Hi, I'm using the corporate licence (version 4.5-ns). I have LibreOffice installed in /home/apache/LibreOffice-4.4.2/, i've set the method and path in phpdocxconfig.ini. I've also set the variable "temp_path" to /home/apache/phpdocx/tmp/ in this config file. When i run the sample_1.php (transformDocument) from CLI, it generates the PDF. Now, in my own application, i'm generating a docx from a template and store it in /home/apache/phpdocx/my_generated_docx.docx. Then, i'm calling transformDocument like this : $transform = new Phpdocx\Create\CreateDocx(); $transform->enableCompatibilityMode(); $transform->transformDocument("/home/apache/phpdocx/my_generated_docx.docx","/home/apache/phpdocx/my_generated_docx_result.pdf", null, array("debug"=> true)); When i run this code, it generates the docx file but it doesn't output the PDF (i also see a file like "documentXXXXXX" in the temp_path). I've added a debug line in TransformDocAdvLibreOffice.inc just before the passthru (line ~82) to see what command is actually executed : PhpdocxLogger::logger('EXECUTE : '.($libreOfficePath . ' --invisible --convert-to ' . $extension . ' ' . $docSource) , 'info'); which gives me something like this : /home/apache/LibreOffice-4.4.2/program/soffice --invisible --convert-to pdf /home/apache/phpdocx/my_generated_docx.docx and if i execute it myself in CLI, it does output the PDF correctly. So, i'm guessing it's a permission issue with apache (the server is running with apache user, and the CLI is in root) but i can't figure out which one. Do you have any ideas ? Here are some more details : - output log : [phpdocx_logger][INFO ] Importing styles from an external docx. [phpdocx_logger][INFO ] Set DOCX name to: /home/apache/phpdocx/my_generated_docx. [phpdocx_logger][INFO ] Set DOCX name to: /home/apache/phpdocx/my_generated_docx. [phpdocx_logger][INFO ] Remove existing template tags.
