Command not working in tmux

[Sharon Kimble]

I have the strange situation that a command does not work in tmux, but
works in a plain terminal window. The command is "texdoc soul" which
opens the "soul.pdf" in the default PDF viewer. Except that it does not
work in tmux. In tmux it replies with -

╭────
│Failed to get bus connection: Could not connect: Connection refused
╰────

Yet if I use that same command in a terminal window it works! So why
doesn't it work in tmux, but does in a straight terminal?

Thanks
Sharon.

Hi

Something in the environment is not set or out of date inside tmux, my
money is on some D-Bus variable or DISPLAY.
