SelectPdf HtmlToImage throwing "Conversion error: Unknown error"

Question

I am using SelectPDF to generate pdfs from a cshtml template. My PDF generates locally, but when on production I get an error.

Stack trace: at SelectPdf.HtmlToImage.?(String A_0, String A_1, String A_2, ?[]& A_3, ?& A_4)\r\n at SelectPdf.HtmlToPdf.?(String A_0, String A_1, String A_2, String A_3, Boolean A_4)\r\n at SelectPdf.HtmlToPdf.ConvertHtmlString(String htmlString)\r\n at Test.GenerateSelectPDF(ReportObj report)\r\n at Test.ReportsController.d__6.MoveNext()

I've ensured that the dll, Select.Pdf.dll and Select.Html.dep are in my bin folder along with Select.Pdf.xml and Select.Tools.dep.

Since I can generate the same report locally I think this is a configuration issue.

Answer 1

Check the execution by increasing the MaxPageLoadTime property of the converter (HTMLToPDF object)

By default, the value is 60 seconds

Example:

converter.Options.MaxPageLoadTime = 240;
