The application runs properly on my computer, but on remote server it throws error message
The type initializer for "com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfWriter" threw an exception.

Hi,

My problem is so similar, i have problems with the sentence :
PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new FileOutputStream("filename.pdf"));

I download itext-1.4.5.jar and the path its correct, but when i runs the program thrwos and exception:
Exception in thread main
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfGraphics2D
    at com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfWriter.<init>(PdfWriter.java:844)
    at com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfWriter.getInstance(PdfWriter.java:864)
    at proves.Images.main(Images.java:22).

The code of my program is ridiculus:

             try {
               PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new FileOutputStream("filename.pdf"));
               document.open();
               document.add(new Paragraph("Hi, this is your PDF file!"));
  }

I'm using jDeveloper. Have someone help me please?

Thank you

Hi,

I am getting the same problem. It works fine in local system, but its throwing error like

"The type initializer for 'com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfWriter' threw an exception."

when i tried to run at online server.

I am using shared hosting, so I really dont know whether J# distribution is installed or not?

Please help me,as project deadline on head.

Thanks.

You have to install J# redistributable on the server, not on client.

Did you install Visual J# runtime package on the web server?
