Error printing report.

[mwithi]

I'm working with iReport-3.0.0 and I'm very happy because it works very fine.

By the way, today I got a problem I had also in the past, developing my application in Eclipse: when I execute my report and I launch printing from the jasperviewer it shows an error message. In the terminal I can read the message in the code window.

I tried changing many settings but with no success. I'm very frustrated because I've not changed anything in my system, no updates, just computer reboot.

Maybe it's important to notice that the same report in the eclipse application works fine and print also.

What's wrong?
Thank you,

I've just solved now by switching my system java version to 6 (I've both installed). Moreover in Eclipse I work with java5 environment and jasper's libraries work as well.

 

Again: what's wrong?
