I am running Reportico 6.0.11 on a VPS running Ubuntu 18.04. I am able to run HTML reports. When I try to generate pdf report I get a POP up window saying Notice and the whole window is Blank. I have tried setting the PhantomJS path, I have tried to use TCPDF as the pdf engine but the symptom has not changed.
Could someone give me some ideas of where to look ?

Can you run

composer run-script post-install-cmd

and check you have under your reportico folder an executable bin/phantoms?

If you have then have you got access to the browser debug console?

If you are ok to debug the flow of javascript i would be insterested if you open in source window reportico.js and put a breakpoint around line 1053 in function ajaxFileDownload .. should look like below ..

function ajaxFileDownload(url, data, expandpanel, reportico_container) {

    ajaxextra = getYiiAjaxURL();
    if ( ajaxextra != "" ) {
        url += ajaxextra
        url +=  "&reportico_padding=1";
    }
    else
        url +=  "?reportico_padding=1";

There is an ajax post there and id be interested in what it returns. Let me know if you need help with this

Hi there for info are you using Reportico as standalone ( ie not within framework like joomla,Laravel etc) and which version?? Reportico 6?

There could be memory constraints

Questions :-
How long does it run before before terminating?

Perhaps, assuming you are in standalone mode, lets start by editing the file run.php and you will two lines :-

ini_set("memory_limit", "100M");
ini_set("max_execution_time", "90);

You could perhaps try increasing these values to give more time and more memory to the process?

Let me know if that helps
