Web app leaving blank window open after streaming pdf under Adobe X

We are working on upgrading to Adobe 10 for around 200 users.  We have a web based Java app that is used on our local network. We send out a request to send word/excel/pdf docs to a LAN location from a content database and then the app streams it from there to the user.  With pdfs, we have the pdfs open in adobe standard or reader instead of inside the browser. 
When this is done, IE pops open a blank window for the streaming.  With Adobe V9, excel, and word, when the document is done streaming it closes this blank window down.
With Adobe X, it finishes streaming the file, the pdf opens in Adobe, but the blank IE window never closes.  We need to find a fix to this since having 200 users close over 100 blank IE windows a day really isnt an acceptable work around. 
Has anyone run across something similar?
Thank you for your help.

How did you "downgrade" back to Adobe 9??  :-)
Sorry for your troubles-
All computers do eventually crash or develop glitches in the software- or turn out a crappy version like Reader X, so I save all downloads to another hardrive or disk for ease of access for when reinstalling them. Fortuanetly, I found that I had Reader 9 saved somewhere. I searched Adobe's downloads and I couldn't find a single trace of Reader 9 in their archives, of course I could've missed it. Maybe scouring the internet might turn up something.
I uninstalled X and reinstalled 9. Of course, Adobe update then wants to reinstall X, but I dismissed the update and hid the Adobe update icon at the bottom of the screen.
I'm running Vista 64 and the two programs didn't work well together. Matter of fact, since after the update was installed and uninstalled and I went back to Reader 9, Reader 9 has started to crash also- not a s bad as X did but it has it's newly found issues inherited from X- I guess.
I have been getting a lot of 'Adobe Reader has stopped working and has to close' error messages lately.
There are a few other readers out there that work as well if not better like Primo PDF. With Primo, I just didn't like all the advertisments one gets when they make a PDF- same with PDF995, so I use CutePDF's printer driver for making PDF's.I actually print more PDF's then I do reading them myself.
I was hoping that Adobe would've got the message by now and correct their faux pas with an update or a better version like Reader XI, but I guess that they are content with what they put out- gag.
Good luck. Maybe find a friend who has Reader 9 saved in their Downloads folder and move it over to a flash drive and then onto your machine??

  • Firefox 4 sometimes displays a blank window instead of a PDF with Adobe Reader X

    This is with Firefox 4 or 5.
    When I try to display a statement from my bank web site, it opens a blank window and nothing else. This is using Adobe Reader X. I reinstalled the Reader X with no difference.
    I am running Windows XP Pro, SP3.

    I have troubleshooted this issue and have found what I think is a resolution.
    The cause of this issue seems to be Profiles.
    Previously when running firefox 3 I had multiple profiles setup. when deciding to update to firefox 4 I removed these old profiles.
    When installing firefox 4 for some reason it used a "default" named profile, and this caused the problems I described above.
    RESOLUTION:
    Ran firefox.exe -ProfileManager
    created a new profile, it named itself "Default User" I then selected the new default and tested. The window behavior is now acting as it should wothout the above problems.
    I deleted the old profile and now it works, using the new profile.

    Hi,
    Install the v10.6.6 combo update available here. It's ok to do this even though you are already running v10.6.6. The combo includes fixes that were not included in the original update.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1349
    Restart your Mac and try the MAS again.
    You can download apps directly from the MAS once you have it running.
    Considering the TM backup took so long, make sure there's enough space on your Mac startup disk.
    Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. *Make sure you always have a minimum of 15% free disk space.*

  • When I start ver 4 the first time 10 to 15 blank windows open and does not remember pin tabs?

    When I open version 4 the first time, 10 to 15 blank windows open up. it does not remember any pinned tabs or go to my home page.

    Make sure that you not run Firefox in [[Private Browsing]] mode.
    In Private Browsing mode some menu items are disabled (grayed) and some features like visited links and others are disabled and not working.
    You are in Private Browsing mode if you see "Tools > Stop Private Browsing".
    See [[Private Browsing]] and http://kb.mozillazine.org/Issues_related_to_Private_Browsing
    You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
    To see all History settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting '''Firefox will: Use custom settings for history'''
    UnCheck: [[ ] "Automatically start Firefox in a private browsing session"
    Another possibility is that there is a problem with the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
    Delete the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak and any existing files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js .

