Logging into JasperReports Server

This documentation is an older version of JasperReports Server Community Project Installation Guide. View the latest documentation.

After JasperReports Server starts up, log in by going to this URL:

http://<hostname>:8080/jasperserver

Example:

http://localhost:8080/jasperserver

http://jasperserver.example.com:8080/jasperserver

The login page appears after compiling the necessary JSP files (this will take a few moments).

Use the following credentials to log into JasperReports Server:

User ID	Password	Description
		Administrator for the default organization

If you logged in successfully, your JasperReports Server home page appears.

When you complete the evaluation or testing of your JasperReports Server instance, change the administrator password (jasperadmin) and remove any sample end-users. Leaving the default passwords and end-users in place weakens the security of your installation.

Refer to the TIBCO JasperReports Server User Guide to begin adding reports and other objects to the server.

JasperReports Server Heartbeat

After your initial login, you're asked to opt in to the JasperReports Server Heartbeat. The heartbeat helps Jaspersoft understand customer installation environments to improve our products. If you choose to enable the heartbeat, an HTTPS call at server startup time sends information like this to Jaspersoft:

•

Operating System and JVM type and version

•

Application Server and Database type and version

•

JasperReports Server type and version

•

Unique, anonymous identifier value

You can manually enable or disable the heartbeat by modifying the following property file jasperserver/WEB-INF/js.config.properties. To disable the heartbeat, set the heartbeat.enabled property to false:

heartbeat.enabled=false

For additional information about enabling and disabling the heartbeat component, see the JasperReports Server Community Project Administrator Guide.
