FPDF error: Some data has already been output, can't send PDF file

[demielune]

Bonsoir/Bonjour,

Que signifie : " FPDF error: Some data has already been output, can't send PDF file " lorsque l'on est dans la partie client (connecté avec un compte fictif donc en tant que client) et que l'on veut afficher la facture ?

Google {(mon ami } traduit cela par : " FPDF error: Certaines données ont déjà été la production, ne peuvent pas envoyer de PDF fichier ".

Merci de vos avis éclairés !

[cavaddu]

j'ai le même probleme.... avec mes clients qui ne peuvent pas ouvrir leur fichier pdf...
par contre du coté du back office tout est OK ! les fichiers pdf s'ouvre correctement et je fais un mail au client avec facture en piece jointe...

mais je cherche toujours...
quelqu'un a une idée !!!

le message apparait à la tentative d'ouverture du fichier pdf de la part du client à partir de son compte...

Hello,
I have checked pdf-invoice.php and admin/pdf.pdf and find out there is no "include(dirname(__FILE__).'/init.php');" in admin/pdf.php.
So I comment it and it works !! But I don't know if it's a good solution ...

[peacheaven]

Hi SuzieSuzy,

I still don't get it,could you please more specific?
maybe you can tell which line before and after your comment on it?

[SuzieSuzy]

Hello,

the file "pdf-invoice.php" is in the root of the website, just change line 4 :

<?php

include(dirname(__FILE__).'/config/config.inc.php');
include(dirname(__FILE__).'/init.php');

in

<?php

include(dirname(__FILE__).'/config/config.inc.php');
//include(dirname(__FILE__).'/init.php');

Hope it works for you :-)

this usually caused by some whitespace after the closing php ?> tag

check you files for any extra line breaks and whitespace after the closing php ?> taG

Hi Christ,

which files should I check?
thanks in advance

[SuzieSuzy]

Perhaps you have to configure :
ADMIN > Preferences > PDF > encoding : iso-8859-1
ADMIN > Preferences > PDF > font : courier

It stills working for me ...

[peacheaven]

Hi SuzieSuzy,

I did it but still error with FPDF
thanks for reply anyway:)

[SuzieSuzy]

You're welcome, sorry it doesn't work. However I'm looking for another solution, I think mine isn't "clean". So good luck !

[kpince]

I had the same problem. I fixed it by putting @ before the two ini_set lines in the fpdf file.

Oh my god! Thank you so much. I've been losing sleep over the error & u solved it for me! Mine was a little different error, it kept saying file was damaged & couldn't be opened.

[poplol]

I had this problem before for the front end and fixed it by doing

function Output($name='', $dest='')
{

   ob_clean();

on line 993 in the tools/fpdf/fpdf.php

ob_clean basically cleans all the content & headers from a page.



But now I have a problem when i try to export a invoice from the Backend it says the same FPDF error: Some data has already been output, can’t send PDF file .

Any one have any solution to this

It works!!!! God bless you!! thanks for sharing this information a year a go!!!!

[Icedocemile]

It works for me too !
And I have ps version 1.3.2.

Hello,

you can active debugging mode in config/config.inc.php file to show the real error message.

in the config.inc.php file put display_errors to on

@ini_set('display_errors', 'on');

Then real php error would be something like that

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/ftp/www/tools/fpdf/font/helveticab.php:31)

which indicates that line 31 of helveticab.php (it's just an example) is wrong.

You have just characters after the "?>" php end tag.

look at FDF FAQ

Correct the file deleting character after php end tag and all works fine.

Your solution with ob_clean worked for me in FO, but not in BO. But I think I have found my source of error and I have a solution for it. I used dreamweaver to edit my pages, never had problems with it. Now I tried another program called phase5. When I edit a php-file, it seems that phase5 deletes the php end tag (?>) at the very end of the source code. The error message in BO said that something was wrong with my cookie.php. I edited this file for a few days ago, to set the cookie session time from 20 days to 3 hours - with phase5. So I opened the file in dreamweaver and voila, no php end tag. After I added the end tag to it - it worked.

Thanks a lot, this solution works great.

Just a mention, in PS version 1.4.7, replace line 994 

{

 with  

{ ob_clean();

Hi,

I tried your solution but it doesn´t work. My php version is 5.4. PS version is 1.473. Worked until a few days ago... Any idea?

Thanks

[tuk66]

What have changed a few days ago? Any hosting changes? PHP version?

[hernanlr]

Hi,

The php version, to 5.4. Now rolled back to 5.27 and the pdf print works again.

Thanks!

Hernán
