Media not found - Exception on attaching file - Relative path

[ortoni]

Issue while attaching file into HTML reports

Exception occurred: java.io.IOException: Media was not found at [./a.jpg]

package reportsTest;
import java.io.IOException;
import com.aventstack.extentreports.ExtentReports;
import com.aventstack.extentreports.ExtentTest;
import com.aventstack.extentreports.MediaEntityBuilder;
import com.aventstack.extentreports.reporter.ExtentHtmlReporter;

public class ReportsExt {

public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
             
	        ExtentHtmlReporter html = new ExtentHtmlReporter("./reportsFolder/reports.html");
		ExtentReports extent = new ExtentReports();
		extent.attachReporter(html);
		ExtentTest test = extent.createTest("Attach ScreenShot");
		// this does not through any error but snap is not attaching to reports.
		test.pass("Passed", 
                MediaEntityBuilder.createScreenCaptureFromPath("./reportsFolder/a.jpg").build());
		// This attach the file in HTML but throwing exception as media not found
		test.pass("Passed", MediaEntityBuilder.createScreenCaptureFromPath("./a.jpg").build());
		extent.flush();
		
	}
}

Code from Media class, relative path is not working.

Instead of getPath, getAbsolutePath can be used.

		if(getPath() != null) {
			System.out.println("I am not null");
		}

		if(!new File(getPath()).exists()) {
			System.out.println("File does not exist");
		}else {
			System.out.println("File exist");
		}


		if (getPath() != null && !new File(getPath()).exists()) {
			throw new IOException("Media was not found at [" + getPath() + "]");
    	}
        public static String getPath() { 
    	          return "./a.jpg"; 
	}

This would only be thrown if the image is not available at the given path. Is a.jpg available at reportsFolder and the root folder of your project?

[ortoni]

file path is available and also it getting attached in the html file, problem is even though its getting attached its throwing error.

[anshooarora]

Hmm, can you create a small snippet that I can use to reproduce?

[anshooarora]

Please check with version 4.0.1, this should now work as expected. I have disabled this check until I am able to reproduce and find the root cause.

In V 4.0.1 it got resolved. Thanks you.
Just another question how to append report.
In 3 we have,
ExtentHtmlReporter html =
new ExtentHtmlReporter("");
html.setAppendExisting(true);
but in V4 I couldn't find anything.
