the pdf opens in a new pane as intended. But if I open any pdf from the tree, it is blank.

EDIT: SOLUTION: I was looking through other issues trying to see if there was a solution. This worked. https://github.com/izuzak/atom-pdf-view/issues/239#issuecomment-855255598
