Segmentation faults again using aspose.cells.node with HTML save options

Aspose.Cells Product Family

Hi,

I’m using the latest version of aspose.cells.node. However, once again, I run into so many segmentation faults when converting Excel → HTML (HtmlSaveOptions, have also tried with all options/settings off but it still happens). Before I have noted my instances found and they have been fixed but we still have it on a nearly daily basis, often with Japanese documents.

Here is a sample file for you to try and recreate: Import timeout excel sec.xlsx - Google Sheets

Thanks very much

It sounds like you’re experiencing persistent segmentation faults when converting Excel files to HTML using Aspose.Cells for Node.js, particularly with Japanese documents. Here’s a structured approach to troubleshoot and resolve the issue:

Cause: The segmentation faults may be due to specific content in the Japanese documents, memory allocation issues, or bugs in the version of Aspose.Cells you are using.

Solution: Follow these steps to address the problem:

  1. Update to the Latest Version: Ensure you are using the latest version of Aspose.Cells for Node.js, as updates often include critical bug fixes and performance improvements.

  2. Test with Different HtmlSaveOptions: Since you’ve already tried various settings, consider testing with the following options:

    • Disable comments export: htmlSaveOptions.setExportComments(false);
    • Limit the export to just the active worksheet: setExportActiveWorksheetOnly(true);
    • Experiment with setSaveAsSingleFile(true) to see if it affects the output.

  3. Check for Specific Content: Investigate if there are specific characters or formatting in the document that might be causing the fault. Simplifying the content can help identify any problematic elements.

  4. Memory Management: Ensure that your environment has sufficient memory allocated for processing large files, as segmentation faults can sometimes be related to memory issues.

  5. Error Handling: Implement error handling in your code to catch exceptions and log detailed error messages. This can help pinpoint the exact point of failure.

  6. Contact Support: If the issue persists after trying the above steps, reach out to Aspose support with the specific file and details of your environment. They can provide more targeted assistance.

Next Steps: Implement the suggested solutions and test the conversion process again. If the problem continues, gather any error logs and prepare to contact Aspose support for further help.

Here’s a minimal code snippet to get you started with the HtmlSaveOptions:

const { Workbook, HtmlSaveOptions } = require('aspose.cells');

const workbook = new Workbook("path/to/your/excel/file.xlsx");
const options = new HtmlSaveOptions();
options.setExportComments(false);
options.setExportActiveWorksheetOnly(true);

workbook.save("output.html", options);

Please let me know if these steps help or if you require further assistance!

Yes, as I said i am using latest version, have tried removing all HTMLSaveOptions params, increased compute (is not due to how much memory, it’s just a crash in segsev).

I require more support
