I was following along with Ryan Bates' really great railscast on PDFkit when I ran into a few problems installing wkhtmltopdf ( I also posted about my problem in the episode comments). I was wondering if anyone else has experienced similar problems or has any clues as to what is going wrong. It is a rails 3 app, 1.9.2 running on snow leopard. I use rvm
I added PDFkit to my gemfile and the appropriate config options to my application.rb. I then tried to see if a could get a pdf version of one of the pages in my app and I got the following action controller exception No wkhtmltopdf executable found at /usr/local/bin/wkhtmltopdf >> Install wkhtmltopdf by hand or try running `pdfkit --install-wkhtmltopdf` I tried installing using the command pdfkit --install-wkhtmltopdf this didn't go smoothly and I had to add the directory and change some permissions but I got it installed. I'm still getting a permission denied exception but as far as I can tell the file is rwx for all It kind of feels like I have drifted down the wrong path completely with this. If anyone has any pointers they would be greatly appreciated -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
