Pechkin 64-bit support?

Hi there,

Tried deploying Pechkin as part of my solution to an IIS server and got the exception:

BadImageFormatException: An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007000B)

This is the problem described here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2023766/an-attempt-was-made-to-load-a-program-with-an-incorrect-format-even-when-the-p

Workaround is to enable 32-bit app support for the IIS app pool.

Do you know if there's a 64-bit version of the wkhtmltopdf libraries or if there's any way of deploying to 64-bit? My sysadmin is not keen on enabling 32-bit support if we can help it.

Thanks.

Second this. Could it be possible to make the project 64bit compatible?

It's an awesome project. 64bit compatible would make it perfect :)

Thanks!

I'll look into it, https://github.com/pruiz/WkHtmlToXSharp already supports 64 bit, so you can use it in 64-bit environment. As soon as I'll embed libraries into assembly, I'll look into 64-bit support.

Which looks like that it won't be very soon.

I'd also like the 64-bit support, thanks for the awesome library!

Hi GManny,

First of all thank you very much for this wonderful library. When we can except the 64-bit support for this library. Because we are using NServiceBus in 64 Bit so I may not use the workaround what you have specified.

Thanks in advance.

64 bit support is crucial for using Pechkin in Windows Azure. Think about it: Pechkin is mostly used in ASP.NET applications, and: where is the "best place" to host ASP.NET applications? in Azure. Pechkin should be compatible with Azure.

Unfortunately, like the page for Wktohtmlsharp states, there is no x64 wkhtmltopdf library available, so it simply cannot be run in x64 mode.

Instead of doing some sketchy child process spawning, would anyone be interested in a project that exposes Wkhtmltopdf as a WCF service over named pipes, so it could be run in its own 32-bit app pool and utilized by fully 64-bit applications?
