<![CDATA[ejs , xlsx templates not working after jsreport v2 upgrade]]>Is there a way to make ejs, xlsx templates work after jsreport v2 upgrade. We have written lots of xlsx template in ejs and templates were working before the upgrades. I signed up for temporary cloud subscription and tested one of our ejs/xlsx template on jsreportonline.net, its working fine there which indicates that i am missing something but don't know what. After the upgrade we are seeing issues such as this. Please help!!

Thanks

Before upgrade, i never used <%=xlsxPrint()%> for ejs/xlsx templates. I tried adding line at the end of template, but I see following error

For v1, we did not use xlsxPrint at all

Can you replicate the issue in playground?

I can't replicate the issue in playground with same template. I replaced some keywords with "sampledata" or "some data here" as its confidential

Please upgrade the jsreport-xlsx using

npm i jsreport-xlsx@2.0.2 --save --save-exact

There is hotfix which is on jsreportonline/playground but not in jsreport@2.2.0 yet.
