    Hi,

    I was trying to install Adobe Reader 7 on IBM AIX 5.3. Installation went successfully. But when I am starting the reader as below I am getting the below errors. Could anyone let me know the correct version of dependant package?
    Is there any licensed Adobe Reader software available for IBM AIX

    1. /usr/bin/acroread
    exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program /usr/lpp/Adobe/Acrobat7.0/Reader/rs6000aix/bin/acroread because of the following errors:
    0509-150 Dependent module libgdk_pixbuf_xlib-2.0.a(libgdk_pixbuf_xlib-2.0.so.0) could not be loaded.
    0509-022 Cannot load module libgdk_pixbuf_xlib-2.0.a(libgdk_pixbuf_xlib-2.0.so.0).
    0509-026 System error: A file or directory in the path name does not exist.

    If my memory serves me correct you have to install the GTK libraries from the "AIX Toolbox for Linux Applications". As you might see from the errors it seem like GTK was used to build the Acroreader for AIX (...for whatever reason?).

    Hi,

    I tried to download gtk2-2.8.3-9 as mentioned in the link, but I could find only gtk2-2.10.6-2.aix5.2.ppc.rpm in the IBM Tool box.

    Could you please let me know from where I can download the above package?

    GTK has a maze of dependencies so I would advice you to download the whole toolbox image rather than dowloading selected packages. It's somewhat easier when you have all on the same level instead of bits and pieces that may have other unexpected dependencies.

    Hi,
    Have you gotten Acorbat7 installed and running?

    If not let me know and I will try and get a list of the
    current Linux toolkit modules that I am using to get it to
    work.

    Bye,
    Dwight

    P.S.
    I just completed a complete reinstall of AIX 5.3 on
    a 9114-275 and Acorbat7 and Acrobat5 seem to be working
    OK!

    Just select 'gtk2' on that site, and then select any of the versions that are available. I generally select the latest one. It will be a mess to try to download all of the dependencies one-by-one as they come up, primarily because you won't know the order, but if you're persistent, it can be done.
