PHPExcel error while saving

I'm using PHPExcel for exporting a report.

It's gave me an error when I run it on internet (using PHP 5.6)..

But, when I'm test on my localhost, it's fine. Works perfectly (using PHP 5.4.31)

Here's my code

function downloadExcelBrand($brand,$tglAwal,$tglAkhir)
{

    $this->load->library('php_excel');

    $objPHPExcel = new PHPExcel(); 
    // print_r($objPHPExcel);die();
    $objPHPExcel->setActiveSheetIndex(0);

    $objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->SetCellValue('A1', "Concept");
    $objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->SetCellValue('B1', $brand);

    $objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->SetCellValue('A2', "Period");
    $objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->SetCellValue('B2', $tglAwal." to ".$tglAkhir);

    $objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->SetCellValue('A5', "Boutique");
    $objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->SetCellValue('B5', "Q1");
    $objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->SetCellValue('C5', "Q2");
    $objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->SetCellValue('D5', "Q3");
    $objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->SetCellValue('E5', "Q4");
    $objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->SetCellValue('F5', "BBC Score");

    $data = $this->surveymodel->getDataLaporanBrand($brand,$tglAwal,$tglAkhir);
    // print_r($data);die();
    $i = 5;
    foreach ($data as $index=>$value) {
        // print_r($data[$index+1]);die();
        if( $index%4 == 0){
            $i++;
            // print_r($value["Score"]);print_r($value['TotalData']);die();
            $AvgQ1 = $value["Score"] / $value['TotalData'];
            // print_r($AvgQ1);die();
            $AvgQ2 = $data[$index+1]["Score"]/$data[$index+1]['TotalData'];
            $AVGQ3 = $data[$index+2]["Score"]/$data[$index+2]['TotalData'];
            $AvgQ4 = $data[$index+3]["Score"]/$data[$index+3]['TotalData'];
            $BSC = $AvgQ1+$AvgQ2+$AVGQ3+$AvgQ4;

            $objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->SetCellValue('A'.$i, $value["boutiqueID"]);
            $objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->SetCellValue('B'.$i, $AvgQ1);
            $objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->SetCellValue('C'.$i, $AvgQ2);
            $objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->SetCellValue('D'.$i, $AVGQ3);
            $objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->SetCellValue('E'.$i, $AvgQ4);
            $objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->SetCellValue('F'.$i, $BSC);
        }
    }

    // Instantiate a Writer to create an OfficeOpenXML Excel .xlsx file
    $objWriter = new PHPExcel_Writer_Excel2007($objPHPExcel); 
    // Write the Excel file to filename some_excel_file.xlsx in the current directory
    header('Content-type: application/vnd.ms-excel');
    // It will be called file.xls
    header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="Report_By_Brand.xlsx"');
    // Write file to the browser
    $objWriter->save('php://output');
}

the weird things happen when I remove the $objWriter->save('php://output'); code. It's asking for saving the excel, but the excel file can't be open because it's corrupted..

Saving the $writer output to a file and redirecting to it solved my problem

I also set the time limit and memory limit high so that they don't cause any problem

Code:

        $writer = new PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheet\Writer\Xlsx($spreadsheet); // instantiate Xlsx
        $writer->setPreCalculateFormulas(false);
        //ob_end_clean();
        set_time_limit(500);
        ini_set('memory_limit', '-1');
        $writer->save($filename . ".xlsx"); // save the file to root of project
        redirect('/' . $filename . ".xlsx"); // redirect the user to the file

Try install ZipArchive Class i.e sudo apt-get install php7.0-zip

as it might be the problem for newly formed server.(It was for me)

I found a fix,go to Classes/PHPExcel/Writer/Excel2007.php comment out the following lines, php 7 has a wierd return date type so doing this will enable php excel to work in php 7 pronto. any way

$saveDateReturnType = PHPExcel_Calculation_Functions::getReturnDateType();
PHPExcel_Calculation_Functions::setReturnDateType(PHPExcel_Calculation_Functions::RETURNDATE_EXCEL);
PHPExcel_Calculation_Functions::setReturnDateType($saveDateReturnType);

to

//$saveDateReturnType = PHPExcel_Calculation_Functions::getReturnDateType();
//PHPExcel_Calculation_Functions::setReturnDateType(PHPExcel_Calculation_Functions::RETURNDATE_EXCEL);
//PHPExcel_Calculation_Functions::setReturnDateType($saveDateReturnType);

worked for me.

I had same problem with 4000+ rows. Increasing both memory limit and time limit fixed the problem.

Reason for ERR_INVALID_RESPONSE behavior is that you send xls/x headers but then http error 500 from running out of memory or time.

set_time_limit(120);
ini_set('memory_limit', '256M');
...
$objWriter = PHPExcel_IOFactory::createWriter($objPHPExcel, 'Excel2007');
ob_end_clean();
$objWriter->save('php://output');
exit;

Add ob_end_clean()

header('Content-Type: application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet');
    header('Content-Disposition: attachment;filename="Filename.xlsx"');
    header('Cache-Control: max-age=0');
    $objWriter = \PHPExcel_IOFactory::createWriter($objPHPExcel, "Excel2007");
    ob_end_clean();
    $objWriter->save('php://output');
    exit;
