[iText-questions] Servlets

[David Gonz�lez Blanco]

Hi everybody,
 

I'm trying to use iText on a servlet of my project and i've a little problem.

 

I've included iText.jar in my classpath, and my code is:

---

package PDF;

import java.io.PrintWriter;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.File;
import java.util.Date;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
import javax.servlet.*;
import com.lowagie.text.*;
import com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfWriter;
import com.lowagie.text.html.HtmlWriter;

public class GeneraInforme extends javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet {

 public void doGet(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request, javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse response) throws javax.servlet.ServletException, java.io.IOException {
  performTask(request, response);
 }

 public void doPost(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request, javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse response) throws javax.servlet.ServletException, java.io.IOException {
  performTask(request, response);
 }

 public void performTask(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request, javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse response)
 {
       
   String presentationtype = request.getParameter("presentationtype");

          // step 1: creation of a document-object
         Document document = new Document();

   response.setContentType("application/pdf");
    ...( Rest   of code)...
 }
}

---

When i'm going to create the document it crashes (what appears bolded in the code).

The error is:
