plugin only loads when switching tabs, not when opening file

Experiencing the same.

Me too.

I don't. Could you please launch gedit from a terminal, and copy the output of the command? thanks.

The specific steps I followed to do this:
1. Disable the LaTeX plugin.
2. Exit gedit.
3. Start gedit from terminal.
4. Open a LaTeX document.
5. Click Edit > Preferences, switch to the Plugins tab
6. Check the box next to "Gedit LaTeX Plugin 0.2 rc1". The traceback appears in the terminal output at this point. The toolbar does not appear.

Seen, It appear on 0.2r2 as well.
you can keep the plugin actived, so

Still happens with rc3

Still happening with 0.2

0.2 rc3 + gedit 2.30.0 did it for me.

Well, I fixed the problem: my latex document was separated into several files and some of then had accented characters. When I removed all of them, the plugin load normally.

Hi,
could you please check if the problem is still present on the current (3.3.x) versions?

If the problem was related to accented chars, seems fixed now ( I'm currently trying with Oneiric and latex-plugin 3.3 from oneiric-backports)

thanks.

The problem persists in Pangolin ; gedit 3.4.
No Latex menu item;
furthermore, gedit crashes when I try to access Preferences from the Edit > Preferences > Plugins > Latex plugin > Preferences.
I am on Xubuntu.

oops, forgot to copy my terminal output after launching gedit

Hi,
I can't reproduce this in Precise. Just to be sure, the bar is not on another level, but on the right, did you notice that?
For me it's working, I opened a normal .tex file, and the bar appeared, then switched to another file (not .tex), and the bar again do what it's supposed to do.

If you can provide a more extensive explaination I'll be glad. Let me know, and thanks for your help.

(about the other problem, perhaps it's better to file another bug... before that, take a look if this file is correct:
/usr/share/gedit/plugins/latex/tools.xml )

Ciào Andrea,

scrivo in inglese x tutti.

what do you mean by "take a look if this file is correct:

/usr/share/gedit/plugins/latex/tools.xml )" ?

this is it:

in fact everything worked fine until an updating. As i'm using precise i have to update it over and over till the stable release comes out.
i dont have a clue what it might be. is it the new python 2.6 or gtk+3?
i dont feel like start learning another prog.language in order to solve this issue.
thanks in advance
spero ci sentiamo in giornata!!

The traceback says the xml parser can't read the xml file. So, or the
file is corrupted, or the filename is wrong.
Your file seems ok, so probably he's trying to read a file in another
(can be some misconfiguration due to the upgrading, in fact)

We need to do some further investigations.
Let's try that: if you create another user, does the issue still appear?
( you can use useradd/adduser from a terminal, and then use su/sudo to
run gedit with that user's environment, no need to logout/login)

bye.

- Andrea Gasparini -

huh
it's interesting enough. adopting your suggestion, I try to activate latex plugin from Edit>Preferences>Plugins.
The Latex and Bibtex tab appear on the menu bar, but only for a fraction of the second, after which disappear.
They blinks so fast I can hardly see what it's written in the tabs.

a presto!

Andrea, don't worry about my last msg, I have to correct myself, your suggestion is working somehow.
I'm looking for a solution to some little issues. I'll let you know if I meet a hurdle and need your help further.
Thank you for now!!
Grazie tanto per le risposte tempestive!

Here we are, again.
I couldn't resolve it. So if you have some time we can try to.

this is the output of the terminal from which i launched gedit, from the new user created as you said.
