After uploading a ppt and pptx file, I'm finding that I cannot open them -- I get a DELETED image on the whiteboard instead.
Digging deeper, I see that the file has uploaded, but that no other part of the conversion has occurred. The logs show the file being uploaded, and the conversion command executing: DEBUG 12-04 12:19:21.688 ProcessHelper.java 188867 104 org.apache.openmeetings.util.process.ProcessHelper [http-nio-0.0.0.0-5080-exec-6] - START doJodConvert ################# DEBUG 12-04 12:19:21.688 ProcessHelper.java 188867 105 org.apache.openmeetings.util.process.ProcessHelper [http-nio-0.0.0.0-5080-exec-6] - java -Doffice.home=/usr/lib64/libreoffice -cp /opt/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4/lib/commons-io-1.4.jar -cp /opt/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4/lib/juh-3.2.1.jar -cp /opt/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4/lib/jurt-3.2.1.jar -cp /opt/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4/lib/ridl-3.2.1.jar -cp /opt/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4/lib/unoil-3.2.1.jar -cp /opt/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4/lib/commons-cli-1.1.jar -cp /opt/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4/lib/json-20090211.jar -cp /opt/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4/lib/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4.jar -jar /opt/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4/lib/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4.jar /opt/red5303/webapps/openmeetings/uploadtemp/files/9f36f633d4c43988521833c9265ac935.pptx /opt/red5303/webapps/openmeetings/upload/files/9f36f633d4c43988521833c9265ac935/9f36f633d4c43988521833c9265ac935.pdf DEBUG 12-04 12:19:21.688 ProcessHelper.java 188867 106 org.apache.openmeetings.util.process.ProcessHelper [http-nio-0.0.0.0-5080-exec-6] - END doJodConvert ################# DEBUG 12-04 12:19:21.923 ProcessHelper.java 189102 148 org.apache.openmeetings.util.process.ProcessHelper [http-nio-0.0.0.0-5080-exec-6] - exitVal: 1 but note the time fields -- it is exiting milliseconds after starting. When I execute that command manually, it states that the input file is missing -- likely because it's looking in the uploadtemp folder and not the final destination of '/opt/red5303/webapps/openmeetings/upload/files/9f36f633d4c43988521833c9265ac935' Is this a bug? Should the converter be looking for the source file at a different location? When I adjust the command to find the source file where it currently resides, I eventually get a timeout exception instead, and this takes a LONG time to happen -- not in the milliseconds range. This is the modified command: java -Doffice.home=/usr/lib64/libreoffice -cp /opt/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4/lib/commons-io-1.4.jar -cp /opt/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4/lib/juh-3.2.1.jar -cp /opt/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4/lib/jurt-3.2.1.jar -cp /opt/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4/lib/ridl-3.2.1.jar -cp /opt/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4/lib/unoil-3.2.1.jar -cp /opt/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4/lib/commons-cli-1.1.jar -cp /opt/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4/lib/json-20090211.jar -cp /opt/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4/lib/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4.jar -jar /opt/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4/lib/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4.jar /opt/red5303/webapps/openmeetings/upload/files/9f36f633d4c43988521833c9265ac935/9f36f633d4c43988521833c9265ac935.pptx /opt/red5303/webapps/openmeetings/upload/files/9f36f633d4c43988521833c9265ac935/9f36f633d4c43988521833c9265ac935.pdf Assuming that the pptx file just isn't convertible with this system, I uploaded a ppt file instead. Same initial results -- immediate exit from the conversion program with DELETED shown on the whiteboard. However, when I manually run the command pointing to where the source file is actually located, this time the pdf file is successfully created: java -Doffice.home=/usr/lib64/libreoffice -cp /opt/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4/lib/commons-io-1.4.jar -cp /opt/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4/lib/juh-3.2.1.jar -cp /opt/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4/lib/jurt-3.2.1.jar -cp /opt/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4/lib/ridl-3.2.1.jar -cp /opt/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4/lib/unoil-3.2.1.jar -cp /opt/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4/lib/commons-cli-1.1.jar -cp /opt/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4/lib/json-20090211.jar -cp /opt/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4/lib/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4.jar -jar /opt/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4/lib/jodconverter-core-3.0-beta-4.jar /opt/red5303/webapps/openmeetings/upload/files/34c77a6ad9556313215a9368f9320f9e/34c77a6ad9556313215a9368f9320f9e.ppt /opt/red5303/webapps/openmeetings/upload/files/34c77a6ad9556313215a9368f9320f9e/34c77a6ad9556313215a9368f9320f9e.pdf Of course, that still doesn't help get it to show up on the whiteboard, because the corresponding swf file wasn't also created. I should note that uploading pdf files into OM works correctly -- they correctly appear on the whiteboard, so at least that part of the workflow is working properly.
