OBBLM Roster PDF output not working

Whenever anyone in my league tries to create a pdf of their roster we get a problem with the coding, (see image).
I googled the problem and came across a similar problem and it said add a code before this another, but that didn't work. Anyone else have this problem?
I am running the new NAFLM 1.0

I also have problems with the PDF output, but I don´t get this error message. It only says "Error loading the PDF document" . Also NAFLM1.0 , in a test installation.

Looks like the ob_clean() function call on line 994 is returning an error. As the error message has already been sent as output, the attempt to change the header on line 1018 is failing which prevents the PDF generation.
the ob_clean() function empties the current output buffer and the error message is reporting that it is already empty. Not sure why your install should be doing this when other don't but should be resolvable by using ob_get_length() to check if the buffer needs emptied first.
If you're comfortable with it, try replacing line 994 with:
Code: Select all
if (ob_get_length()) {
ob_clean();
}
I'll add this to the
GitHub but that might get you up and running in the short term. I've tested the code on my site and it doesn't cause me any errors, but I can't reproduce your error in the first place.

This error is generally due to a space or line carry in the at the end of one of the php files - ie after the final ?>

Some more details - screenshot.
What I did :
created a fresh installation of NAFLM1.0 in a test webspace
imported the tables from an existing OBBLM 0.95 installation into the empty tables of the fresh installation
Almost everything works fine, except all PDF related stuff (roster, match report).

Does anyone have this error on a hosted site? I'm certain the issue is a space at the end of a file but without being able to see the page I'm shooting blind...

Here´s the test site where the error occurs :
http://munichrumbbl.esy.es/
If needed I could provide any access needed (user account for the obblm, ftp access, database access). Just tell me what you would need. Any help is welcome !

When set to English, the error is "Failed to load PDF document"

Just FYI, at this current moment in time. This code works for my problem. Thank you again, Shteve0

Problem is not code specific, it is site specific. Meaning, exported everything from website A, imported in website B and problem vanished.

You're welcome, but I think it's Vanguard who's earned your thanks

Ah, but you persuaded me to get involved in the first place, so the credit is all yours.
