Re: Working in a Unit Test, not in Application

Have you checked if the `result` variable is indeed empty (like with
logging it or something direct)?

Have you checked what's in the `template` variable, if you toString
it?

Otherwise, JavaCC has this terrible habit of silently ending parsing
on I/O errors (which is also a problem in Velocity for example, not
just in FreeMarker). In 2.3.24 I have worked that around. So as a last
resort, try if with
http://freemarker.org/builds/2.3.24-nightly/freemarker.jar you get an
exception.
