    Hello,

    I've downloaded the trial version 'phpdocx-trial-basic-7.5' and I'm receiving the following error when I try to create a word document from scratch follow your installation tutorial.

    Fatal error: Uncaught Exception: Error while trying to open the (base) template as a zip file in /Users/adamsteff/Development/sites/producerAPI/phpdocx/classes/AutoLoader.inc(62) : eval()'d code on line 100

    Exception: Error while trying to open the (base) template as a zip file in /Users/adamsteff/Development/sites/producerAPI/phpdocx/classes/AutoLoader.inc(62) : eval()'d code on line 100.

    require_once $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] .'/phpdocx/classes/CreateDocx.inc';
$docx = new CreateDocx();
$docx->addText('Hello world!');
$docx->createDocx('hello_world');

    All the PHPDocX configuration tests came back successful.

    • OK Zip support is enabled.
    • OK DOM support is enabled.
    • OK XML support is enabled.
    • OK Tidy support is enabled.
    • OK mbstring is enabled.

    I've also run sudo chmod -R 777 on the phpdocx directory so I have read/write access to all the files.

    Any help would be much appreciated, as I'm wanting to test the API so we can purchase it.

    Hello,

    The trial package uses an internal DOCX template (phpdocxBaseTemplate.docx) as base template to generate new documents. This file is available in the templates folder of the package.

    Please check that you have copied all contents of the package and the server has read access to them. We recommend you to to download the package again, extract it and without changing anything run one of the included samples using PHP CLI mode (Core/addText/sample_1.php is the most simple one).

    Regards.
