Crash when generating a pdf

edited May 2007 in General
Delphi 7
RB 9.03
Windows XP Home SP2

I can generate the pdf report on my development box and on one production
box without a problem. However, on a second production box, the
application crashes when it tries to generate the report with
ppReport1.Print. This is a command-line app without a gui. I cannot
recreate this on my development box so I was wondering if anybody had any
ideas.

Thanks,
Tom

    Hi Tom,

    There were no known issue like this with RB 9.03. What is different about
    the machines that run correctly and the one that crashes? Are you able to
    recreate the issue on the machine in question with any report or any small
    example?

    Hey Nico,

    Thanks for replying. I looked into it further after receiving your message
    and found the problem. I am writing the pdf to a file server. The user
    under which the file was being generated did not have proper permissions
    on the fileserver. Writing to the local disk works without a problem. I
    will setup a user on the machine which has the proper permissions on the
    fileserver and I'm sure it will work fine.

    Thanks,
    Tom
