FPDI cannot initialize new FPDI() object

I'm trying to remove the second page from multiple pdfs. I get a 500 error on this page when I include the line $pdf = new FPDI(); and anything afterwards. The path to the autoload.php is right, so I do not know what I am doing wrong.

I cut out array declarations for space. There is nothing else in the doc other than that. 

<?php

require_once('includes/fpdi/autoload.php');
ini_set('memory_limit', '1024M');
ini_set('max_execution_time', 120); //

$i = 0;
foreach ($arrFiles as &$value) {

    $destination=fopen($documentroot."attachments/".$FileNames[$i],"w");
    $remote = $arrFiles[$i];
    $local  = $documentroot."attachments/".$FileNames[$i];
    copy($remote, $local);
    fclose($destination);

     $pdf = new FPDI();
     // $pageCount = $pdf->setSourceFile($documentroot."attachments/".$FileNames[$i]);
     //$templateID = $pdf->importPage(1);
     //$pdf->getTemplateSize($templateID);
     //$pdf->addPage();
     //$pdf->useTemplate($templateID);
     // $pdf->Output();
}
?>

Solution

  • Add

    use setasign\Fpdi\Fpdi;

    to the top of your script and initiate Fpdi.

    FPDI 2 is namespaced.

    There are several other issues in your snipped:

    1. The Output() call will send the file to the client. Doing this in a loop looks faulty!
    2. NEVER output any other content (the bunch of HTML at the eof) after sending the PDF to the client.
