I love the Reporting Module but Iām having trouble using the downloading PDF option. I though the problem was only with my laptop but I have try downloading the PDF in Reporting on five different system and I am getting the same error. Has anyone else resolved this problem?
This is also causing a problem with the drop down PDF option in the normal Icingaweb2 hosts and service overview webpages. If I disable the pdfexport module the overview pages will work again.

Icinga 2.11.2-1
Icingaweb2 2.7.3
idoreports 0.9.1
ipl 0.4.0
pdfexport 0.9.1
reacthuncle 0.6.0
reporting 0.10
Chrome 79.0.3945.88
Red Hat Enterprise 7.7
Thanks in advance for your help.

Did you install also all the requirements?
The pdf module also needs chrome/chromium, see https://github.com/Icinga/icingaweb2-module-pdfexport/blob/master/doc/02-Installation.md

I just found an open issue with this problem on GitHub. I will follow this and wait for a solution.
