[Archivesspace_Users_Group] ArchivesSpace failing to export resource to PDF

Mon Jun 25 18:14:09 EDT 2018

>From the staff interface in ArchivesSpace 2.3.2, I am attempting to "Export | Print resource to PDF". The batch submission get things started fine, but the job ends up with a failure status when it completes.

I see the following error message:

# more /home/archivesspace/archivesspace-v2.3.2/archivesspace/data/shared/job_files/print_to_pdf_job_236/output.log
Generating PDF for Oral History
org.apache.fop.fo.ValidationException: "fo:list-block" is missing child elements. Required content model: marker* (list-item)+ (See position 1794:68)
org.apache.xalan.transformer.TransformerIdentityImpl.transform(org/apache/xalan/transformer/TransformerIdentityImpl.java:502)
java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(java/lang/reflect/Method.java:498)
....

Trevor Thornton gave the following suggestion to the ASpace mailing list (back in 2017-03-21) to a similar error message:
       Looks like there is a list in a note somewhere that has no list items -
      that what this seems to be saying:

      org.apache.fop.fo.ValidationException: "fo:list-block" is missing child
     elements. Required content model: marker* (list-item)+ (See position 508:68)

      I would try to export the resource as an EAD, and if that works you might
     more easily search through the XML to find the problem.

I  was able to "Export | Download EAD",  that resource as suggested, but there were only three <list type="ordered"> tags in the EAD and all of them had <head> and <item> as children.

I also looked on the ArchivesSpace server and was not able to find a temporary file created at that time, that might have position 1794:68 (line#:char).

Any suggestions on what to try next?

Thanks
