Device: Kindle Keyboard 3.4.2
I had a similar problem to Fralik - jailbroken Kindle Keyboard on firmware 3.4.2, launching KindlePDFViever gives 'Success!' message then returns me to native menu. I looked in the crash.log file and found that reader.lua wasn't being found, even though it was clearly present in the same directory as the launching script.

Changing the line in kpdf.sh to give the path explicitly (mnt/us/…) didn't work. I could get the script to find (and fail to execute, obviously) other files, but reader.lua remained invisible.

I tried the latest stable (2013.1) build, latest nightly (93, 7/7/13) and the previous stable (2012.11) but none worked. I noticed that the last two nightlies were labelled 'deprecated' and therefore tried the one before them (85, 14/5/13). This worked.

I put this post here in case anyone else has 'reader.lua not found' problems - Google turns up three copies of a question about this (after someone used the devs' fix to issue 814 on Github), but no solutions.
