mgurtler Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 I'm going to install JasperReports Server 5.5 on a Windows 7 32 bit VM. We have an existing install of JasperServer 3.7 running on Windows Server 2003. I would like to export our existing reports and settings, etc into the new install. How do I go about doing that. Can I do an export of the SQL in the existing MySQL database then import it into the new install's database? What other xml and properties files will need copied and edited? Thanks!

tkavanagh Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 In the older 3.7 JasperReports Server, there is not Import/Export in the UI. (I think the import-export in the UI was added in version 5.0 - but I can't remember exactly right now!).So, you will need to run the export from 3.7 at the command line:cd <js-install-location>/buildomaticjs-export.bat --everything --output-zip=js-3.7-export.zipThen you can go to your 5.5 instance, and do the Manage > Server Settings > Import (as mentioned above)Also, for detailed information on upgrade and import-export, you can take a look at the Install Guide which is found here:<js-install-location/docs/JasperReports-Server-Install-Guide.pdf(Lastly, the Install Guide is going to be added as html on this community site pretty soon with the next release 5.6 that is due out next month - that will make life a bit easier when looking for upgrade information.)

topkatz Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 I actualy tried this very thing on linux. We are on 3.7 and wanted to get up to 5.6. I installed 5.6 and tried the import from my exported 3.7. Some of my reports work and some dont. I get a error about casting integers to boolean. I would have to back track and try it again for specifics. In any event this aproach has not worked for me as of yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
