Question

Maven Dependency

<dependency>
            <groupId>de.phip1611</groupId>
            <artifactId>docx4j-search-and-replace-util</artifactId>
            <version>1.0.3</version>
        </dependency>

<dependency>
        <groupId>org.docx4j</groupId>
        <artifactId>docx4j</artifactId>
        <version>6.1.2</version>
        <exclusions>
            <exclusion>

                <artifactId>log4j</artifactId>
            </exclusion>
        </exclusions>
    </dependency>

My Code is look like this as mentioned below.

 WordprocessingMLPackage sourceDocxDoc = WordprocessingMLPackage.load(fileInputStream) ;
 ByteArrayOutputStream out = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
 HashMap<String, String> replace = new HashMap<String, String>();
 replace.put("$Tag1","My Db Data");
 .
 .
 .
 .
 .
 .
 Docx4JSRUtil.searchAndReplace(sourceDocxDoc, replace);
 sourceDocxDoc.save(out);

program runs successfully on local environment but sometimes getting exception on production environment as per attached image on line sourceDocxDoc.save(out);

I can't debug it on local environment, so anyone else experienced this issue while using Docx4j lib to replace MS Word file contains identifier with data.

Java Experts kindly respond.............

Issue is resolved by my self

instead of using below maven dependency

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.docx4j</groupId>
    <artifactId>docx4j</artifactId>
    <version>6.1.2</version>
    <exclusions>
        <exclusion>
            <groupId>org.slf4j</groupId>
            <artifactId>slf4j-log4j12</artifactId>
        </exclusion>
        <exclusion>
            <groupId>log4j</groupId>
            <artifactId>log4j</artifactId>
        </exclusion>
    </exclusions>
</dependency>

I changed to below maven dependency and it works.

<dependency>
        <groupId>org.docx4j</groupId>
        <artifactId>docx4j-JAXB-ReferenceImpl</artifactId>
        <version>8.1.0</version>
    </dependency>

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.docx4j</groupId>
        <artifactId>docx4j-core</artifactId>
        <version>8.1.0</version>
        <scope>compile</scope>
    </dependency>
