Hi, I'm having the following exception when trying to render a report using html-to-xlsx recipe:

"Error rendering report: instance has been daemonized and initialized successfully (pid: 703428)rendering has finished with errors:A critical error occurred while trying to execute the render command (2).

I would appreciate any guidance on how to resolve this error and successfully render the report. Please let me know if you require any further information.

Thank you for your assistance!

When using the jsreport binary, you will need to make sure all the chrome dependency libs are installed. This is specific to your linux distribution.

This lines from the v2 doc could help

apt-get update && apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends libgconf-2-4 gnupg git curl wget ca-certificates libgconf-2-4 && \
    wget -q -O - https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub | apt-key add - && \
    sh -c 'echo "deb [arch=amd64] http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google.list' && \
    apt-get update && \  
    apt-get install -y lsb-release google-chrome-stable fonts-ipafont-gothic fonts-wqy-zenhei fonts-thai-tlwg fonts-kacst libxtst6 libxss1 --no-install-recommends

# debian needs this additional install
apt-get install -y libx11-6 libx11-xcb

In general it is typically better to run standalone jsreport and communicate with it with jsreport.Client nuget. The standalone installation guides can be found here
