I am a superfan of the use of pagedown::chrome_print("test.html")
to convert my test.html to test.pdf. It worked 2 days ago. Today it did not, with the message:
Error in force(expr) :
Failed to generate output. Reason: Failed to open http://some numbers/favicon.ico # (HTTP status code: 404)
Apparently my chrome installation got updated today. That is the only difference I see. Anyone else also having this problem? Anyone knows about a fix? The most recent mentions were some years back. Thank you!
I just implemented the workaround suggested by @I_O in the comment in the servr package. You can install the new version via:
install.packages('servr')
Restart R, and pagedown::chrome_print()
should work again.
