pdf output Joomla 3.10.11 php8.1

ontarget · Jun 5, 2023

Hi
I upgraded this joomla 3 project to run on php8.1 and fabrik 3.10, when i go to output to pdf from list view I get the following error - SEE BELOW
I tried disabling all my calc elements which are loading in the pdf (and have been cast correctly) but the error remains leading to me to believe it may be a core issue?
I'm not quire ready to upgrade this project to joomla4 yet!!

ERROR MESSAGE:
0

Running php8 you must do a GitHub update which contains a lot of php8 fixes.

But the domPDF version in F3.10 (also in the GitHub version) is not php8 ready.

You may exchange the domPDF version yourself. There are some threads, see e.g.
https://fabrikar.com/forums/index.php?threads/dompdf-and-php8.53405/

Thanks - this fixed it:
dompdf and PHP8?

Download dompdf v 1.2.2 - https://github.com/dompdf/dompdf/releases/tag/v1.2.2
Extract the vendor/dompdf/dompdf files and dirs (composer.json / lib / src)
Go to libraries/fabrik/vendor/dompdf/dompdf
Rename current dompdf to _dompdf and upload the new dompdf directory
Test the pdf output - the example i posted above works perfectly.

Added to F3 GitHub https://github.com/Fabrik/fabrik/commit/627128cbdd380108b84c8a9e55a361bd186eebf3

Hi
i have similar error with dompdf joomla 3.10, fabrik 3.10 and php 8.1
error 0 DOMImplementation::createDocumentType(): Passing null to parameter #2 ($publicId) of type string is deprecated 8192
I tried to carry out the previous procedure but it didn't solve it, indeed in the end I got a blank page with ERROR

Lower the J! error reporting level.

J!3 and F3 are reaching the end of life and there's no further support.

pdf output Joomla 3.10.11 php8.1
