Robert GeiteSubject: Problem with FOP plugin (SS2008)
Author: Robert Geite

I haven't used SS2008 for over a year, and had to do a new clean install, I must have forgotten how to configure FOP properly.

Every time I run a scenario which is configured to use FOP as post-processor I am prompted to "Install additional components": "In order to activate the Apache FOP, Stylus Studio needs to download...".
I press OK, after a progress bar is sliding around for a while. After that I get a Vista-security alert that an unidentified program wants access (StylusAdmin.exe) to run, and I Allow it to do so.
This immediately (seems like StylusAdmin.exe works very fast, or not at all) leeds to a PDF file of zero size.

In the output window the following error is present:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/fop/apps/Fop
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.fop.apps.Fop
at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(Unknown Source)
... etc
Could not find the main class: org.apache.fop.apps.Fop. Program will exit.
Exception in thread "main" ...post processing finished

I tried copying a FOP installation to the folder plugins\FOP, but with the same result.

It's probably something simple I forgot, but what?

Hi Robert,

We tried to reproduce the problem without success.

Could you please verify that Windows Firewall is not blocking either struzzo.exe or StylusAdmin.exe?

Hope this helps

I turned off my firewall but it still will not work.
There is no error message, and StylusAdmin.exe requires my permission to run, which I allow.

Is there any other (manual?) way to add the FOP functionality?

Lacking FOP I use RenderX which works great, but the results differ slightly from those of FOP, which means I need to test more outside of SS2008.

Try unzipping the attached archive into

<Stylus Studio Folder>\bin\Plugins\Fop
