I installed the PDF Report Server App on my linux box.

Installed the following packages :

fontconfig
libxrender1
libxinerama1

Enabled the app in alert_actions.conf

Set the Link hostname in Email Alert Settings

The staus page shows the following error inside the blue box: Failed to load PDF Document

Running the command- sudo /opt/splunk/etc/apps/pdfserver/bin/firefox-i386/firefox gave the following error :

firefox-i386/firefox-bin: error while loading shared libraries: /opt/splunk/etc/apps/pdfserver/bin/firefox-i386/dep/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0: file too short

When i try to preview the pdf in Actions--> Schedule pdf delivery.., for my view (built using advanced xml), i get the following error:

An error occurred while rendering the PDF: PDF server at /services/pdfserver/renderpdf returned error: Failed to generate a report using Firefox: Failed to start: Check that all Firefox dependencies are met

Increased the firefox_timeout in the pdf_server.conf

Hi,

If the lib files are empty then you have the same issue I encountered.

Try to reinstall the app through the tar command (tar xvzf pdfserver.tar.gz) and restart splunk. Now the files should be linked to the correct libraries and everything should be ok.

I don't know why but the installation of the app through the web manager doesn't work correctly.

This is what I was saying. The lib files are not linked correctly to each other.

Your files should be :

You should try to :

  • uninstall pdfreport server
  • check the checksum of your pdfserver.tar.gz file
  • reinstall pdfreport server with the command tar xvzf pdfserver.tar.gz in etc/apps

This worked for me.

Great !
I think this is a bug. I reported it to Splunk support.

And it worked like a charm. Thanks a lot. Is that a bug?

Hi,

If the lib files are empty then you have the same issue I encountered.

Try to reinstall the app through the tar command (tar xvzf pdfserver.tar.gz) and restart splunk. Now the files should be linked to the correct libraries and everything should be ok.

I don't know why but the installation of the app through the web manager doesn't work correctly.

Weird. Could you give us the result of : ls -l /opt/splunk/etc/apps/pdfserver/bin/firefox-i386/dep/lib/
