SalReportPrintToFile and 0 byte PDFs

[memic]

After calling SalReportPrintToFile() the programm doesn't respond anymore.
I can see the PDF File is generated with 0 byte size. I have to kill the program with task manager afer that.

This happens on some windows servers. On workstations it's always working fine... on some other servers it's also working fine..

I don't have idea how to Debug this. When I call SalReportPrintToFile or SalReportPrintToFileEx it just freezes after creating 0 byte PDF and I don't get any error message.

Running as Administrator doesn't change anything.

Are there known bugs with this function?

Hi,

so far I know is the "Microsoft XPS Document Writer" Printer necessary.
(Starting with TD 6.?. I believe TD 5.? works without this printer)
I know that, because one System Administrator deleted this Printer and after that
my app was also freezing on creating pdfs.

Thanks, I'll check this.

I'm using TD 7.0.2

Thanks Enrico

The Problem was the XPS Writer from Microsoft....

If there is an error in the printer's queue.. all the other jobs aren't being executed... In my case there was a 6 months old error there



After cleaning that up it is working fine.
