PDF header signature not found (file missing)

Well it's built to work with both webform & CCK. Webform urls are fillpdf?fid=x&webform[nid]=x&webform[sid]=x, CCK urls are fillpdf?fid=x&nid=x.

Let me check into this xmlrpc business, brb.

well, I tested it from my local to remote & got this error:

# warning: fopen(sites/fillpdf.ocdevel.com/files/fillpdf/test_template.pdf) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /Users/renelle/workspace/ocdevel/drupal6/sites/all/modules/fillpdf/fillpdf.module on line 434.

However, it turns out I had accidentally deleted test_template.pdf, so it couldn't find the file. Restored the file & everything worked. Did you also get the first few "warning: fopen()" errors? Check if your file's still there? I better make sure my module's not deleting anything....

crap, looks like the pdfs are indeed being deleted because I'm missing the file_set_status($file, FILE_STATUS_PERMANENT); after file_save_upload (& therefore the uploaded pdfs are being deemed temporary). Will roll a new version very soon.

Ok, that was a bummer bug... I really hope there aren't mega PDF-deletions out in the wild. Sorry guys :s
If you did loose a bunch of PDFs, if you can remember which ones they were & their filenames, just scp/ftp those back into the files/fillpdf directory & everything should still work
