Failed to initialize V3 after upgrade

[Genhan]

We are using the jsReport library in our existing Express app. After upgrading jsReport from 2.6.1 to 3.0.1, we received the following error message during jsReport initialization.

Any help is appreciated.

Thank you!

Thank you for reporting the problem. I apologize for the inconvenience.

I see you likely integrate the express in this way

I was able to replicate the problem and just pushed the fix. Please install the updated express extension

npm i @jsreport/jsreport-express@3.0.1 --save --save-exact

Thank you so much, @jan_blaha . The fix works!

Hi @jan_blaha,

The same issue came back after I restarted our Express app.

Here are what I did:

1. Installed the updated express extension as you suggested
2. Started our Express app and it worked!
3. Restarted the same Express app and the same error appeared

Do you have any suggestion?

Thank you!

You are right. It behaves like that.
We will ship the fix in the next full jsreport hotfix. In a few days.

Until then, you can apply config useExtensionsLocationCache: false, as a workaround.

const jsreport = require('jsreport')({
  useExtensionsLocationCache: false,
  extensions: {
      express: { app: reportingApp, server: server },
  },
  appPath: "/reporting"
});

I apologize for the troubles.
