As you guessed, this is quite likely a It is hard to tell what you have tried or what your configuration is, but my usual recommendation here is the same as in this comment or in this guide: start by uninstalling and re-installing the relevant software and then exactly repeat the steps in In case you haven't already, it would probably useful to read through #2391 from start to finish and see if anything applies to you. There is also another problem: your
This means using inverse search will be impossible. My guess is you are using command line Vim; you will need GUI MacVim, command line Neovim, or to compile command line Vim from source with client server enabled if you want to use inverse search on macOS. This article might be helpful. PS: If you post your |

Thanks for your reply. I follow the strict procedure before I post this question. Except one case that i change the directory Also it was not just zathura can not running but also skim would the same information |
Hmm, if you've followed
It does seem strange the Skim does not work either, I thought Skim did not require
@lervag, this appears to be his relevant VimTeX config based on the posted link; I don't see anything suspicious besides setting both let g:tex_flavor='latex'
"let g:vimtex_compiler_method='latexrun'

This issue is clearly not only dbus related. Without dbus, Zathura should still work, but forward and backward sync will not work.
I'm slow, sorry: Which strict procedure are you referring to?
Do you mean you first tried without changing the directory, and it didn't work? And then afterwards, you tried to change the directory, and it still doesn't work?
I'm sorry to be so blunt, but your For the VimTeX specific content in your " I'm not sure if vimtex and vim-latex-live-preview works well together.
" I would disable this when you are debugging issues with vimtex. Or, MUUUCH
" better, use the minimal example approach explained later!

let g:livepreview_previewer='zathura'
let g:livepreview_engine='latexmk'
Plugin 'lervag/vimtex'
" The following settings for VimTeX can be simplified:

let g:vimtex_view_method='zathura'
let g:latex_view_general_viewer='zathura'
let g:vimtex_quickfix_mode =1
let g:vimtex_view_enabled=1
let g:vimtex_view_automatic=1
" To this:
let g:vimtex_view_method = 'zathura'

I'm trying to understand what's going on. I will find answers for you, but you need to slow down and provide what I ask for. As you said yourself, you are inexperienced. I know what I am doing and what I am asking for.
Ok, now we are getting somewhere! Notice how you have several plugins that are loaded:
I advice that you, for now, remove all of these (move them to a temporary folder). You can add them back afterwards when things work. But notice that these are plugins in your config that are loaded in addition to the ones you load with Vundle.
No, that is not the output after you press

Was out of time earlier. So, to give some further explanations: VimTeX uses the callback and clientserver mechanism of Vim to start the viewers. This is an ubiquitous feature and should be available in most systems. @ejmastnak already mentioned this in the very first post:
When I read this the first time, I forgot that the clientserver is more important that communicated here. That is, it is not only used for inverse search — it is also used for automatically starting the viewers. So, without a proper clientserver, VimTeX will not open a viewer automatically. This should be relatively easy to address, but I believe it is better that we first figure out why Zathura does not start when you do |
|
I run |
|
Great. This shows specifically why Zathura does not work. I'm sorry to say that I can not help very much further with this specific problem. If you are not able to solve this with instructions from You could use Skim; I know a lot of people uses it and it should work quite well. I believe it should already work, and that the only issue would be that you need the clientserver feature for auto open. |
|
I have tried both skim and zathura before, and both of them won't work. I remember i found an article that the author mention that the method to deal with zathura in vim, roughly the same with Another thing updated is that I can open the pdf file outside the terminal. In the meantime, If i compile the tex and make change to the content, zathura will still automatically update even in display mode. But the unhappy thing is that i need to open two windows not the ideal way like one terminal side by side. This is the compromise way for now. If I run zathura outside terminal, does it support inverse and forward search? |
|
Thought I would chime back in.
I notice that this is the same error as in #2391. As a sanity check, @EdwardWong1994, could you please open a
This is great to know, and also explains why Skim wouldn't auto-start. I didn't know VimTeX used @EdwardWong1994, you write:
The short answer is no, to the best of my knowledge. You'd need both dbus and Finally, @EdwardWong1994, @lervag quite frankly has the patience of a saint to keep helping you through all of this. Even if its not my place to say so, it would be nice to be more explicitly appreciative of his help in this thread. |
|
Also:
@EdwardWong1994, what happens if in your vimrc you:
|
No! I'll be brief, because @ejmastnak already provided good updates here. But it seems to me that you don't read my answers!
Stop reading arbitrary articles! I don't care about what you find in a random blog post. Read the documentation that I refer to or blog posts suggested in the thread. Ignore everything else.
What does this mean? With simply
Yes; latexmk signals Zathura to update. That's expected. Please follow the suggestions by @ejmastnak in his last post about Skim and explain the results. |
|
Thanks for both of you to be so patient with me. I really appreciate for the help . I tried what @ejmastnak suggested. comment out For the output of Again, forgive me for keep asking these questions, zathura with vimtex is really what i want |
Unfortunately I don't know at this point how to get Zathura working with VimTeX on macOS. Your I think your options are to either:

