Fatal error ignored #121

Closed shiblon closed 8 years ago

shiblon commented 8 years ago

Originally reported on Google Code with ID 108

This is a really simple problem.  If I run the makefile, it completes without error,
but if I run pdflatex by hand, it gives the following error:

!pdfTeX error: pdflatex (file rbfruntime.pdf): cannot find image file
 ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced!

How are you generating the rbfruntime.pdf file?  When the makefile succeeds, does it
create that file?

I'm going to need a bit more information to debug this, like how you are trying to
include the image (e.g., using graphicx and includegraphics?) and what your log files
look like.

As far as including it goes, I think issue 113 should set it straight.  I opened this
as a separate bug because I thought it was a little odd that a "!pdfTeX error" line
and a "Fatal error eoccurred, no output PDF file produced!" line were being ignored.

That is definitely odd.  Do you have a log file that I can look at (from when it was
silently failing)?

Here you go--I'm attaching a log file from the latest version of the makefile.  I hope
it helps.

On a related note, if a graphics file is missing, the make aborts with a "No rule to
make target".  It would be convenient if it would build with an error instead, but
if that's hard to do then forget I mentioned it.

It's supposed to emit an error in this case.  I'm surprised it isn't.  This is going
to be tough for me to reproduce, so if you can do it minimally without giving away
your work, that would help.

Fatal error is now getting emitted.

I don't know about the other case, but it smells like an unclean build between makefile
versions.  Feel free to reopen if not.
