Hi. We are using xwiki for almost two years (as internal knowledge base) and although we still have some problems - thank you very much for all you work, I hope we will be able to solve some paining issues ;-), I'm pretty determined to dig until success, I count on your help and promise to give sufficient feedback. Our main problems are: * broken PDF export (generated null-byte files) * broken search on non-latin1 characters (that I'll describe in separate thread) Hera are the details My platform is: tomcat 5.5.17 running in locale pl_PL.UTF-8 JDK 1.5.0 mysql 5.0 with default charset UTF-8 (and DB in UTF-8 too). xwiki.war 9.840, but the same bahaviour is on latest SVN trunk. I suppose that problem with PDF export has something to do with UTF-8. I'm pretty sure I have UTF-8 configured properly (xwiki.encoding in xwiki.cfg and filter in web.xml), non-latin1 characters are being properly written to and read from database, are also properly rendered in xwiki pages. When I click PDF export link (even viewing document containing only ASCII characters) I receive an empty file and some entries in catalina.out: ######## <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en" xml:lang="en"> <head> <title> Wiki - Sandbox - TestTopic1 </title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> <meta name="revisit-after" content="7 days" /> <meta name="description" content="Intranet Wiki" /> <meta name="keywords" content="wiki" /> <meta name="distribution" content="GLOBAL" /> <meta name="rating" content="General" /> <meta name="copyright" content="you need to choose your copyright" /> <meta name="author" content="" /> <meta http-equiv="reply-to" content="" /> <meta name="language" content="pl" /> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> [...] line 5 column 1 - Warning: <html> has XML attribute "xml:lang" [Fatal Error] :78:27: Invalid byte 1 of 1-byte UTF-8 sequence. 19:53:36,729 WARN TP-Processor4 https://xwiki.biuro.contium.pl:5443/xwiki/bin/pdf/Sandbox/TestTopic1 XWikiAction:execute:185 - Uncaught exception: Error number 12003 in 12: XSL Transformation Failed Wrapped Exception: Invalid byte 1 of 1-byte UTF-8 sequence. com.xpn.xwiki.XWikiException: Error number 12003 in 12: XSL Transformation Failed Wrapped Exception: Invalid byte 1 of 1-byte UTF-8 sequence. at com.xpn.xwiki.pdf.impl.PdfExportImpl.applyXsl(PdfExportImpl.java:176) at com.xpn.xwiki.pdf.impl.PdfExportImpl.convertXHtmlToXMLFO(PdfExportImpl.java:154) at com.xpn.xwiki.pdf.impl.PdfExportImpl.exportXHtml(PdfExportImpl.java:86) at com.xpn.xwiki.pdf.impl.PdfExportImpl.exportHtml(PdfExportImpl.java:115) at com.xpn.xwiki.pdf.impl.PdfExportImpl.export(PdfExportImpl.java:129) at com.xpn.xwiki.pdf.impl.PdfExportImpl.exportToPDF(PdfExportImpl.java:119) at com.xpn.xwiki.web.PDFAction.render(PDFAction.java:45) at com.xpn.xwiki.web.XWikiAction.execute(XWikiAction.java:146) [...] ######## Do you any have any idea what can be the cause of this exception? I suppose that ' <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en" xml:lang="en">' has nothing to do, although I don't know why lang, content-type and charset are derived both from templates/httpheader.vm and xwiki->preferences. I hope I will be able to run it under eclipse soon, maybe I find the problem.... Best regards, Richard. -- "First they ignore you. Then they laugh at you. Then they fight you.
