Error Executing a Test PDF

[bdowd625]

Here is my script in the PHP file:

require_once("include/h2p/autoloader.php");
use H2P\Converter\PhantomJS;
use H2P\TempFile;

$converter = new PhantomJS();
$input = new TempFile('test string to pdf', 'html'); // Make sure the 2nd parameter is 'html'

$converter->convert($input, '/pdf/testpage.pdf');

Here is the error:

Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'H2P\Exception' with message 'Error while executing PhantomJS: ""' in /h2p/src/H2P/Converter/PhantomJS.php:283 Stack trace: #0 /h2p/src/H2P/Converter/ConverterAbstract.php(136): H2P\Converter\PhantomJS->transform(Object(H2P\Request), '/...') #1 /h2ptest.php(19): H2P\Converter\ConverterAbstract->convert(Object(H2P\TempFile), '/...') #2 {main} thrown in /h2p/src/H2P/Converter/PhantomJS.php on line 283

Did you downloaded the phantomjs binaries and put it on the right folder?

[bdowd625]

Yes, I downloaded, extracted, and placed in the h2p/bin/linus-x86_64 folder.

At first, i was getting an error about the binaries not being found, but I changed its permission to 777 and it gave the new error.

[kriansa]

It doesn't look like PHP executed phantom at all. Can you try this code below and tell me its output?

echo shell_exec('bin/linux-x86_64/phantomjs -v');

[bdowd625]

All the page says is:

1.9.7

[kriansa]

That's expected. Can you do a chmod +x in the bin/converter.js file and try again?

Edit: No, wait, this won't work either.

[bdowd625]

No change, exact same error when running the original php script

[bdowd625]

The script is creating a pdf file in the folder, but the pdf is corrupt (0kb). It's also blank when I open in a text editor.

In case that helps at all.

Does not work with simple example, phantomjs 1.9.7:

PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught exception 'H2P\Exception' with message 'Error while executing PhantomJS: "SyntaxError: Unable to parse JSON string"' in \vendor\kriansa\h2p\src\H2P\Converter\PhantomJS.php:283

That could be because the page that phantomjs is rendering carries on that error. I'm planning to create a PR with an updated version of the converter. However if you want to make a try, I have a fork of it in my repos.

[kriansa]

@topazas Have you tried another html file? Maybe it's because you had a JS error as described by @ilpaijin.

[gustavowiller]

Hello! I have the same error of @topazas , I tried use the simple example.

[sparkweb]

I'm having the same problem as @topazas and @gustavowiller. I've tried the simple example and I'm getting nothing back from the processor. I'm running this on a mac (yosemite). I have the binary in place, I tried running chmod +x on the file and I'm just getting nothing back from the shell execution. Same line number - the $result is blank.

EDIT: I get this when doing a convert on google.com and also when doing a simple HTML conversion $input = new \H2P\TempFile("<b>test</b>", 'html');

EDIT AGAIN: when I try to run the shell commands directly in terminal I get "Killed: 9". The zero-byte file shows up.

E aí @kriansa tranquilo?

Kra, estou com um probleminha, baixei seus 2 repositórios - openboleto e H2P - fazendo testes no Windows (8.1) tive a seguinte mensagem de erro - Error while executing PhantomJS: "SyntaxError: JSON Parse error: Expected '}'"

Baixei o phantomjs.exe e coloquei no diretório win32 conforme orientações da documentação e nada.

Estou usando CakePHP para minha aplicação.

Uma coisa estranha que reparei, é que ele diz não ter permissão para escrever o arquivo no diretório temporário "The destination file is not writable!" no ConverterAbstract.php na linha 132

Já tentei todos os exemplos e nada.
Se tiver um tempo para uma ajuda... obrigado man.

Hmmm same error here on OSX Yosemite. Anybody got a working solution?

Seems like the temp file can't be created. Will try tonight on linux machine....

edit hmmm seems like there aren't any binary packages for linux yet :(

[Bechrissed]

Well, i got it running using on a linux server. Unfortunately you have to compile your own binary for linux if you want to use PhantomJS versions > 2.0

1.9.8 (x64) can be downloaded here: https://bitbucket.org/ariya/phantomjs/downloads/$PHANTOM_JS.tar.bz2
