Error: Worker was destroyed

See original GitHub issue

Getting this error when I go to another component and come back to the component that includes the pdf. It works fine on first visit to the component.

Error: Worker was destroyed at _fetchDocument (eval at <anonymous> (app.js:6530), <anonymous>:2541:27) at eval (eval at <anonymous> (app.js:6530), <anonymous>:2527:12) at <anonymous>

I tried to reproduce it with this jsfiddle, but couldn’t get the same error…

Any ideas?

@ChenMachluf thanks for your fix ! Since several people are waiting for this fix, I commit your 2nd proposition while https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/pull/8738 is pending.

That little fix solve the problem for me. https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/issues/8738 hope it will merge soon

If it not accepted there we can change this to the end of “loadDocument” in pdf.vue

loadingTask
.then(function(pdf) {
	pdfDoc = pdf;
	emitEvent('numPages', pdf.numPages);
	emitEvent('loaded');
})
.catch(function(err) {
	clearCanvas();
	clearAnnotations();
	emitEvent('error', err);
})
.then(function(){
	loadingTask._worker = null;
})
