"Access Denied" when opening a PDF in a browser

Hi,
I have a problem I can't solve.
I'm creating a intranet website. In this, i want display PDF but the browser reply "Access DenIed".
I stock my PDFs in a network drive where i have the rights on folders and files.
I try to unckeck "Enable protected mode" but no change.
I try to open with another PDF reader (Foxit) and it works, but i want keep Adobe by default reader
for my users.
I have the last version of Abobe Reader XI (11.0.05.3).
Thanks.

Configure Adobe Reader to not use a Web Browser to open PDF documents... (see the Adobe.com for admx files to apply this setting by group policy) (

It seems that Adobe have recently changed the location of that setting in Adobe Reader (at least on 11.0.4). They've now hidden it under Edit > Accessibility > Setup Assistant > Then on page 5 of 5, there's a tick box to toggle 'Display PDF
documents in the Web Browser'.
However, it doesn't work like it used to though, as it won't just open a PDF in Adobe Reader instead of the browser. It will instead ask to disable Enhanced Protected Mode to run acroPDF.dll.
And if you try disabling the Adobe PDF reader add-on in Manage Add-ons to try and force it to open in Reader, then when you visit a PDF link, you just get the same blank page (shown below) with the black crossed out circle in the top left, but without the
message bar at the bottom of the window. The only way to open the PDF is to either turn off Enhanced Protected Mode and allow acroPDF.dll to run or if there's an original link to the PDF, right click and select 'save-as'.
I think it's about time Adobe released an x64 PDF viewer... Or at least there should be an open/save dialogue box in IE.
If you've got Reader 11.0.4 installed, you can try it for yourself with this PDF link:

(The below screenshot is with 'Display PDF documents in the Web Browser' UN-ticked in Adobe Reader settings, so it should open in Reader instead. But it doesn't. And with the Reader add-on disabled you get the same page, but without the

Access denied while opening any PDF the second time / Zugriff verweigert beim zweiten Öffnen eines beliebigen PDF

Reader produces "Access denied" while opening any PDF the second time. A LogOut/LogIn or restart is necessary to open a PDF again successfully. User works with a PC (Win7). The file is located on the desktop in a Windows 2008/2012 AD, user profile on networkshare. The same procedure with a file located on any other networkshare or locally on harddisk works without error. Analysis with processmonitor indicates that the file seems to load and then is cancelled for some unknown reason. The problem is somehow growing, beginning with 1 PC and exists now also in our Citrix environment (2 users). Access rights seem to ok and the same on all tested shares (full Access or Change rights).
Der Reader bringt den Fehler "Zugriff verweigert", wenn man das zweite mal ein PDF öffnen will. Dabei ist der Fehler völlig unabhängig davon, ob man das gleiche oder ein anderes PDF öffnen will. Um wieder erfolgreich ein PDF zu öffnen, ist ein Ab- und Anmelden bzw. ein Neustart des PCs (Win7) nötig. Umgebung ist eine Windows 2008/2012 AD, Profil liegt im Netz. Der Fehler tritt nur bei PDFs auf, die auf dem User-Desktop liegen. Sind die Dateien irgendwo anders im Netz oder lokal auf der Festplatte, kommt der Fehler nicht. Eine Analyse mit dem Prozessmonitor zeigt, dass das Laden des PDFs irgendwann gecancelt wird, warum auch immer. Das Problem scheint sich auch langsam auszuweiten. Es hat mit einem PC begonnen und tritt nun auch in unserer Citrix Umgebung bei bis jetzt 2 Usern auf. Die Berechtigungen scheinen überall ok und gleich zu sein (Volluzgriff oder Ändern).

And how are you spawning the php instances? I don't see that in the daemons array anywhere.
EDIT: It looks like the info in that page is no longer using pre-spawned instances, but lighttpd adaptive-spawn. The documentation has been made inconsistent it looks like.
You will note that with pre-spawned information, the config looks different[1].
You need to do one or the other, not both (eg. choose adaptive-spawn, or pre-spawn..not both).

'access denied' when opening from Office

Hello,
I've experienced this 'access denied' message too. Now I realized that when opening AdobeReader manually all works fine.
But when Reader is closed and is opened by Office after saving as PDF file - it still shows this error message.
There's nothing wrong with the file - when opening manually from inside of Reader.
Is it a problem with commandline execution?
I'm sorry for any problems you got - especially from reading my english...

