Limitations:
The following limitations exist only on the SourceForge hosted site. These limitations do not exist in practice in an actual installation. There are likely additional limitations not yet documented here.- PDF Generation: SourceForge has resource limits in place, and some options of the PDF generator program exceed that limit. When this happens, you will see an out of memory error (usually related to picking an option with large graphics). Choose fewer options and smaller graphics for the report and it will likely work.
- ExcelWriter: This isn't working yet. The problem seems to be related to installation of PEAR and the ExcelWriter module.
- Google Map: Without a valid map key for this site, google maps will be restricted in behavior, usually showing an error pane.
