Hi there,

I'm testing your library which I find it very nice.

The problem is when I try to use XML.

I've wrote down the following JSP code:

----------------------------- xml2pdf.jsp ---------------------------------

<%@ page import="java.util.*" %>
<%@ page import="java.io.*" %>
<%@ page import="java.awt.Color" %>
<%@ page import="com.merck.ptli.utils.*" %>
<%@ page import="com.lowagie.text.*" %>
<%@ page import="com.lowagie.text.pdf.*" %>
<%@ page import="com.lowagie.text.xml.*" %>
<%@ page import="javax.xml.parsers.*" %>

<html>
<head><title>Making PDF files test</title></head>
<body>

<%
    // Create objects
    Document pdfDoc = new Document(PageSize.A4,48,32,32,32);
    Date docStamp = new Date();
    String docURL = "/documents/pdf/" + docStamp.getTime() + ".pdf";
    String docPath = appinfo.stGetHtmlPath() + docURL;
    PdfWriter.getInstance(pdfDoc, new FileOutputStream(docPath));
    SAXParser xmlParser = SAXParserFactory.newInstance().newSAXParser();
    try {
        xmlParser.parse("http://myserver/xmldata/doctemplates/teste.xml", new SAXiTextHandler(pdfDoc));
    }
    catch (Exception e) {
        out.println("<p>" + e.toString() + "</p>");
        return;
    }

</body>
</html>

The XML file contains the following simple data:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE ITEXT SYSTEM "http://itext.sourceforge.net/itext.dtd">
<itext creationdate="Seg 19 JUL 2004" producer="Carlos Santos">
<chunk font="Helvetica" size="12.0" fontstyle="normal, underline" red="128" green="128" blue="255">XML TEST</chunk>
</itext>

Then, when I try to run the JSP file it takes a long time to execute, but I catch the following exception:

java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out

I tried to use the code, adapted to a JSP servlet, of your example in the tutorial (Chap0701.java and Chap0701.xml) and it did'nt work either.

The same error was caught!

Platform:

OS: Red Hat Linux AS 2.1

Web server: Apache 1.3

Servlet engine: Tomcat 4.0.4
