Hey, I have put my site online and sometimes the site crashes when I want to create a pdf file. But when I reboot the server it works again. It crashes on: margin = PDF::Writer.cm2pts(1) Or pdf = PDF::Writer.prepress(:paper => "A4", :orientation => :landscape, :left_margin => margin, :right_margin => margin, :top_margin => 0, :bottom_margin => 0) Most of the time it is after the process: I have a page with a list of users, I display the info from the database (tables users and clients) like for the clientname => Clientname: <%= user.client.name %> But in the early stages of the site some users didnt have clients, so I got an nil error on the page. After that i wanted to create a pdf (total different section on the site), and get the errors. Anyone has any problem with this also?? And can help me?? Thanks in advance. Nick

Hi ! 2005/12/5, Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>:> On 12/5/05, Brutyn Nick <brutyn_nick@hotmail.com> wrote: > > the wierd thing is it works sometimes sometimes not when i got an error > > > NoMethodError in Geotags#print_tag > > undefined method `cm2pts' for PDF::Writer:ClassOne thing I found is that PDF::Writer and ActiveRecord require different versions of Transaction::Simple. If you're running on Rails Edge, remove the simple.rb file from active_record/lib/vendor. Then, get Transaction::Simple 1.3.0, unpack into vendor, move lib/* to vendor/, and finally, require Transaction::Simple before PDF::Writer and ActiveRecord in config/environment.rb Not a simple workaround, but the best I found. Now, I have everything working. If this is of some help to you, please say so. I'll write an article for my blog about this.
