I want to create a PDF report. Therefore I followed the instructions given here: https://anvil.works/blog/generate-pdf-with-python
However I get the following error when I run the script on my local computer to render a report: anvil._server.AnvilWrappedError: ‘PDF rendering service not available’. What may be the cause?
I have the same issue:
null: PDF rendering service not available
at /downlink/anvil/pdf.py, line 17
called from /downlink/anvil/pdf.py, line 43
Hi there,
Our apologies for this - we had an outage of Anvil’s PDF rendering functionality tonight, caused by increased load from a recent popular tutorial. I apologise for the slow response: this outage managed to evade our monitoring.
It’s now back up, with extra capacity, and we’ll be looking into how it happened and how to avoid similar problems in future!

Thanks, now it’s working. Altough I guess the description I referred to is now outdated. The one you refer to is indeed an amazingly easy way to produce a pdf. Sometimes life is easy
