Bug ID: 429608
Summary: Printing, saving, and preview of pdf file fails
Product: okular
Version: 1.9.3
Platform: Ubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: printing
Assignee: okular-devel at kde.org
Reporter: jens.breitenbach.hattersheim at web.de
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
I try to print a pdf file from okular, but nothing happens. When starting
okular from the command line some weird behaviour occurs (did not happen under
Kubuntu 18.04)
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. run konsole and type okular mypdf.pdf
2. select "print preview". You get the following error message printed in
konsole window: notify_add_watch(/tmp/okular_xkGczc.ps) failed: (Permission
denied)
3. select "print" from the menu. konsole output shows error message (translated
from German): /usr/bin/lpr: Error - No access to "/tmp/okular_FfOYzt.ps" -
permission denied
4. When trying to save the opened file the error message appears in a window in
okular, saying the file cannot be saved to /tmp/okular_whatever, even if I
specify a file name in my home directory.
5. listing directory /tmp shows
$ls -l /tmp

The file in question cannot be accessed since it has chmod 000.
OBSERVED RESULT
Cannot print
EXPECTED RESULT
Can print
