Hi there!
I’m experiencing some creepy issues using the YiiReport extension (http://www.yiiframework.com/extension/yiireport) to generate Excel files. I’ve coded a PHP file to generate an Excel from a database query and it worked perfectly; I’ve tested it on localhost and worked like charm, uploaded it on the online web and still worked as expected. However, some days ago I’ve tried again to export an Excel from the online web and it crashed! However, on the localhost version it still works as it used to, and the weird thing is that I didn’t even changed anything related to the YiiReport extension (I’ve uploaded new controllers and new extensions, but I haven’t touched anything related to the YiiReport)… The piece of code related to the YiiReport generating the Excel is the following one:
$r = new YiiReport(array('template'=> $template));
$r->load(array(
array(
'id' => 'ong',
'data' => array(
'name' => $nom
)
),
array(
'id'=>$id,
'repeat'=>true,
'data'=>$data,
'minRows'=>2
)
)
);
echo $r->render('excel2007', $filename);
The behaviour on Firefox shows a navigator page complaining that it is unable to find the page I’m trying to access; however, if I comment only the last line (the one that calls the ‘render’ function), the page is shown and no error is reported (though the Excel isn’t generated, of course)… Chrome doesn’t even show an error: just a blank page, and the PHP error log shows no errors nor warnings…
What can be happening? How is it it works on localhost but crashes weirdly when used online? Any can guess what can be happening? I’ve been dealing with it for days and I’m unable to find any clue…
Thanks in advance for your time and effort!
