Validation failed with example.rb about axlsx HOT 13 CLOSED

@zedtux I'll look into this as soon as I get home est 2 hours. Are you using the published rubygem or what's on master here? Also what version of nokogiri are you using?

from axlsx.

@randym I've always had those validation errors when running the example from master.. (nokogiri (1.5.2, 1.5.0, 1.4.4))

I don't know if @zedtux is running from master?

from axlsx.

I'm using the gem from rubygems.org, and nokogiri version 1.5.2.

Thanks

Can you guys confirm that this is not the problem? I am not saying it is, just that I want to eliminate any libxml2 issues before jumping on this.

#24

from axlsx.

In my case there output file is always empty (but columns has different sizes like if it successfully created object and applied styles, but after validation removed all values and colors).

from axlsx.

Looks like that was the problem here.. :) No problems with validation after using the correct libxml2 version

@zedtux if you are running the code in your example above - (perhaps you are not!?) I would expect and empty worksheet as you are not adding a worksheet/rows - if you are using numbers - please be sure to set use_shared_strings to true - it is not in line with the spec, but it is what numbers requires to build (and it WILL slow down parsing of your sheet!)

Yes my example can't be other than blank.
But I was speaking of another test where I was using texts and styling, sorry my bad, I wasn't clear enough.

I will give a try with the libxml2 from brew and let you know.

@zedtux how did it work out for you?

from axlsx.

Sorry, I have this issue at work, and I'm currently busy. I will test it as soon as possible.

from axlsx.

No worries mate. day-jobs have to come first!

@Zedux

Hope you work load has lessened a bit in the last month!

Testing seems to show that this issue is caused by using an outdated libxml2 version.
I am going to close this issue for now, but if you ever get a spare moment to update your libxml2 and you still have validation errors please don't hesitate to re-open this.

Yeah sorry... so much stress and work.
Anyway, we're using writeexcel gem now and it work directly.

Thank you for you support and apologies.
