Hi List,

I’ve installed the MapFish print module under GeoServer. But on demo print page I can not get response from server. Is there anybody to help investigate why my server doesn’t create pdf?
I attached a console screen about request.

Thank you very much!

Hi
the info you provided is not enough to understand what it is wrong
with your configuration.
Could you please provide also the output of the response?

Hi Paolo,

It is hard to provide output of response, because there is no response at all. Just 500 Internal Server Error after some times.
How can I provide any other details to you?
I use a default print demo page: :8080/geoserver/web/?wicket:bookmarkablePage=:org.geoserver.printing.PrintDemoPage
After installation there wasn’t created autamatically /printing folder in Geoserver_dat_dir,with config.yaml. But I copied to there.
Thank you for your time, to investigate.

Regards,
Zsolt

this is strange indeed.
What GeoServer version are you using? Did you restart the servlet engine?
Another test you can make is to build and deploy the MapFish war file
as suggested here:

Thank you for your answer.
With print server under Geoserver the next response appeared:

Error while generating PDF:
org.mapfish.print.InvalidValueException: url has an invalid value: [http://geoserver.org/download/attachments/10158143/pbGS-Bttn228x68.png](http://geoserver.org/download/attachments/10158143/pbGS-Bttn228x68.png)
	at org.mapfish.print.PDFUtils.createImage(PDFUtils.java:385) ....

I don’t know why invalid this working url…
So I’ve deploy a separate printing-servlet and it seems to work.
