Hi Milbo,

sorry but there is no preview of the bill. Normal Joomla page with blank content area is shown.

No error message.

cu, diri

Sorry, Milbo, I'm getting the same error.  I even went back and did a fresh install with Joomla 3.9 and VM 3.4.2.  I just installed VM 3.4.3.9989 and am getting this:

Code Select Expand

vmError: vmPdf: For the pdf, you must install the tcpdf library at {root}/html/libraries/tcpdf

Hi Milbo, sorry same here, joomla 3.9, VM 3.4.3.9989 , php7.2, no error message and no pdf in backend preview, just a blank screen. Also in the front end after preview invoice and select pdf preview, this comes up..... 0 - Class 'vmDefines' not found

vmError: vmPdf: For the pdf, you must install the tcpdf library at {root}/html/libraries/tcpdf

Did you eventually forget to install the com_tcpdf_1.0.5.zip included in the com_virtuemart.3.4.3.9989_package_or_extract.zip?

Strange error message:

vmError: vmPdf: For the pdf, you must install the tcpdf library at {root}/html/libraries/tcpdf

The correct url should be:

Code Select Expand

libraries/vendor/tecnickcom/tcpdf

If VM expects TCPDF to be located at '{root}/html/libraries/tcpdf' then it surely does not help to install it at the correct location. But You can always try.

getting a bit circular here... there is another thread with full explanation

the error is thrown ONLY when the "test/preview" invoice button is used..  AND the error message is wrong and the view is broken
This all needs to be fixed but was over looked on this (for devs) rarely used function - or there is a case for just removing the confusing function

the function is broken but as discussed it is not a very useful view anyway .. if u want to test / preview your invoices then make a purchase and look at the invoice!!!!

Delete and adjust and re status to produce another

Did you eventually forget to install the com_tcpdf_1.0.5.zip included in the com_virtuemart.3.4.3.9989_package_or_extract.zip?

I installed it about 10 times over two different sites, including full Virtuemart installs and just com_tcpdf_1.0.5.zip, and no luck.

The correct url should be:

libraries/vendor/tecnickcom/tcpdf
