Mpdf Error: Unable To Create Output File:
generation is working fine. When I try the following: $pdf->Output('abc.pdf', 'F'); I receive error: FPDF error: Unable to create output file: abc.pdf By changing the Output destination to 'D' or 'I': $pdf->Output('abc.pdf', 'D'); The user is prompted to download the pdf that was generated and is done so successfully (views fine). The error makes me think it is a permissions error but fpdf should have access to write a pdf file to the directory the action is already occurring in correct? mpdf error incorrect output destination Anybody dealt with this before? php fpdf share|improve this question asked Apr 20 '11 at 21:39 JM4 2,9821452104 Is the directory you're trying to write into writable by PHP? They aren't necessarily by default. –Pekka 웃 Apr 20 '11 at 21:42 FPDF doesn`t have to have write permision, can have only read to execute. Review your permissions. –Szymon Lukaszczyk Apr 20 '11 at 21:43 @Szymon: OP is not executing fpdf, just using it, and trying to write out a PDF file generated with FDPF. As such the script DOES have to have write permissions. –Marc B Apr 20 '11 at 21:47 add a comment| 2 Answers 2 active oldest votes up vote 4 down vote accepted If your PHP script is executed from a web-page (served by Apache, it is), then this code will be executed by the Apache (sometimes called www-data) user. So, your Apache user needs to be able to write to the directory you're trying to write to. Typically, you might have to give the write privilege to the other users of your system, using something like this from a command-line : chmod o+w your_directory The software you're using to upload your source files, if doing so using a GUI, should allow you to do that with a couple of chekboxes -- you need to check the "write" checkbox for the "others" users. share|improve this answer answered Apr 20

Instead, revert back to fopen($file_out,'wb'); and make sure that folder permissions are set to 0777, like you did. Also, check if you're using the absolute path in order to write to a file, rather than using relative paths or even worse, URL. So, $file = "/var/www/html/mywebsite/mypdfs/myfile.pdf"; and try if it works. Good luck! share|improve this answer edited May 22 '14 at 9:27 answered May 22 '14 at 9:21 Nikola 1661211 2 Thanks Nikola, already resolved it the same way. –Fahad May 23 '14 at 13:51 You're welcome!

For FPDF to work, there can't be any other output. Things like echo statements elsewhere in your PHP file, anything (including spaces) before or after your tags, etc. will cause that error message.

It's quick & easy. problem - generate dynamic PDF files on the server P: n/a yanlu06 I tried to use HTML2FPDF to generate dynamic local files and save the generated files on the server. I don't know why it gives me the following error message: " Warning: fopen(gen_pdf/gen_pdf/yan.pdf) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /export/home/.../pdfCov/fpdf.php on line 1698 FPDF error: Unable to create output file: gen_pdf/yan.pdf " I cut and paste the following part of the code into a test.php file and run it. the test file can generate text file without any problem: $name="testfile.pdf"; $handle = file_exists('gen_pdf/'.$name); if (!$handle) { $f = fopen('gen_pdf/'.$name,'x+'); } if(!$f) $this->Error('Unable to create output file: '.$name); fwrite ($f,"testtest"); //fwrite($f,$this->buffer,strlen($this->buffer)); //this line is in fpdf.php to generate pdf contents fclose($f) Anyone can help me out? Thanks! Apr 25 '06 #1 Post Reply Share this Question 2 Replies P: n/a kurt.milligan Hi I don't know anything about the particular package you are using, but, looking at your error message and code snippet, I'd guess that the problem is that the gen_pdf/gen_pdf/ directory does not exist. (Your testfile just goes to the gen_pdf/ directory, but the package code appears to be trying to put the file in gen_pdf/gen_pdf/, and if that sub-directory doesn't exist, you will get that kind of fopen error.) HTH -Kurt Apr 26 '06 #2 P: n/a yanlu06 Hi, Kurt, Thank you for your help. It was a dumb mistake while I was trying to test in different ways. I modified the code, but the same error message occurs: Warning: fopen(gen_pdf/yan.pdf) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /export/home.../pdfCov/fpdf.php on line 1698 FPDF error: Unable to create output file: yan.pdf Any idea what is wrong?
