Printing to PDF via WebForms
We have a PB 11.5 application deployed into WebForms that works fine on dev desktop pc's. When we try and get it running on our test and live servers we run into problems. We can't get the print to PDF functionality working. We have set up the "Sybase DataWindow PS" and Ghostscript 8.71 given them the permissions that the documentation says it requires but no joy. We get the a zero bytes PDF file. We get no error messages or any indication that there was a problem, in fact it is exactly the same result as if we don't have the "Sybase DataWindow PS" installed. Any ideas? Thanks.

Hi Brian, It sounds like either the ghostscript files aren't being found or there is a permissions issue on the server. Does dw.saveas() return a good code? You can check the archived webform newsgroup for lots of hits on printing heartache. hth, Mark On 8/4/2010 1:43 AM, Brian wrote: > We have a PB 11.5 application deployed into WebForms that > works > fine on dev desktop pc's.

Hi Mark Thanks for the reply. You were right, it was a permissions problem. It was clouded by the fact the we could not read the machines registry settings from within our application. Once we used a registry.xml file, set the IIS back to defaults and redeployed it worked. Not sure why we can't read the registry, documentation says we should be able too, but we are happy to use an xml file.

webform print to pdf creates a blank .pdf
I have a webform app with a datawindow that prints or calls a saveas (pdf!), either way the file is created but a blank pdf! is created. I don't think its the ghost script .dlls because if I disable the security to the ghost script .dlls, the print or saveas fails. Is there some other piece I'm could be missing? Using pb11.0 6525 on an XP machine with IIS5 runing I had this happen to me and I *think* it may have been due to my modifying the driver that I defined for Sybase DataWindow PS printer to a driver that was in a path not accessible by ASPNET user under ...
