servlet called twice and subsequence error

[Lo...@log-net.com]

I'm running into the issue of the fop servlet being called twice and I am
getting the following error:

ERROR  [fop]:Page subsequences exhausted. Using previous subsequence.

Anyone have any ideas what this means?

Thanks,
Lou

Louis,

To elaborate on this a bit. You have a page-master with some inherent 
limit on the number of pages it can produce. A page-sequence can refer, 
via master-reference, to either a simple-page-master or a 
page-sequence-master. The spec has, at 6.4.1.3 Page Generation:

"Each fo:page-sequence references either an fo:page-sequence-master or a 
page-master. If the reference is to a page-master, this is interpreted 
as if it were a reference to an fo:page-sequence-master that repeats the 
referenced page-master an unbounded number of times." (The rest of this 
paragraph becomes ambiguous.)

So if (a) your page-sequence master-reference names a simple-page-master 
directly, that simple-page-master will be used repeatedly as long as any 
content remains in the fo:flow to be laid out. If (b) your page-sequence 
master-reference names a page-sequence-master, this automatic repetition 
is not in effect. If the page-sequence-master contains a 
simple-page-master-reference, the simple-page-master named in the 
simple-page-master-reference will be used only once. To obtain the same 
effect as (a) your page-sequence master would have to name a 
repeatable-page-master-reference with a maximum-repeats property set to 
"no-limit". Fortunately, the default value for maximum-repeats is 
"no-limit".

Take a look at Dave Pawson's tutorial (written with the assistance of 
Arved, Karen and Keiron, I believe) at

This is a known problem with IEx. Use an URL ending in .pdf for
the PDF. (is there a law or something that people are generally
unimaginative for the URL-to-Object mapping of their servlets?)

This has nothing to do with the first problem. You have
an incomplete page master, check it.
