The SDKs do not appear to work well or at all within a Blazor Server environment

Hi,

I also experienced this issue. I think it is the Signal-R issue. Because Signal-R is not dependent on http(s) protocols. Hence the communication goes blonkers. I trying to find any other work around. Three ways  1) JS Interop or 2) Create API  or 3) Background Services. Let me know your thoughts.

I can confirm after roughly 20 hours of testing and refactoring that the WordToPdf does not work with Blazor.  I am running .net 7 Blazor server.

I had not tried the WordToPdf function, but for months I have had the ExcelToPdf conversion running in a production environment with no issues.

Now I need to convert Word documents and it fails.

This call:

FileRef result = createPdfOperation.Execute(exc);

goes out to lunch and never returns.

Things I have tried:

1) UnitTested : success

2) Create a bare blazor server app and run this call : fails

3) Create a separate dll to run this call (from the bare test app): fails

4) Execute on new thread: fails

5) Both Static and not Static class calls fail

6) Stream or reading from file makes no difference
