[Plugin: VoucherPress] Corrupted pdf

Thanks. I’ll try to get the plugin to check for PHP5 when it is activated.

I made a new fresh install and it worked.
Thanks, great work

Hey everyone,

my copy of voucherpress is still not working, even though I did a fresh install a couple of times now.

Any other pointers? I am on GoDaddy as well, and I am running on a Linux server with PHP5 enabled.

When I open any of the corrupt PDF files, I get this:

%PDF-1.7

I have some problems with VoucherPress, when i try to generate my voucher i had a problem:

I’ve started work on version 1.4 which is a major overhaul of VoucherPress. As part of that overhaul I hope to fix these problems, and fix the large memory usage.

However I can’t make promises when that work will be completed.

Hi Chris

I just installed the 1.4 tried running on php5.2 and 5.3 and still getting the corruption message when I try to open the pdf.

When I open it in notepad as you suggest to see if I am running out of memory this is the error I get…

<strong>TCPDF ERROR: </strong>Some data has already been output, can't send PDF file

Which is different to the error in your FAQ.

Thanks
jon

This error happens when another plugin running before VoucherPress outputs some data (even just whitespace). The way to see which plugin is at fault is to turn off all plugins except VoucherPress, then try to download a voucher. If that works it proves VoucherPress is not at fault.

Then turn on your plugins one-by-one and try to download a voucher each time. The plugin you last turned on when the error occurs is the bad one.
