Saving to UNC path fails

[msc.bs]

Hey,

when simply loading and saving a html document with Aspose.Html 21.8.0.0, the following exception is thrown:


HResult=0x80131500
Nachricht = Failed to parse URL: fs1/R/temp/msc/SimpleDocument.html
Quelle = Aspose.HTML
Stapelüberwachung:

bei Aspose.Html.HTMLDocument.Save(Url url, HTMLSaveOptions saveOptions)
bei Aspose.Html.HTMLDocument.Save(String path)
bei BS.Documents.Atlanta.Client.ViewModels.TestViewModel.VB$StateMachine_1_ExecuteAsync.MoveNext()

This is the code I am using:

Dim path As String = “\\fs1\R\temp\msc\SimpleDocument.html”
Dim htmlDocument As New Aspose.Html.HTMLDocument(path)
htmlDocument.Save(path)

The sample file is attached.
SimpleDocument.zip (211 Bytes)

This might be similar to the following thread:

Exception “Failed to Parse Base URL” when converting HTML

Hi, I tried running the example code to convert simple HTML content to a PDF file and it works fine on my local machine. Aspose.Html.Converters.Converter.ConvertHTML(@“Hello World!!”, “.”, new Aspose.Html.Saving.PdfSaveOptions(), “output.pdf”); However, when I run this on a server running the app on a UNC path (e.g. \\myfilesystem\app), it throws the exception: Failed to parse base URL: \\myfilesystem\app StackTrace: at ​ .

Can you please try to use 22.8 version of the API and let us know in case issue still persists? Also, please make sure that your application or program has write access to the path where you are trying to save the file.

[msc.bs]

The issue remains with 22.08. I do have write access. A workaround with an IOutputStorage combined with a simple System.IO.FileStream works.

Could you please share a bit about the environment details where you are using the API like OS Name, Application Type, Or any server information?

[msc.bs]

Loading and saving documents with Aspose.Words, Aspose.Pdf, etc. to the exact same file server works without any issues. Why do you need that information?

As far as I can tell Windows 10 was the Client OS.
