Changes in 8.2 That May Affect Your Upgrade
• | Users are able to upgrade from 8.1 Compact to 8.2 Compact using samedb and newdb. |
• | Users are able to upgrade from 8.1 Split to 8.2 Split using samedb and newdb. |
• | Users will not be able to upgrade: |
• | From 8.1 Compact to 8.2 Split. |
• | From 8.1 Split to 8.2 Compact. |
If users need 8.2 Split installations but they are on 8.1 Compact, the required upgrade path is to:
1. Upgrade 8.1 Compact to 8.2 Compact.
2. Then, migrate from 8.2 Compact to 8.2 Split.
For more information on these installation options, see the Installation and Upgrade guides.
Newdb Upgrade Note
Currently, the js-upgrade-newdb.sh/bat script does not import the access, audit, monitoring data when upgrading.
However, once the upgrade process has completed, you can use the JRS UI - Import page to re-import the JRS export file that was passed in with the newdb script and select the check boxes for including access, audit and monitoring data. Once this import has completed, then the access, audit, monitoring data will exist in the new database/release.
UI Customizations Note
If you had any customizations done for your UI (JavaScript and CSS files), you will have to first perform the JasperReports Server upgrade, then get the JasperReports Server Source Packages, apply customizations in the UI source files, rebuild them and publish into the upgraded JasperReports Server.
Simba Driver Removal
As of release 8.0.4, Simba drivers are removed from JasperReports Server.
If you have any resources that use or depend on any of the following Simba Drivers:
• | athena-jdbc42 2.0.33.1003 |
• | cassandra-jdbc42 2.0.13.1014 |
• | impala-jdbc42 2.6.26.1031 |
• | neo4j-jdbc42 |
• | spark-jdbc42 2.6.22.1040 |
then you must manually install publicly available drivers (for example, Athena and Cassandra have the same Simba drivers publicly available). For other drivers, you must obtain the drivers which are recommended by the database vendor. After installing new drivers, update the resources in JasperReports Server to use the new drivers.
