[Users] PrintLayout and config.yaml issue

[Shafey]

I am struggling to create print layout page with map fish print. 

I had setup  mapfish print servlet in Apache tomcat6, When I try to make any
change in the config.yaml its always crash and can not provide me print
capabilities.

Can some one tell me how can I make change in the config.yaml to make header
, scale bar , legend add in the print layout.

 

Regards,

Subject: Re: [Users] printProvider question - all problems solved

 

I have posted two questions recently concerning the printProvider and am
posting what I have learned for those that may follow and make some of the
same stupid mistakes I have made.

 

On the front end I did not know if printProvider and printPage were going to
provide me with a nicely formatted output of headers, map, attributes and
footer.

The proof of concept went well and config.yaml wasn't difficult to figure
out and I was very happy with the results. All my development was done with
firefox using the printProvider GET method. I then realized that IE 7 & 8
versions had trouble parsing my urls and the GET url could easily become too
long.

 

I got stuck implementing  the POST method, because of proxy problems, until
Matt Priour pointed me to override-ext-ajax.js. I did not know that module
existed. Including it in the geoext build was simple with the builder tool
http://localhost/GeoExt-1.0/docs/builder/v1.0.html which I was also unaware
of.

 

The issues I had with using the <script> tag to load info.json or using the
printProvider url: and autoload: did not have anything to do with geoext or
the geoserver print module. They were caused by  a firewall setting and the
way I had set up apache proxy settings. Those issues did not affect my other
mapping apps but they came to light when trying to get the printing to work.

 

I would like to thank the geoext developers for such a great tool. Being
able to produce a nicely formatted map is a significant step for me in
continuing to develop our mapping apps with open source tools rather than
former, current and future esri options.
