I have a problem generating a pdf report from my app shiny which is hosted on a server.
the app works fine but when I press the button to download the report, I get this error :
pandoc version 1.12.3 or higher is required and was not found.
The proble is that if I type pandoc -v
I get:

So I suppose I have the right version for that. TexLive is also installed and the path is in $PATH
.
Server.R
library(shiny) library(drsmooth) library(shinyBS) library(knitr) library(xtable) library(rmarkdown) shinyServer(function(input, output,session) { output$downloadReport
* report.Rmd* does not contain any sort of calculation, it's only text. The pdf generation works fine on my local version (MacOS) but not on the server.
Thanks in advance, and I'm here to give other information if needed.
