Jacques Le Roux commented on OFBIZ-7136:
----------------------------------------
Done in
trunk at r1745751
R15.12 r1745752
I did not try to update to version 2.0.1.
I only tested by using
https://localhost:8443/example/control/ExampleReportPdfOptions?exampleId=EX01 but I got nothing. So I tried with R15.12 before backporting and got the same issue. So I guess it's unrelated with this update. Moreover with both branches I get an error in log for the barcode PDF: I opened OFBIZ-7137
I don't close yet, I'll look at other releases later, it's no obvious if upgrading from 1.7.1 to 1.8.12 can be done w/o side effects.
> Ugrade PDFBox to 1.8.12 (or 2.0.1?) due to vulnerability
