"View as PDF" does not include avatars

hi,

 

I am troubleshooting some problem where "View as PDF" sometimes does not work for discussions. Right now I am not at a point where I can surely reproduce that problem. Sometimes PDF get generated other times not.

 

 

But I found another problem with as PDFs that get generated. The avatar images do not show up in the PDF.

 

This is a screenshot of the thread:

And this is the PDF (it is also attached).

These are our customized FTLs:

/template/decorator/default/header-favicon.ftl                   
/template/decorator/default/page-footer.ftl                   
/template/global/custom-css.ftl                   
/template/global/include/view-profile-friends-list.ftl                   
/template/global/people.ftl                   
/template/global/unauth.ftl                   
/template/global/user-bar.ftl                   
/template/global/view-profile.ftl                   
/template/socialgroup/socialgroup-form.ftl

 

I attached the log files catalina.out clearspace.log.

 


best regards,

Nils

Re: "View as PDF" does not include avatars

Hi Nils,

 

Can you send me your logs as they are now (after PDF stopped working altogether)?  Are you using Weblogic?  Another customer has run into a similar issue and it was caused by a misconfiguration with Weblogic.  Are you still using Clearspace 2.5.17?

 

Thanks,

Cory

Hey Nils,

 

Can you send me all of your theme files.  This is located in jiveHome/themes.  The Admin Console home page will list the location of your jiveHome directory.  I would like to load up your theme locally so that I can isolate whether or not this issue is related to your theme.


Thanks,

Cory

Hey Nils,

 

Sounds good.  I'll load up your customizations and let you know what I find.

 

Thanks,

Re: "View as PDF" does not include avatars

Hi Nils,

 

I have confirmed that this is not related to your theme.  Does this happen with all content or just discussions?  Is it all discussions, or just some discussions?


Thanks,

Cory

Re: "View as PDF" does not include avatars

Hey Nils,

 

I was able to reproduce this issue by modifying my jiveURL system property.  In the Admin Console, go to System > Settings > System Properties and look for jiveURL.  Please verify that this is exactly as it appears in your URL bar, without a trailing slash.  For example,

http://www.lufthansa.de/online/community

 

Let me know if this helps.

 

Thanks,

Cory

Re: "View as PDF" does not include avatars

Hi Nils,

 

The jiveURL does not appear to be the problem.  Can you see if the server can access itself using that URL?  Try performing a wget from the server:

wget https://eteaming.staging.ebase.dlh.de

 

I will see if the issue could be related to using https.

 

Thanks,

Cory

Re: "View as PDF" does not include avatars

Hi Nils,

 

I have filed a bug for this issue.  The bug ID is CS-17471.  The filter that is set up to handle converting the document to prepare it for converting to PDF does not handle avatar images.  Let me know if you have more questions about this.

 

Thanks,

Cory