"Access denied" when opening report on RAS Server

I'm sure I'm doing something wrong, but I've only been able to open a report using the rassdk protocol from the server where my java code is running.    This is fine, but I was hoping for efficiency sake that I could have reports reside on the RAS server itself.
My ras server definitely has a Crystal report called EBTest.rpt in the c:\temp directory. I run this code...
ReportClientDocument rcd = new ReportClientDocument();
rcd.setReportAppServer(ReportConstants.RAS_HOST);
rcd.open("c:\\temp\\EBTest.rpt", OpenReportOptions._openAsReadOnly);
rcd.close();
According to the JavaDoc, this should work, but I get this error ...
Caused by: com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.lib.ReportSDKServerException: Access denied. Please check directory setting for files you can access.---- Error code:-2147467259 Error code name:failed

     at com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.application.ReportClientDocument.a(Unknown Source)
     at com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.application.ClientDocument.open(Unknown Source)
Am I missing something trivial?
Thanks,
Eric

Now that I've got it working, I expected that the RAS-local approach would be much faster than the RAS-remote, but I didn't find that to be the case in a quick test that I did. Is this what you'd expect? Or is there a different part of the ReportClientDocument interaction that would be more efficient.
From what I've seen, the ReportClientDocument construct and open() are one of the expensive aspects of the report rendering.
Enclosed are the results from a test I did:
--PERF--20 iteration test for 'Test local report initialization'
--PERF--WARMED UP in 3359 ms
--PERF--,Iterations          ,Total Time (mS)     ,Avg(ms)/Iteration   ,Transactions/sec
--PERF--,20                  ,35515               ,1775.75             ,0.5631423
--PERF--20 iteration test for 'Test remote report initialization'
--PERF--WARMED UP in 1828 ms
--PERF--,Iterations          ,Total Time (mS)     ,Avg(ms)/Iteration   ,Transactions/sec
--PERF--,20                  ,37109               ,1855.45             ,0.5389528
And here's the bulk of the code that generated those results...
int numIterations = 20;
PerformanceUtils.runPerformanceTest("Test local report initialization", numIterations, new Command(){
     public void execute() {
          try{
               ReportClientDocument rcd = new ReportClientDocument();
               rcd.setReportAppServer(ReportConstants.RAS_HOST);
               rcd.open("D:\\Program Files\\Business Objects\\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\\Samples\\EN\\Reports\\triCalendarPeriod___-___Find___-___Months.rpt", OpenReportOptions._openAsReadOnly);
               rcd.close();
          }catch(Exception e){
               throw new RuntimeException(e);
PerformanceUtils.runPerformanceTest("Test remote report initialization", numIterations, new Command(){
     public void execute() {
          try{
               ReportClientDocument rcd = new ReportClientDocument();
               rcd.setReportAppServer(ReportConstants.RAS_HOST);
               rcd.open("rassdk://./test/data/crystal/triCalendarPeriod___-___Find___-___Months.rpt", OpenReportOptions._openAsReadOnly);
               rcd.close();
          }catch(Exception e){

Access denied when opening project using project professional client application

Hi,
I have some users who are members of 'Team Members for Project Web App'.
They can open projects using the browser just fine.
But, if they try to open it using the menu : Projects Tab > Open > In Microsoft Project,
the project professional client application starts but shows an error : 'you do not have the required permissions to perform the operation'
Is there some restrictions for 'Team Members for Project Web App' with the project professional application?

Indeed team members should not be added to the PM group. But they should not either edit directly the proejct plan. The process is the following:
The PM assignes a resource on a task, either from PWA or MS Project Pro,
The PM publishes the project plan,
The TM goes to the task link in the quick launch menu on the left side,
The TM enters the actual work done on his assignments and submit it to the PM,
The PM goes to the approval center, sees the task updates waiting for approval, approves or rejects the task updates,
The PM opens the project plan, updates the remaining work and publishes again the project the the task updates are taken into account and send to the TM.
See this
reference for Project Server 2010 but still applicable for 2013.
Hope this helps,

Can you remove items from the toolbar when opening a pdf in a browser?

I know you can turn off the toolbar with open parameters, but we would like to only display the zoom controls on the toolbar. Can I do this with an FDF file or some other way?

Hi,
You mentioned that "JavaScript in the PDF can hide toolbar buttons."
According to the Javascript docs for Acrobat 7 the App.HideToolbarButton function only runs at AppInit. Which means that I would have to have the javascript in a file. How can I do that from within the document? Is there another way to to do set this from our web application?

Hi,
If you are able to open the same document earlier,then anonymous access enabled on your doc library then.
If you are facing this problem in first time,then you do not have required permission (may be custom permission level has been set ) on it.

Photoshop cs4 access denied when trying to install from disc in Windows 7 64bit.

