}}
onPageChanged={(page, numberOfPages) => {
console.log(Current page: ${page});
}}

)}

);

I'm facing the same issue, any suggestion?

I am facing the same issue any solution?

Also facing this, but a different error:

java.lang.RuntimeException: Loaded page is null

same issue here.

my workaround: downgrade from 6.7.5 to 6.6.2.

I have temporary solution to fix it, hope this issue will be fixed ASAP.

Downgrade to 6.7.4
Create patch file from our project and apply the fix from this PR: Fix app crash with this.lastRNBFTask.cancel is not a function #827
re-run npm install to apply the patch, crash issue resolved.

Having the same problem here, and also this one :

Any clue on how to fix this ?

my workaround: downgrade from 6.7.5 to 6.6.2.

tested, working on my project

does u guys facing an error while the component finished loading and then the app suddenly crashed? i've been searching for this and got no answer

Any idea how to fix this one? For me the "already closed" issue is raised when user enters pdf screen and then goes to other place in the app - when he comes back to pdf the app crashes with this error.

Is their any solution available for this? I cannot see any potential fix to this currently. Also, downgrading the version does not seems like a fix to this error.

downgrade to 6.6.2 works for me

I have the same problem. It started happening on Android devices after updating the React Native version and the package.

"react-native": "^0.75.2",
"react-native-pdf": "^6.7.5",

@tsalama

Hi @tsalama
are you able to solve the issue

@jay4008

@jay4008 Yes but only by downgrading to 6.7.3

I downgraded to version 6.7.3, and the issue was resolved, but the author released version 6.7.7 thirteen days ago, and I haven't tried it.

It's still crashing in 6.7.7, so no need to close this yet. It's still an ongoing issue that hopefully should be fixed asap? :-)

ฉันลดรุ่นลงเป็นเวอร์ชั่น 6.7.3 และปัญหาได้รับการแก้ไขแล้ว แต่ผู้เขียนได้เปิดตัวเวอร์ชั่น 6.7.7 เมื่อสิบสามวันที่แล้ว และฉันยังไม่ได้ลองเลย

เวอร์ชัน 6.7.7 ยังคงมีปัญหาอยู่ ดังนั้นไม่จำเป็นต้องปิดปัญหานี้เลย ปัญหานี้ยังคงมีอยู่และหวังว่าจะได้รับการแก้ไขโดยเร็วที่สุด :-)

me too.

How come it is closed? we are still facing the issue.

It's still crashing in 6.7.7

We have over 20 crashes daily due to this error

Unfortunately, if I downgrade to 6.7.2, I cannot open iOS links. I applied a patch to open links on 6.7.6. But I am having an Android crash problem with 6.7.6.

We would need a solution , because of this i can't build my enterprise app , which has a core functionality of showing pdf.

This library is currently using com.github.zacharee:AndroidPdfViewer:4.0.1

react-native-pdf/android/build.gradle

Line 127 in d49cb92

implementation 'com.github.zacharee:AndroidPdfViewer:4.0.1'

The fix from r0b0t3d is in 4.0.2

https://github.com/zacharee/AndroidPdfViewer/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#402

So this react-native-pdf library is simply 1 version behind the fix. A single line of code and a re-release is needed to help out these devs (nobody wants to contribute a PR apparently).

In the meantime:

If you don't want to bother, just fork/patch the repo for now, or you could probably just hack this in your Android Application class as well by ignoring the crash with a global uncaught exception handler.

override fun onCreate() {
        super.onCreate()

        val defaultHandler = Thread.getDefaultUncaughtExceptionHandler()

        Thread.setDefaultUncaughtExceptionHandler { thread, throwable ->
            if (throwable is IllegalStateException && throwable.message?.contains("Already closed") == true) {
                // Do nothing
            } else {
                defaultHandler?.uncaughtException(thread, throwable)
            }
        }
    }

Don't copy paste the above code, just wondering if it works in this case.

I can't use the 4.0.2 version
is not exist in nvm

https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.github.zacharee/AndroidPdfViewer
I see only the 4.0.1 version

How can we use the 4.0.2 version?

+1

In the latest version 7.0.0, the same issue is still reproducing.

Sentry reports the same error for me.

experiencing on production.any updates?

I migrated the PDF viewing implementation to https://github.com/126punith/react-native-pdf-jsi, and since then I have not encountered this crash anymore. It seems the issue is resolved with this library.