  • Erec - When an External window opens after click of a button

    We are using an Standard Webdynpro Erec Appln.
    When an External window opens after click of a button the smart form embedded in that windows view is not appearing instead and small X mark (in Red)  is appearing with fully plain background
    It is happening only for my system, others are able to view it properly...
    I have cleared the cache, restarted the system and also re-installed the Adobe Reader too..
    But still the problem persists.. Let me know what can be done in this case...
    Thanks & regards,

    The service that you are trying to use requires integration of adobe with in browser(IE). Check the option [Display PDF in browser |http://lh4.ggpht.com/_E1SpYl0ZbfE/SlI0rfQAxeI/AAAAAAAAAh4/fC9alkf1M78/Adobe_Setting.gif]in Adobe Reader preferences.
    If it still doesn't show the PDF, try to reset the browser setting to Medium and re-open.

    pls. help.
    The pop up error msg. is "Sorry, you don't have access to this page"

    Hi,
    According to your description, after you cleared job queue about force check-in then you can't access some pages in PWA.
    Maybe you need to check in the pages which has been checked out.
    If you have administrative rights, it is possible to override the check-out via the View All Site Content page:
    Site Actions->View All Site Content->Pages->Hover the item you want to check in, and from the context-menu (arrow-down next to the filename), choose "Discard Check Out"
    Besides, to troubleshooting the error “Sorry, you don't have access to this page”, refer to the following articles:

    is http as well under different from HTTP80, HTTP809 application pool
    File conversion if fine for small files and large files to some point - we can process same large pdf (100MB) 30-50 times, but after that there is a message

    does not show spikes, no memory spikes in Process Manager. ULS logs do not provide any good info either...
    No errors in event log under Applications,

    That error will be shown if we process
    the same file. if try to process different file it works fine (again - few dozen times), but if after that I try to process first file - it shows error again.

    If I just recycle OWA application pools
    - HTTP80, HTTP809 it does not help. (tried to change Recycling condition in IIS for those pools - it slightly improves situation but does not resolve).
    I can reproduce such pattern with different file types, it just matter of number of hits.
    Same error present if we use OWA and wopi on machine as https with certificate.
    We use VerboseEx option for logging - no errors in ULS log files, but multiple Sync exiting

    After IIS reset it works as usual again. After trying another 100mb pdf file 50-60 times OWA stops to process that another file... We are expecting large number of hits and resetting IIS every 30min is not a good solution...
    Any help will be appreciated.

    Hi ,
    Thank you for your post.
    Whether the issue occurs with different file types or only the PDF.
    Based on your description, when you reset WAC server from PowerShell or restart IIS, the issue is solved temporarily.
    I recommend that you check the application account, re-enter the account, then reset the IIS.
    whether the issue occurs with different file types or only the PDF.

  • Can't manage to close blank window left after download an xml file in IE6.

    hi All,
    I have a requirement where i have to open Xml type attachment in New blank window for download. I am using the following code for the same:
    window.open ("URL", "_blank", "location=no;scrollbars=1");
    The code works fine and allow me to download xml in new window. But after download the blank IE window remains which the user need to close manually. I want the blank window to be close after download finishes.
    Also, the problem is occurring because of the IE setting "Reuse window for launching shortcut" which is checked in our case. That is the reason i am using "_blank" for opening xml type attachment.
    Please help me in solving the same. Let me know if you need any further details.
    Thank you for the help.

    Are you talking about JavaScript?
    In that case you're wrong here, as this is a Java forum and JavaScript and Java are entirely different beasts (despite the similarity in name).
    Also: Why do you want to open a download in a new window? A download usually goes directly to a download dialog anyway and doesn't show any content in the window itself, so opening a download in a new window can do nothing but leave an empty window open.

  • When I click images or links that should automatically open in a new window, instead a new blank window opens.

    For some time now and after firefox has automatically been updated a few times, I click on images or links which are supposed to open in a new window automatically. A new window opens but it is blank with no toolbars, just an adress bar with nothnig in it.

    mha007, Thank you. I walked through your suggested solutions and finally disabled all add-ons and restarted them one by one. The culprit seems to be ViewSourceWith 0.8.11. Interestingly when it is enabled I had to go to TaskManager to force Firefox to quit.
    Maybe this information will help others. I don't know if the cache clearing etc helped but I would suggest that others start but Bringing up Firefox in Safe Mode (hold shift when you select the icon), disable all add-ons and then start them one by one.
    Of course if you have ViewSourceWith maybe you should just disable it first rather than go through the tedium of restarting each add-on separately. To get to the add-ons when it won't open from the toolbar type about:addons in the address area.

