[fabulousmichael]

Tried making a new CV after putting in details and information and I then click on MAKE, the page comes with an error message saying (Failed to load pdf file).

@fabulousmichael template #6?

[jimmyhuang]

I had an issue where I copied over bullet points (with whitespacing) and I received the same error. I would check your inputs again and make sure everything is plain text.

Need to install latex first in your local machine to be able to compile:

I am having the same issue. I have tried MiKTeX but still same.

@omerfraz Could you share the error message from the terminal where you are running the Resumake server?

[omerfraz]

It would be easier to debug this over Slack, and then we can update here when fixed. Could you join the Slack channel and then I can take a look later today or tomorrow.

[omerfraz]

Thanks for the invite. I headed over to Slack and checked the issue, its more likely the way we ran the scripts (client and server to run separately in two different command windows
i.e. npm run start:client and npm run start:server in addition to some settings in webpack.dev.config.js i.e.

proxy: {
'/api/**': {
target: 'http://[::1]:3001',
//secure: false,
//changeOrigin: false,
headers: {
        "Connection": "keep-alive"
    }
  }
}

and a change in the client/package.json build was changed to production (was originally development) for making things moving.

"build": "cross-env NODE_ENV=production webpack --config webpack.prod.config.js --progress --profile --colors",

[adityasatalkar]

I also have the exact same issue. I have installed latex and confirmed via command line that it works. When I try to 'Make' the PDF, I get this error on the webpage,

followed by this error on the terminal

Error: LaTeX Syntax Error
  ! LaTeX Error: File `fullpage.sty' not found.
  Enter file name:     \usepackage{amssymb}
  ! Undefined control sequence.
  \filename@simple ...t \relax \edef \filename@base

      at processTicksAndRejections (internal/process/task_queues.js:84:21)

This is limited to template 1, but when I change templates, the errors are similar with different .sty files

[saadq]

@Ars75 Your issue is unrelated to the ones above. The "Failed to load PDF" error shows up on the client whenever there's any server error.

What OS are you on? But regardless, there may just be an issue with your installation. If you search for File fullpage.sty not found on the web, you should see a few similar problems from people where the fullpage package doesn't work because of the specific installation you used.

[adityasatalkar]

I'm currently on macOS 10.15.1

Thanks a lot. I did try looking into a few other places on the internet too.

The way I got this to work was I had to run the following commands:

sudo tlmgr install preprint

it then complained saying

tlmgr itself needs to be updated.
Please do this via either
  tlmgr update --self

So I ran

sudo tlmgr install preprint

re-ran the resumake script and voila! its working now for template 1.

I similarly had to run

sudo tlmgr install hyphenat
sudo tlmgr install textpos
sudo tlmgr install tocloft
sudo tlmgr install xifthen
sudo tlmgr install framed
sudo tlmgr install enumitem
sudo tlmgr install titlesec

to get a few more templates to run

[saadq]

How did you install latex initially? Did you do it through MacTeX? (https://www.tug.org/mactex/)

I think MacTeX is the recommended solution for installing latex on Mac and usually comes with most of those packages installed.

[adityasatalkar]

Yes I installed MacTex first and then tried running the scripts. But now I’m running into Syntax errors for a few templates 😅 while others compile it just fine. Idk why that’s happening though. So will have to look into it next

[powertrio77]

I get Failed to load PDF file. I'm on windows10. I'm clicking the Make button to make a PDF.

Where do I copy the folder node-latex-master? I pasted it here, C:\test\resumake.io-master\node-latex-master
The only thing I ran was, "npm install node-latex"

Do I need to do anything else to install node-latex? Do I need to do something with the Usage code, mentioned in the readme.md? Thanks.

I have MikTex and TeXWorks installed.
[HPM] Error occurred while trying to proxy request /api/generate/resume from localhost:3000 to http://localhost:3001 (ECONNREFUSED) (https://nodejs.org/api/errors.html#errors_common_system_errors)

Interesting, but I get this error, when import a .json file, which I made on my localhost:3000
Error occured while trying to proxy to: localhost:3000/api/upload

on an OpenSuse machine everything worked. For some reason, I got Failed to load when I imported a JSON file that I had just created. But I got it to load the PDF in preview screen and make a PDF resume on the first test. Several times after that, it says Failed to Load PDF.
