Question: "Some diagram description contains errors" about plantuml-mode

[schmr]

excessive whitspeace after @enduml being the source of my problem. Simply trimming the whitespace made everything work.

Thanks @asbjornu for reporting it here, saved me the time when I got the same problem!

By building PlantUML from source and running the tests, I discovered that plantuml/plantuml#600 fixed my issue, which pointed to excessive whitspeace after @enduml being the source of my problem. Simply trimming the whitespace made everything work.

I am encountering the same thing as well. Not huge problem as I can have plantuml running in different window to see the document as I edit it but still.

Are you running plantuml with the version plantuml.1.2018.11.jar and the parameter -config some.config ?

It seems to be a bug of the specific version of plantuml, which doesn't support comments in config file. You may downgrade the jar to plantuml.1.2018.10.jar or previous ones.

FYI.

I am experiencing this error now and can't for the life of me figure out what is wrong in the diagram. Would it be possible for the error message to be a bit more specific? "Some diagram description contains errors" doesn't say much. I'm using -pipe and are only feeding plantuml.jar one diagram to convert, which looks like this:

@startuml Diagram
actor client
node app
database db
db -> app
app -> client
@enduml
