simple UIButton always crashes my app on touch - iphone

Question

i have a strange problem.
On my view i have two segmented controls and one button.
The segmented controls work perfectly but my button crashes the app when i touch it.
NSLog won't be called anymore.
PageViewController.h
paintingOptions = [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(200,30,100,100)];
[paintingOptions setTitle:#"Ok" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[paintingOptions setBackgroundColor:[UIColor blackColor]];
[paintingOptions addTarget:self action:#selector(showPaintingOptions:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[self.view addSubview:paintingOptions];
-(void) showPaintingOptions: (id) sender {
NSLog(#"Button pressed");
}
Any hints on how to solve that ?
Debug:
The debug output says nothing but (gdb).
Xcode shows me this line:
PDFViewController.h
- (UIView *)view {
return self.scrollView; }
0x32c37102 <+0014> ldr r1, [pc, #16] (0x32c37114 <-[UIViewController nextResponder]+32>)
But this function is in another view controller.
So the view where i have the button in is a subview of this scrollView.
Adding PageViewController to PDFViewController:
- (void)loadScrollViewWithPage:(int)page
{
if (page < 0)
return;
if (page >= kNumberOfPages)
return;
// replace the placeholder if necessary
PageViewController *controller = [viewControllers objectAtIndex:page];
if ((NSNull *)controller == [NSNull null])
{
//page+1 cause CGPDF indexing starts with 1
controller = [[PageViewController alloc] initWithPageNumberAndUrl:page+1: [chapter urlOnFilesystem]];
[viewControllers replaceObjectAtIndex:page withObject:controller];
[controller release];
}
// add the controller's view to the scroll view
if (controller.view.superview == nil)
{
CGRect frame = scrollView.frame;
frame.origin.x = frame.size.width * page;
frame.origin.y = 0;
controller.view.frame = frame;
[scrollView addSubview:controller.view];
}
}

From the crash log it looks like -(void) showPaintingOptions: (id) sender is not in your target self. Please make sure that.
