PDF Content plugin causes blank page without error

[d.rieger]

Hi,
I encountered an enormous issue trying to get PhocaGallery (2.8.1) and the PhocaPdf content plugin (1.0.6) working together in Joomla 1.5, because the activated pdf plugin breaks the gallery. It showed a blank page whithout throwing any error or even notice - just no output at all. As soon as I deactivated the pdf content plugin, my menu link directing to a PhocaGallery category listing worked again.
I think that I have found the "broken" part in the code, it's in 'plugins/system/phocapdfcontent.php' somewhere around line 100:

Code: Select all

JResponse::setBody($bodySite);

I changed it to:

Code: Select all

if(! empty($bodySite)) {
	JResponse::setBody($bodySite);
}

I do not understand Joomla at all, but it solved the problem.

Hi, try to disable displaying of plugin code in content - in PDF - see Phoca PDF - Phoca PDF Content Plugin parameters.

Hi,

I just installed the component and plugin. The first problem I had was the same as you. A white page after enabling the plugin.
I changed the code as you suggested and now the site works again, but the PDF icon is the old one, not the Phoca one.
What am I missing?? Why doesn't it work?

(Joomla 1.5.25)

Hi, if you enable php error reporting, do you get some error message?

Hi,
i have the same problems of iplanells:
"I just installed the component and plugin. The first problem I had was the same as you. A white page after enabling the plugin.
I changed the code as you suggested and now the site works again, but the PDF icon is the old one, not the Phoca one.
......."

I have enabled php error reporting but i didn't see errors to video neither in the logs.

I have installed component 1.0.9 and pdf plugin 1.0.6 for joomla 1.5.26 with php 5.2.6.
Have i forgotten something? There are intermediate steps?
