pchPrintWidget SOE An error occurs during print

[LuciHawkins]

Hi Tom,

I randomly receive this error in a little grey box with an ok button:     Error during print!  An error occurs during print   I click on OK and it just returns me to the web app.

When I look in the arcgisoutput folder the mxd and the pdf are there and they have all of the elements.  Any ideas?

I am using the PCHarcgisSOE.jar dated 2/1/2012, the pchprintwidget dated 1/31/2012, Flexviewer 2.5, AGS Api 2.5 dated 11/30/2011, ArcGIS Server 10, ArcGIS Desktop 10 Service Pack 3, and Java version 1.6.0_16


On a side note, where do you change the selection for the type of North Arrow used in the map?

This is an awesome tool and I cant wait for our staff to be able to use it!

Thank you!

I believe I am experiencing the same issue.  Can you get the print to work at all?  Tom had added some functionality that I had requested and it appears something may have broken.  I rolled back to a previous version I was using and do not have the problem now.

I have it working, but sometimes get the error.  I am still testing it, but it seems to happen when I have a layer or layers with a transparency that I set in the flexviewer config.xml file.   Sometimes the legend shows the symbology properly and sometimes it looks odd.  I definitely get the error every time I have more items in my legend than can be displayed on the layout.  I have not figured out how to set the legend not to exceed the size of the layout.

OK..sounds like a bit different error than I am getting.  I have configured the printout legend to leave out just about ALL legend entries...

I tested it some more and it happens with or without layers that have transparency.  It almost seems like a memory problem to me now .  Our webserver has 16 gig ram and 100 gig free on the hard drive. 

I can print a simple background map with 7 layers at 100, 200, or 300 dpi - but when I test it at 600 dpi it either fails and I receive the error or it prints and labels are missing.  If it fails, when I look at the mxd in arcgisoutput, it is fine but PDF or JPG has labels missing.  Most of our map services use some kind of label classes and or scale ranges.

Thanks,

Luci

The attachments show the PDF and the MXD of the simple background map printed to 600 dpi PDF.  You can see the differences in the labels shown in the MXD versus what errored and did not show up in the PDF.

Thanks,

Luci

Could you post the DEBUG serverlog? I will check it.

If the files are written to the output directory, it should be just a small bug 🙂

Hi Tom,

Attached are the last line out of the FB 4.6 console and the last part of the log pertaining to the print job.

Thank you!

I downloaded the new version of pchPrintWidget yesterday afternoon.  I noticed it was not able to bind some objects in my console this morning:

Thanks, Luci

The warnings can be ignored.

Your current problem is coming from the Flex4.6.
In fact I just tested the compilation, not the execution 😞

In PChPrintWidget.mxml, the method "printResult" does get the json string information from the SOE, but seems to parse it not correctly.

Could you replace the method by this code and rerun it in DebugMode:

            private function printResult(searchResult:Object):void {
    if (currentState=="stateSelectExtent")
                 btnPrint2.enabled=true;
    else
     btnPrint.enabled=true;
                var resultString:String=searchResult.toString();
    trace("resultString: "+resultString);
                if(resultString.indexOf("<html>")>-1) {
                    Alert.show(resultString, "Error during print!");
                } else {
                    var obj:Object=com.esri.ags.utils.JSON.decode(searchResult.toString());
     trace("obj.outputFile: "+obj.outputFile);
                    if(obj.outputFile) {
      //todo: preparations for ArcGIS 10.1
      if(obj.outputFile.indexOf("/rest/directories")==0) {
       obj.outputFile = "http://localhost:6080/arcgis"+obj.outputFile;
      }
      trace("obj.outputFile: "+obj.outputFile);
                        navigateToURL(new URLRequest(obj.outputFile));
                    } else {
                        Alert.show(searchResult.toString(), "Error during print!");
                    }
                }
            }

Post me the Debugger console output.
