Hi,
I have the following scenario and something is not working correctly and need some ideas of what may be the issue:
Currently, I have Apex 4.2 running on a database 11g and using HTTP server with mod_plsql. I installed and configured ORDS 2.0.10.289.08.09 and deployed on a WebLogic Server 10.3 to use it as my PDF Print Server.
On Apex, if I specify “Oracle Apex Listener” as the Print Server and access my applications using ORDS as the listener, I am able to generate a valid PDF. However, if I configure my Print Server as follow based on this thread (https://community.oracle.com/message/13212045#13212045) and try to access my applications using the HTTP server, it’s not generating a valid PDF (Failed to load PDF document):
Print Server: External (Apache FOP)
Print Server Protocol: HTTP
Print Server Host Address: SERVER_NAME
Print Server Port: 7001
Print Server Script: /_/fop2pdf
I also added the entry key "misc.enableOldFOP" in "defaults.xml" of ORDS configuration as specified on the Oracle White Paper: Creating Custom PDF Reports with Oracle Application Express and the APEX Listener (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex/learnmore/custom-pdf-reports-1953918.pdf)
Please let me know if additional information is need.
Thank you,
Erick