Photoshop cs4 access denied when trying to install from disc in Windows 7 64bit. I tried it in
safe mode and it starts to install but get an error there as well.
What do I do?

So when you put the disk in it won't run correctly? When the disk is inserted you should have a window pop up with 2 options. 1 to install and the other to see what is on the disk. Choose to explore or open the disk. Go to the CS4 folder where the photoshop .exe file is (that will run the setup), right click on the .exe file and choose run as Admin and it should start. See if it will install. If not then read below.
I am not sure how far you got in the install before so chances are you will have to run the CS4 cleanup utility. 2 levels to run at but don't use 1 or 2 just type in the number 3.
http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cs4clean.html
You may need to run the windows installer cleanup utility too
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301
Before you try to reinstall the software ensure that adobe reader is not installed. If it is remove it. It has caused issues in the past with vista and CS4 installs.
Also turn off windows Defender and any anti-virus software. You can keep UAC on in Windows 7.
During the CS4 install at 90 percent it will almost stop and may take 5 to 10 mins to finish. This is normal. What a pain huh......
After install is finished, reboot
After reboot, go to the CS4 64 bit or 32 bit icon (depends on 32 or 64 bit Windows 7) in start area, right click on CS4 64 bit (if you have windows 7 64 bit) and choose properties, compatibility tab and then check run as Admin at the bottom area. Hit apply, ok to close out.
Now start CS4 and run the updater.

When opening a PDF in IE 10 with Enhanced Protection Mode it displays "This website wants to run acropdf.dll"

I am running my application which requires JRE on Internet Explorer 10. Since the IE need to run in 64 bit mode, we have enabled the "Enhanced Protection Mode" in Security option of Internet Options in Advanced tab. But my application also opens
up PDF in the browser, when the page with PDF is invoked it displays "The webpage wants to run 'AcroPDF.dll'. If you trust this site, you can disable Enhanced Protection Mode for this site to run the control.(Disable)(Always Ignore)". And on
clicking any option the PDF is not displayed.
We would not be able to disable the Enhanced Protection Mode as the 64 Bit JRE would not be invoked for other part of the application.
Please let me know how to resolve this issue.

Illustrator crashes when opening some PDFs

When opening some PDFs in Illustrator, Illustrator "Quits Unexpectedly"
It only occurs on one out of 15 of our Macs
I am running on all the latest updates both OS and Adobe
It is very intermittent
It only seems to do it across a SMB network share
If the file is copied to the desktop it works fine
If the file is outlined and accessed from the network share it works fine
If the file is moved to another folder on the same network share it seems to work fine
I have repaired all fonts and cleared all font caches
This has recently had a full clean (using adobe's clean script) and re-install of Illustrator because of updating issues, but we have other Macs which have had to go through this also.
I have a crash log also but it is too big to post here
Any ideas before I wipe the lot and start again?

It is not nonsense.
A pdf is supposed to be an end-format, not to be edited. Edits should always be done in the originating application, not in Illustrator. A native AI-file is not the same thing as a pdf. Editing pdfs in Illustrator can be a recipe for disaster and damage of the file-content.
The following is from Dov Isaacs at Adobe in teh Indesign mailinglist at Lassosoft:
"Adobe Illustrator is NOT, repeat NOT, repeat yet again NOT a general
purpose PDF (or EPS) editor. It cannot fully and properly edit PDF
(or EPS) files created any than by "save as" operations from the
equivalent or later version of Adobe Illustrator. Illustrator only
"knows" about PDF constructs that it itself generates. Other PDF
constructs may be modified or deleted without notice. Furthermore,
Illustrator does NOT support mixed color-space PDF files. And finally,
Illustrator does NOT make use of any fonts embedded in a PDF file. If
you "edit" a page of a PDF file in Illustrator, you must have the
same version of the same font on the Illustrator system as you have
on the system that creates the PDF.
We constant hear of problems in prepress due to misuse of Adobe
Illustrator as a PDF fixup program. You use Illustrator at your own
risk for this purpose which is absolutely not supported by
Adobe Systems Incorporated!

I receive "Database access denied" when trying to add component 4543BD

I receive "Database access denied" when trying to add component 4543BD to my schematic. This component was added from a previous version. I'm using Multisim version 12.0.0 Student edition.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi Diarra,
I checked my database and the 4543 is not in the Student Edition. If you opened a schematic that was created in a higher version such as the Educaiton Edition and copied the part to your database, when you place this part you will get the access denied message.
Attached is a schematic with the part, you can open it and build you circuit around it.
