I am testing on a VM server running Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise Edition with SP2. VM is running 32 bit.
The prod servers we would look to run on are 64 bit running Windows Server 2003 R2, with one having SP1 and one with SP2. Neither is a VM.
Hi,
We have finally found a fix for this error
System.IO.FileNotFoundException: The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E)
For some reason the OpenOffice installation has not registered the GAC assemblies properly.
To work around this issue add the path to OpenOffice to your PATH environment variable.

You can add it to the system environment variables or the specificu user that runs the Conversion Service.
Thanks!

I added a path in the environment variables with no success, so I also added a path under the user: "C:\Program Files\OpenOffice.org 2.4\program;" with no success. The assemblies are both in the global GAC and the local assembly for OpenOffice. I still receive the no module found error log.
Hi
Did you restart the service after updating the PATH environment variable?
Thanks
Yes, I restarted the Bamboo services and also restarted the server. I then uploaded a new document and ran it again. I still receive the error about the module. Are there supposed to be any OpenOffice services in Services?
There are no OpenOffice services.
Can you drag the assemblies from the %PROGRAMFILES%\OpenOffice.org 2.4\program\assembly folder into the GAC (%windir%\assembly) ?
I dragged the assemblies from OpenOffice and replaced the ones that were already in the GAC. I get the following now:
Can you delete all cli_xxx assemblies from our bin folder (%PROGRAMFILES%\Bamboo Solutions Corporation\Bamboo.Conversion.Service\bin) and see if you get a different error again? Don't forget to restart the service.
If you still get an error try to copy these assemblies cli_xxx from OpenOffice.org 2.4\program\assembly into our bin.
I still don't understand why the assembly is not loadedfrom the GAC, but we might have to repair it by using gacutil.
Here's some more info on the error we are seeing. http://blogs.msdn.com/junfeng/archive/2004/03/25/95826.aspx
There were no assemblies in the Conversion Service folder. I copied all the assemblies from the OpenOffice assembly folder to the Conversion Service folder, remapped the path, restarted the service, and got a module cannot be found error. I then tried to leave assmeblies in both locations, map paths to both, restarted, and received the same error. Then, I deleted from the Conversion Service folder, mapped a single path to OpenOffice, restarted the service again, and somehow it succeeded. I know in reading through the link in a previous post above here others had issues that then suddenly resolved. I am not sure what happened, as the cli_xxx files are both in the GAC and OpenOffice assembly folder as they were previously and had issues, but now it works.
So far, I have been able to successfully test uploading 3 documents and they have converted to PDF with the properties attached. I am going to test other types of documents as well and try to do a load test of multiple documents to different locations.
I appreciate all the help in resolving this issue. I will keep you updated on my progress. Again, thank you to everyone who helped out with this. Eveyone has been most helpful.
I'm glad you are up and running. We are investigating this further and I will post any updates here.
I have the same problem (incorrect xml) except it seem to came from the right to execute the .asmx.
I setup WSS in Vista (with your great setup and tutorial), install the PDF converter and configure it on the same server as WSS. It run with success but fail to convert all my documents.
I can not execute the .asmx. How do I give permissions.
I got this error :Le fichier que vous tentez d'enregistrer ou d'extraire a été bloqué sur ce site Web par les administrateurs du serveur. (the file that you tried to save or extract on this web site is block by the administrators)
Any idea.
Erik
Erik,
You have most likely picked a web site that is stopped (Default Web Site) to host the conversion service (attach.asmx).
Unfortunately the setup program is listing all web sites without checking if they are running.
You can either manually copy the folder Bamboo.Conversion.FileService into the correct directory or reinstall the conversion service.
I suggest that you reinstall, it will be much faster since you don't have to reinstall OpenOffice the second time. Make sure to pick a Web Site that is running (ex. SharePoint - 80)
