View does not work

[Trey Davis]

I use wsl with Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS installed. I installed sage from source code (SageMath version 10.4.beta9.)  View does not work. When I try to use it, it returns the error, "!  ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced!." Latex does work though.

The Sage wiki has a relevant section. I found it useful.

HTH,

Does anyone on linux platform experience sporadic "no pdf file" symptom? 

If so, please report to  https://github.com/sagemath/sage/pull/38339.

We'd appreciate more details on how you run Sage and invoke view, and
what exactly you see in the error message.

E.g. if you run Sage in a WSL terminal and invoke view() at sage:
prompt, I don't even understand how
it can display anything graphic. If, on the other hand, you run Sage
via a jupyter notebook in a native Windows browser
(connected to your local WSL Sage install), then view() ought to
display something in your browser.
