3. Not able to create Blob in Azure Blob using jsreport-azure-storage extension

Not able to create Blob in Azure Blob using jsreport-azure-storage extension

  • K

    Hi Jan,
    I have Started a Ubuntu Server VM on Azure Cloud and installed the JsReport on it and then created a Storage Account as well to store the Reports in Azure Storage Account.

    When I am trying to Generate a report from my .Net core application the generated report should be stored in Storage Blob in Specifed Container as mentioned in Jsreport config.

    While generating report the report get's generated successfully and Container is created in Azure Storage Blob Service but the Report/Blob is not stored in Azure Storage. You can see the Jsreport Logs below and the error I am getting.

  • The problem was that the extension was compatible with node >=10.
    I released an update that should fix this and make it working with node 8.

    Please install using

    npm i -S jsreport-azure-storage@1.1.2
