Rails 3 + PDFKit Problem: Permission denied (Errno::EACCES)
I would like to use PDFKit in my Rails 3 application on Windows.
I installed wkhtmltopdf
and the pdfkit
gem.
Here is the code that I use to create the PDF:
class JobsController <开发者_Python百科 ApplicationController
def create_pdf_invoice
kit = PDFKit.new("<h1>Hello</h1><p>This is PDF!!!</p>", :page_size => "A4")
file = kit.to_file("my_first_pdf") # Error issued here!!
...
end
end
I got the following error:
Errno::EACCES in JobsController#create_pdf_invoice
Permission denied - "c:\Program Files\wkhtmltopdf" "--page-size" "A4"
"--margin-top" "0.75in" "--margin-right" "0.75in"
"--margin-bottom" "0.75in" "--margin-left" "0.75in"
"--encoding" "UTF-8" "--quiet" "-" "my_first_pdf"
Any ideas ?
You will get that error if you point to a folder and not the actual file (.exe)
I got PDFkit to run on windows like this:
PDFKit.configure do |config|
config.wkhtmltopdf = 'C:\wkhtmltopdf\wkhtmltopdf.exe'
end
