PDF export broken on dillinger.io - "Could not find Chrome (ver. 142.0.7444.175)" #885

Description

@ManuzimFerreira

Bug Description

PDF export on the production site (dillinger.io) is broken.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Go to https://dillinger.io
  2. Write any markdown content
  3. Click Export As → PDF
  4. Navigate to /factory/fetch_pdf

Expected Behavior

PDF should download successfully.

Actual Behavior

Raw error displayed:

Could not find Chrome (ver. 142.0.7444.175). This can occur if either
 1. you did not perform an installation before running the script (e.g. `npx puppeteer browsers install chrome`) or
 2. your cache path is incorrectly configured (which is: /home/sbx_user1051/.cache/puppeteer).

Environment

  • Production site: dillinger.io
  • The path /home/sbx_user1051/ suggests a sandboxed cloud environment

Suggested Fix

The recent Dockerfile fix (commit 24f352c) adds proper Chromium installation and sets PUPPETEER_EXECUTABLE_PATH. This fix may need to be deployed to production, or the production environment may need Chrome installed separately with proper path configuration.