What do you mean, i.e. what does "automatically jump skim" mean? That it works as expected? That Skim opens automatically? Does I don't mean to be difficult, but it is important that we communicate clearly. The details are important to properly understand the various behaviours.
Let us keep focus on the minimal examples. We can help with your full
It's OK! I advice that you don't make so many assumptions. Especially, don't try things unless you know what you are doing. Just follow up on what we ask and take it slow. I believe it should be possible to get Zathura working. I think the approach going further is to get Zathura working in the terminal. If we can't get it working from the terminal, then we can't get it working from VimTeX.

I have a feeling that it's a bad sign that the dbus service is stopped. But I'm not sure. To be honest, I don't quite know how to proceed from here. You seem to think that the problem has to do with x86-64; perhaps you are right. I don't really think so, but I can't be sure. Sorry that I'm not able to be of more help. As an optional solution, I propose that you use Skim. It should work well, even though I understand that you would prefer Zathura. |
It is ok. Appreciate for all of your help. I have to compromise to skim but there are still one thing using skim. The skim can jump out when i use |
I'm glad to hear it. I hope you somehow figure it out; if you do, please give an update, as it may be helpful to others.
And yes, I have ideas. First, you really should note what we mentioned earlier, that you want to use a Vim with Next, I'm assuming that this is still your vimrc file. The following is a slightly cleaned up version where I've removed the comments (you can add them back if you want) and updated the VimTeX related configuration for you. I've grouped things, removed duplicate options and similar. I still think it is somewhat messy, but it should be better. Can you test with the following vimrc file and report if Skim works as expected? I.e., to be fully clear:

Thanks for your kind help. @lervag. You are very nice. I need to put this things down a bit cause i need to prepare my oral qualifying exam. After that, i will go back to solve this problem again. Once i have solution, i will also update here. |
Hi, Edward! Have you fixed this problem? I met the same issue. |
Description
I have been struggled for almost two days just want to make the pdfviewer show up. But i can not succeed due to the problem "not using a previewer", not much solution i can find.
Here is my environment for mac system:
I do not know what's the real problem for this. I do not know whether it is related with
dbus. When i usebrew services list, the status of dbus is stopped, not runing. But i can not solve.Here is one of the suspected reason, see below figure:
Steps to reproduce
I am not using
minimal.vim, I edit all the setting in~/.vimrcand using\llcompile the.texfile.Expected behavior
It run with no error but pdf viewer did not pop up.
Actual behavior
I compile my latex file without errors using
\ll, but when I use command\lvto show the pdf, the viewer did not show up. I try to find such problem and find a similar, but the reason is quite different. I use\loto output the compile information as below figureI can use
zathura a.pdfto open the file in the terminal, but when I try to show up the pdf file after compilation, it did not showup. I also try skim as my default viewer, it occur the same "not using a previewer" information.Do you use a latexmkrc file?
No
