I've have been using EO.PDF successfully on my development web server for some time.
Details:

Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard
IIS 7.5

I have just published by ASP.NET web application to a production server:

Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition Server Pack 2
IIS 6.0

The web application is set up to use Windows Authentication enabled and all other authentication methods disabled.

The Web Page conversion works perfectly on the development web server but on the production web server I get the error:

EO.Pdf.HtmlToPdfException: Failed to convert Url 'http://myproductionserver/scorecard/Scores/Scores.aspx?SupplierCode=9495&PeriodFrom=201304&PeriodTo=201306&PDF=True'.(1102:This is not a valid HTML document.) at EO.Pdf.Internal.de.a(String A_0, Boolean A_1) at EO.Pdf.Internal.de.b(HtmlToPdfOptions A_0, String A_1, Boolean A_2) at EO.Pdf.Internal.de.a(bs A_0) at EO.Pdf.Internal.lr.c.a(Byte[] A_0)


When I configure the production server to use Anonymous Access the conversion to PDF works without error.

However I don't want Anonymous Access on the production webserver web application, the application needs to validate the windows user. Is there something in the setup/config files that IIS 6 requires that IIS 7.5 does not require to enable EO.Pdf to work with only with Windows Authentication.

I'm using EO.Pdf.dll File version 5.0.22.2. (2013)

Thanks.

Hi

The issue is that the application works fine with Windows Authentication enabled on Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard
IIS 7.5
but not on Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition Server Pack 2
IIS 6.0

Can you be a little more clearer why there should be the error when the code to generate the PDF is the same?

Is there a set up issue for Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition Server Pack 2 IIS 6.0 that I'm missing to ensure the PDF generation works.

Thanks

ASP.NET C# Code extract:

sUser = System.Threading.Thread.CurrentPrincipal.Identity.Name;

String thisPage = HttpContext.Current.Request.Url.AbsoluteUri+"&PDF=True";
PdfDocument docPDF = new PdfDocument(); ;

HtmlToPdf.ConvertUrl(thisPage, docPDF);

docPDF.Save(pdfName);

The value of sUser is a valid domain user, the windows log on user. Is this calling thread's user context you refer? In this case can you further look into the error reported:

EO.Pdf.HtmlToPdfException: Failed to convert Url 'http://myproductionserver/scorecard/Scores/Scores.aspx?SupplierCode=9495&PeriodFrom=201304&PeriodTo=201306&PDF=True'.(1102:This is not a valid HTML document.) at EO.Pdf.Internal.de.a(String A_0, Boolean A_1) at EO.Pdf.Internal.de.b(HtmlToPdfOptions A_0, String A_1, Boolean A_2) at EO.Pdf.Internal.de.a(bs A_0) at EO.Pdf.Internal.lr.c.a(Byte[] A_0)

And explain why it is being generated?

Thanks