  • MS Access Web App: corrupted table, cannot open in Access anymore

    **tldr: How can I delete a corrupted table that prevents me from opening my Web App in Access?**
    I used the Access desktop client to create a new table with approx 20 lookup fields. When I tried saving the table, I received an error message about too many indices. So I set the index option to "no" for all the lookup fields and tried to close
    the "edit table view". However, I was not able to close the edit table view anymore. After trying for a while, I used the task manager to terminate Access.
    Now, when I try to open my app in Access by clicking the "customize in Access" button on the web, I receive several error messages:
     1. Operation failed: the table xxx contains too many indices. Delete some indices and try again. (this error message appears about 5 times)
     2. Microsoft Access can not create the table
     3. A problem occurred when trying to access a property or method of the OLE object.
    Next, I'm at the Access start screen. My application does not open.
    So, is there any other way I can delete the corrupted table without opening it through the Access client? Maybe directly accessing the SQL server? The database is configured to allow read/write connections, becasue I connected to the tables from an Access Desktop
    Database, but I'm not sure if I can delete a table or fields that way. Any help is greatly appreciated!
    [I translated the error messages from German, so they might be slightly different in the English version]

    Not sure, but you may have to many indexes created, see below article:

    Hope its not corrupted though. If so, I hope you have a backup in place.

  • Word Web App (2013) can't open this document ... Because the service is busy

    I have just set up Office Web Apps Server in a SharePoint 2013 test environment as per document here:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff431687.aspx
    Although I had some issues with Excel Web App at first, I've solved this and excel seems to work ok, However, the Word Web App just sits there spinning and ultimately give the error dialog:
    "Sorry, Word Web App can't open this document because the service is busy. Please try again later"   The Same link as above has a simple solution :
     Did you install Office Web Apps Server on a domain controller? Office Web Apps Server cannot run on a domain controller. Office Web Apps Server must be installed on a separate server that is part of a domain. For more information, see
    Software, hardware, and configuration requirements for Office Web Apps Server.
    I certainly did not install on a DC - its a standalone server.
    ULS Logs are growing by 2K per second even when I am not doing anything on the server.
    VERY FRUSTRATED!

    So after further research we have found the following:
    Un-bind and unindstall Web Application Server
    Clean Server
    Reinstall (by Mistake to the C: Drive)
    Bind and Provision
    WOW it works!
    Un-bind, deprovision, Uninstall, Web Application Server
    clean Server
    Re-install to the D: Drive
    Provision and Bind
    wow - it DOES NOT work
    Again - repeat the first scenario
    and once again IT WORKS
    SO Why doesn't it work on the D Drive - We've checked IIS Setting and Permission - there don't seem to be any differences.
    SO - Why isn't this working when changing the default installation location, is it just me?   Has anyone gotten this working installing to another drive?
    Thanks

  • App store won't open after installing OS 10.9.2

    I installed OS 10.9.2 and now my app store won't open.  When I launch it from the dock, the icon bounces and the light illuminates beneath the icon indicating that it is running however no screen ever pops up.  I launched the app store from the applications page and the same thing happened.  I tried restarting the computer and holding the shift key upon reboot but this did nothing as well.  This is incredibly annoying.

    Are you getting the menu bar at the top?
    Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder.  Select Preferences/com.apple.appstore.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
    Restart, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
    If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.
    Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.
    You might need to redo the View settings after an update.

  • FF 5.0 - when I close it, say with 5 tabs open, then later open it again, 5 blank windows open, it doesn't restore my tabs or sites.

    FF 5.0 is not reopening the tabs I had open when I closed it. It opens the number of blank windows corresponding to the number of tabs I previously had open.

    Hi glivezey,
    Try typing ''about:home'' into the address bar. Is that the page you are looking for? If so, go to ''Tools > Options > General'' and save it as your homepage. If that home page doesn't show up the next time you start Firefox, you should look at [[Preferences are not saved]].
    Hopefully this helps!
