newbie installation/classpath problem

2003-05-21 16:25

Hi, I'm having some trouble getting JasperReports running under Tomcat, with JVM 1.3.1. When I try the report design compilation jsp example (./demo/samples/webapp/compile.html), I get a dori.jasper.engine.JRException at at dori.jasper.engine.design.JRCompiler.compileReport(JRCompiler.java:148). At the same time, in the window I started up Tomcat in, I get messages stating ...reports/WebappReport.java:4: package dori.jasper.engine does not exist - yet I do have the JasperReports ./classes directory in Tomcat's classpath, and dori.jasper.engine is under there - don't understand why this package is not found - can someone point me in the right direction?

Hi,

 

If you do not have the JasperReports JAR under the

WEB-INF/lib directory, then you have to adapt the

code in the compile.jsp and CompileServlet.java files,

to alter the value for the "jasper.reports.compile.class.path" system property

used there.

 

I hope this helps.
