Steve,

When you do 'forrest run' and have your site served by jetty - do you see
images in your PDFs then?

Where are you placing your images in the src file structure? What type of
file image are you trying to include? Just wondering if you have a more
general issue than what you describe.

Good questions Mark. We need to know if it works in 'forrest run'.

Also see the demo in the forrest seed sample site. Try building
and deploying its WAR. There are some general issues with
placement of source images.

FOR-735 was closed prior to 0.8 release, so that should be fine.

You don't say, but have you followed the FAQ:
http://forrest.apache.org/docs/faq.html#pdf_images
... but i suppose you would have or images would
also be missing in 'forrest run' mode.

-David

Images are displayed fine in PDFs served by Jetty.

I am placing the images in src/documentation/resources/images.

I am trying to include SVGs and PNGs. Both these file types work fine in
PDFs served by Jetty when in the above location.

I will try to deploy the seed site's WAR file.

I don't think my problem is related to FOR-635 as images display fine in
PDFs served by Jetty ('forrest run').

Yes, I have followed that FAQ. Images are not missing in 'forrest run' mode.

You'll probably need to include the jimi.jar (or JAI) somehow in the
WAR (or tomcat) -- does anyone know how and where?

I just checked via our forrest seed site. Yes the jimi library
does get added to the *.war if it is present in $FORREST_HOME/lib/optional
as recommended.

I don't have time to try the war in a Tomcat. Steve is trying that.

I checked my WAR file and jimi.jar is included.

Images are still missing from PDFs when the 'forrest seed' WAR file is
deployed on Tomcat.

Please do the following:
- request instead of FILE.pdf FILE.fo
e.g. http://localhost:8080/my-project/samples-b/ascii-art.fo
- search for fo:external-graphic and copy the tag here in this list.
e.g. <fo:external-graphic
src="context:///project/src/documentation/content/xdocs/samples-b/cocoon-pyramid.png"/>

This way we/you can see the location referenced and whether they exist
in this location.

The external-graphic tag is:

<fo:external-graphic
src="context:/\/project/src/documentation/content/xdocs/samples/cocoon-pyramid.png"/>

It is correct from "src/documentation..." onwards, but the first part
doesn't look right.

Hmm, yeah that really looks ugly. AFAIR \ is an escape character for
many os and regexp. Weird that it is switched in your case.

Did you try in jetty?

We need to look in the fo xsl, whether we have OS specific code. BTW are
you on linux or windows?

Yes. The external-graphic tag in Jetty is:

<fo:external-graphic
src="C:\Forrest_Test\test/src/documentation/content/xdocs/samples/cocoon-pyramid.png"/>

I am using Windows Vista, but I had exactly the same problem on Windows XP.

Hi all,

If there is no quick fix to get images in PDFs displayed in deployed WAR
files, is there a way of getting PDFs to be displayed at all when the webapp
directory is deployed on Tomcat?

I have deployed the webapp directory on Tomcat, and the HTML is displayed
fine. However, clicking on the PDF icon gives the error message "Resource
Not Found".

There are no error messages when I run the command "forrest run-webapp".
Everything seems to be built correctly.

If I manually copy the PDFs to the
"build\webapp\project\src\documentation\content\xdocs\" folder then the PDFs
are displayed. But surely this can't be the correct way?

Any ideas?

-Steve

Hmm, my problem with this issue is that I cannot test it (in linux it
works fine). In any way the images in pdf are quite hacky and lately
they have been done some work on the pdf plugin to overcome this
problem.

I expect that the solution is updating the pdf plugin to 0.3 of trunk
but since https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOR-1074 I cannot ask
you test but you may watch this issue and try as soon we fixed it.

Hi all,

I have exacty the same issue ...

I'm using forrest 0.8.
My site is in a webapp runing on Tomcat 6.0.18 with Java 1.6

I tried with PNG --> My images aren't displayed on PDF
I tried with JPG --> My images aren't displayed on PDF

My links to images are relatives (e.g: src="../resources/anImage.jpg")

And when i look in my .fo i have :
fo:external-graphic
src="context:///project/src/documentation/content/xdocs/mySpecificProject/conception/specificModule/fonctionnal/../resource/anImage.jpg"

This external-graphic FO link doesn't seem correct.


And when I take a look to the "document-to-fo.xsl" which is in my specific
skin folder i see that :

<xsl:variable name="imgpath">
<xsl:choose>
<!-- resources image dir -->
<xsl:when test="starts-with(string(@src),'images/')">
<xsl:value-of
select="concat($imagesdir,substring-after(@src,'images'))"/>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="contains(string(@src),'/images/')">
<xsl:value-of
select="concat($imagesdir,substring-after(@src,'/images'))"/>
</xsl:when>
<!-- already absolute -->
<xsl:when test="contains(string(@src),':') or
starts-with(string(@src),'/')">
<xsl:value-of select="@src"/>
</xsl:when>
<!-- relative to document -->
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:value-of select="concat($xmlbasedir,@src)"/>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:variable>
<fo:external-graphic src="{$imgpath}">

And I can't figure where xmlbasedir is set ?!

