    The JasperReports Server report scheduling feature is powered by the Quartz scheduler tool. The configuration settings for Quartz-based report scheduling is automatically handled by buildomatic.

    In a deployed JasperReports Server instance, you will find the js.quartz.properties file in the following location:

    <app-server-path>/jasperserver/WEB-INF/js.quartz.properties

    For mail server configuration, there is an additional property setting for authentication in the following file:

    <app-server-path>/webapps/jasperserver/WEB-INF/applicationContext-report-scheduling.xml

    The following configurations are discussed in this section:

         Mail Server Configuration
         Quartz Driver Delegate Class
         Report Scheduler Web URI
         Quartz Table Prefix
         Settings for import-export
         Setting Properties in the default_master.properties File

    Mail Server Configuration Settings

    If you schedule reports or run them in the background, you can specify email addresses to notify when the report completes. To use this feature, configure JasperReports Server to contact an email server:

    Configuration File

    <app-server>/<deployment>/WEB-INF/js.quartz.properties

    Property

    Description

    report.scheduler.mail.sender.host

    The name of the computer hosting the mail server

    report.scheduler.mail.sender.username

    The name of the user in the mail server that JasperReports Server can use

    report.scheduler.mail.sender.password

    The password of the mail server user

    report.scheduler.mail.sender.from

    The address that appears in the From field on email notifications

    report.scheduler.mail.sender.protocol

    The protocol that the mail server uses. JasperReports Server only supports SMTP.

    Note: Your entry must be lower case. For example: smtp

    report.scheduler.mail.sender.port

    The port number that the mail server uses. For SMTP, the default is typically 25 (values other than 25 may not work in earlier JasperReports Server versions).

    Configuration File

    <app-server>/<deployment>/WEB-INF/applicationContext-report-scheduling.xml

    Property

    Bean

    Description

    javaMailProperties key="mail.smtp.auth"

    reportScheduler

    MailSender

    If your mail server requires authentication, change this property from false to true.

    Database Settings for the Quartz Driver Delegate Class

    Quartz uses the Quartz driver delegate class to interact with the JDBC driver.

    note-icon-ns_28x28.png.737e6d76135b6cd416836b1bbe1b7b56.png

    If you used buildomatic to install JasperReports Server, the correct value of the Quartz driver delegate class is set automatically for your database.

    If you didn’t use buildomatic to install JasperReports Server, use this table to edit the js.quartz.properties file and set the value of the Quartz driver delegate class to the correct value for your database:

    Configuration File

    <app-server>/<deployment>/WEB-INF/js.quartz.properties

    Property

    Database

    Value

    MySQL

    PostgreSQL

    Settings for the Report Scheduler Web URI

    JasperReports Server uses the Report Scheduler Web URI to construct the link it sends in the output from a scheduled job. This link must be correct for the user to access the report on the server.

    The port on which you run JasperReports Server and context root of the deployed JasperReports Server web application determine the report scheduler Web URI. The default context root is jasperserver.

    To set this value manually, edit the following file: <app-server>/<deployment>/WEB-INF/js.quartz.properties. Change the properties for your application server as shown in the following table.

    Property

    App Server

    Example Value

    Apache Tomcat

    JBoss

    GlassFish

    Settings for the Quartz Table Prefix

    For databases that support schemas, you can set the Quartz table prefix so that it includes the schema if you use one.

    note-icon-ns_28x28.png.c5b3b8810fca7eba81256c6ad40d2d04.png

    If you installed JasperReports Server using buildomatic the Quartz table prefix is set automatically.

    To set this value, edit the file <app-server>/<deployment>/WEB-INF/js.quartz.properties. Change the following property:

    Property

    Description

    The prefix for the quartz table, including any schema name.

    Settings for Import-Export

    If you are manually configuring the import-export shell scripts instead of using the buildomatic, make sure your settings for the Quartz driver delegate class property are correct for the database you are using.

    note-icon-ns_28x28.png.7b32242520eb6006b7079731de7313b4.png

    If you installed using buildomatic these settings are handled automatically (in buildomatic import-export).

    To configure the import-export scripts manually, edit the following file:

    <js-install>/buildomatic/conf_source/ieCE/js.quartz.properties

    Change the following properties:

    Property

    Description

    Set to the same value as described in Database Settings for the Quartz Driver Delegate Class.

    Set to the same value as described in Settings for the Quartz Table Prefix

    Setting Properties in the default_master.properties File

    At installation time, there is a group of properties that can be set in order to configure JasperReports Server functionality. These properties are found in the default_master.properties file. They can be un-commented to set them to the non-default values that will take effect upon installation. Look in the default_master.properties file for additional details.

    Your default_master.properties file should be found here:

    <js-install>/buildomatic/default_master.properties

    A sample master.properties can be found here (in the case of PostgreSQL):

    <js-install>/buildomatic/sample_conf/postgresql_master.properties

    When the js-install-ce.sh/bat script is executed (or the underlying deploy-webapp-ce ant target), these properties will set into the deployed JasperReports Server in the js.quartz.properties file.

    Report Scheduler Email Properties

    As of Release 5.5, properties have been added that will set configuration for the Report Scheduler Email properties.

    The properties that can be set are the following (default values are shown):

    quartz.mail.sender.host=mail.localhost.com

    quartz.mail.sender.port=25

    quartz.mail.sender.protocol=smtp

    quartz.mail.sender.username=admin

    quartz.mail.sender.password=password

    quartz.mail.sender.from=admin@localhost.com

    quartz.web.deployment.uri=http://localhost:8080/jasperserver

    Diagnostic Properties

    Properties which will set the configuration of the Diagnostic functionality:

    diagnostic.jmx.usePlatformServer = false

    diagnostic.jmx.port = 10990

    diagnostic.jmx.name = jasperserver

    diagnostic.jmx.rmiHost = localhost

    Look at the descriptions of the properties in the default_master.properties file and also refer to the JasperReports Server Administrator Guide for more information on these settings.
