Installing/registering pinPDF
Reply Quote
Dear support.

I have an issue with pinPDF. The company I work at has bought pinPDF and we have installed it on our server to use it from (classic) ASP. However, since we installed it we have had to re-install it twice, because it stopped working. It is like the trial has expired or something, but that is very strange, because we have a valid serial number. After a re-installation it works like a charm again.

The manual says that, to install pinPDF, you have to use the LicenseKey property, we do that. However, there is also a tool in the installer-package called "pinPDFValidation.exe". If I run that, it says that the trial has expired?!?!

Do we use the correct way to enable the registered version of pinPDF?

Thanks,

Erik

Hi Erik,

if you have set the license key and if it works then don't mind the validation exe.

Hi Hans-Peter,

Sorry I am getting back to you on this so late, but I had to wait for the problem to occur again.
I have an error-message now I can give you. What happens is this:

The component works an then all of a sudden we get an empty screen instead of a PDF.
When we check the value of objPDF.Process() it is FALSE and the errormessage says: "pdf component not found !"

The strange thing is, this happened just now and a a little while later we got to see PDF's again, without changing anything in the code. We have just added some debug-code and removed it again. The page is used by a lage customer of ours, and I know today they are very busy creating PDF's, so I'm wondering now if this could happen when a lot of people are generating PDF's at the same time. Is that possible?

Erik

Hi Erik,

it seems that the instance of the component can not be created which could be a ressource or memory problem.

Do you use ActiveX or .Net ?

Hi Hans-Peter,

We use classic ASP, so ActiveX.
Our server has minimal CPU and memory load, so I doubt resources would be a problem. Is there a way to increase memory to the component in any way?

Thanks,

Erik

Hi Eric,

do you set the instance to nothing after usage ?

set objPDF = nothing