So I guess xmlbasedir is wrong when runing in webapp mode ?!

I found logs about this error , here is a line from this logs :

http-8080-1/ExternalGraphic: Error while creating area : Error with image
URL:
context:/project/src/documentation/content/xdocs/specificProject/conception/specificModule/fonctionnal/resource/anImage.jpg
(No such file or directory) and no base URL is specified

Google told me that context:// is a cocoon protocol (get a resource using
the servlet context)

So in my opinion error could be the fact that we try to reach
context:/project/.../anImage.jpg instead of
context:///project/../anImage.jpg

Or that
/project/src/documentation/content/xdocs/specificProject/conception/specificModule/fonctionnal/resource/anImage.jpg
is not in the "servlet context"..


What's more I tried all of this with the forrest sample and with jre 1.6
with apache-tomcat-0.6.18 on Windows (this time) and i have exactly the same
issue...

So you should be able to reproduce this issue easly at your home with
Windows/Unix , tomcat 6.0.18, java 1.6 and a war version (from forrest war).

PS: I tried with jimi-1.0.jar , and I have exactly the same issue
PS2: I tried with GIF, PNG and JPG image , and I have exactly the same Issue

Hi guys !

Did someone take a look on this issue ? Are you reproducing ?

Thanks

There has been work done on the PDF plugin. However, i think
that you would need to be using the 0.9-dev trunk to take
advantage.

Have you done all the things suggested earlier in this thread?
Do you see the same problems with the "forrest seed" sample site?

Anyway, if it still persists after trying the 0.9-dev
then i suggest raising the issue on the "dev" mail list.

Hi thanks for your answer !

Yes I tried verything !

What's more I think every one can see this error quite easily, since you
only need to do that
On any OS, on any browser
1/ Download apache-forrest-0.8 (Actual release)
2/ Downlaod apache-tomcat-6-0.18 (Actual release)
3/ Use java 1.6 (Actual release)
4/ forrest seed (To create sample forrest site)
5/ forrest war (to create WAR sample forrest site)
6/ put the .war in the tomcat webapps folder
7/ Launch sample forrest application from tomcat
8/ Go to any page with any image of this war sample forrest site
9/ Try to see it in PDF version
10/ See that you don't have image displayed

That take about 10 minutes (After having download Tomcat, apache and java
1.6)

So you are saying that you have tried 0.9-dev
and it is broken too.

I will not be commenting anymore on the user list
about this issue.

Why should I test 0.9-dev ... I'm talking about the official current release
!
I don't want to test the 0.9-dev version, since it's a dev version ....

I need forrest in a company context, and I can't install a dev version.

IMYO forrest 0.8 should be fully fonctional with current products releases
(Tomcat, etc.), and this issue should be in JIRA

I will add it, as soon as possible

Thanks

Hi!
I had trouble with the PDF output as well (in Forrest 0.8) when I tried
to use images scanned from A4 paper in full size. I had to reduce the
resolution of the images down to approx. 840 x 1140 pixels in order to
have them included in the PDF. This happened when I tried to generate my
static forrest site offline for upload but may have the same root cause
as with the WAR deployment. I am using WinXP SP3 and Java 1.6 for
building my site.

Best regards
Thomas

0.8 was tested against tomcat before it was released. It worked at
that time.

It might be that recent changes in components used in the plugin
pipeline have since broken the release. Whilst it would be great if
this never happened we cannot possibly track every single project and
system configuration. Demanding that "0.8 should be fully functional
with current product releases" helps nobody..

Helping us solve the problem will result an increased attention from
the developers. We are not here to provide free support for your
company we are here because we have specific needs and since none of
us are hitting the problem you describe you can be pretty sure our
needs are not aligned with your own (although some people here will
happily focus solely on your problem if you want to pay them).

If you would be so kind as to raise the JIRA issue as you suggest, add
as much detail as you can from your own experiences and the
discussions earlier in this thread, and also attach to it information
about whether you see the same behaviour in 0.9-dev it would be very
helpful.

We are not saying that you should run 0.9-dev (although many people
do), we are asking you to help narrow down whether this is an issue
that affects 0.8 on your system configuration alone, or whether it
still remains in 0.9. The more you help us the more we can help you,
but please don't expect us to fix your problems for you, this is open
source not free labour.
