Hair ripping time

[Theresa Jayne Forster]

Ok I cannot see what is wrong here, 

A test app does this 

 

            Fop fop =
fopFactory.newFop(MimeConstants.MIME_PDF,useragent,out);

            TransformerFactory factory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();

            Source xslt = new StreamSource(new File("C:/sample.xsl"));

            Transformer transformer = factory.newTransformer(xslt);

 

And works fine, 

The app I am working on does this

 

            Fop fop =
fopFactory.newFop(MimeConstants.MIME_PDF,useragent,out);

            TransformerFactory factory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();

            Transformer transformer = factory.newTransformer(new
StreamSource(inputFO));

 

And it immediately jumps out when it hits the newTransformer() line..

In the first it's an xslt, in the second it's a FO file, do I have to do
something different for that?

 

WTF aren't these the same, and why does so much of FOP jump out without even
trying to give debug output? Or is there a way of doing that?

 

 

Kindest regards
