cfdocument not working with ColdFusion 8 0 1 update

Hello:     I am attempting to create a PDF document on a server that was recently updated to CF 8.0.1, and cannot create a basic pdf. Code: <cfdocument format="PDF" filename="test.pdf" overwrite="true">test</cfdocument> Error: An exception occurred when performing document processing. The cause of this exception was that: java.lang.AbstractMethodError: coldfusion.document.DocumentExporter.export([Lice/storm/Viewport;Lcoldfusion/document/spi/DocumentProperties;Lcoldfusion/document/spi/HeaderFooterContentProvider;Lcoldfusion/document/spi/HeaderFooterContentProvider;Lcoldfusion/document/spi/PageNoCallbackHandler;Ljava/net/URL;)V. (I can provide stack trace if that helps) Environment: Server Product       ColdFusion Version     8,0,1,195765 Edition     Standard Operating System     UNIX OS Version     2.6.9-67.0.1.ELsmp (CentOs) Unfortunately, I have never attempting using <cfdocument> before on this server, so I cannot confirm/deny that this error is due to CF 8.0.1 updater.  I have checked permissions, and everything looks good. Any help would be appreciated! Brian

>>Anyone find a solution on this?  I'm having the same problem.... > >Can you please go through the entire thread? You will have the solution. > >~D I did read the entire thread.  This doesn't solve my problem though.  I'm not on CF 8.0.1 and I tried removing the CF hotfix 3 and I still have the same problem.   A simple PDF cannot be created with just this code: <cfdocument format="PDF" filename="#expandPath('tempfiles/')#mytest.pdf"> This my test PDF. </cfdocument> I know it's not a permissions issue.  I'm trying to get a solution here, so can someone please help? Thanks, Dave

Hello Brian Love,       I have tested cfdocument with CF8.0.1 update on RedHat Linux environment and it created pdf fine. Could you send me the stack trace and cf server logs. my id --> sankaram@adobe.com  (Though CF is not supported on cent OS , I don't see any reason which cfdoc doesn't work) Thnx Sankaram.

Hi, AbstractMethodError can come only when there is incompatibility between two classes which in this case means, that you have a hotfix applied which is no longer compatible. Since you have upgraded to 801, you can remove the hotfix and you should be good to go. Please let me know if that works for you. Thanks & Regards, Rupesh Adobe ColdFusion Team.

Rupesh, To confirm, you not saying he should un-install the 8.01 updater, but instead another ColdFusion Hotfix he had manually applied before the updater was released.  Is that correct? Thanks. ~Brad Hi, AbstractMethodError can come only when there is incompatibility between two classes which in this case means, that you have a hotfix applied which is no longer compatible.

I'm not Rupesh, but yes, that's what he's saying. You simply have to delete the JAR file containing the hotfix from the /lib directory.

Folks:   Just to confirm this for anyone else interested on the list.  Yes, this did resolve the issues I was having with cfdocument.  After removing the hotfix lib, everything worked great.  Thanks for all the help, I would have never even thought about this....
