Error when opening JRXML files on Windows...

[medium_grade]

I am having some trouble opening JRXML files that I have created in iReport after saving them. Both iReport and my local JasperServer give me the following error:

The only way I can fix this is by changing the encoding on the first line from "UTF-8" to"ISO-8859-1". I can't seem to figure a way around this. Can someone help me?

There is a version incompatibility between JasperServer and iReport. See jasperforge.org/plugins/espforum/view.php?group_id=83&forumid=101&topicid=47587
