We are using ColdFusion alongside the .NET slides DLL to convert PPT and PPTX files to images.
We are using Aspose.Slides 4.3.0.0 on Windows Server 2008 and calling the DLL from ColdFusion.
This works well for most files, but sometimes we experience exceptions when intialising the file (in effect we are calling the Aspose.Slides.Pptx.PresentationEx constructor) passing a file reference like so:
<cfset presentation.init(“C:\path\file.pptx”)>
As I said, this works well for most files. The error we are getting for some files is as follows:
java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetExceptionI am attaching one of the problematic files. Are you able to reproduce the problem? Note that the error does not occur when we try to convert via slide.GetThumbnail() but as soon as we try to instantiate the file.
