Unable to run Subreport on iReport version 3.5.0

[srikuba]

Hello,

I was trying to use a subreport with an older version of iReport 2.0.4. I had few problems like 'Could not load object from location..'. I could resolve that by upgrading to the newer version of iReport and ive copied the jasper report jar as well for the lastest version.

After the upgrade I no more have the previous error message but the application is throwing the following message.

My jrxml file starts with the following lines.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE jasperReport PUBLIC "//JasperReports//DTD Report Design//EN" "http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/dtds/jasperreport.dtd">
<jasperReport xmlns="http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/jasperreports" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/jasperreports http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/xsd/jasperreport.xsd" name="reportName" pageWidth="595" pageHeight="842" columnWidth="535" leftMargin="30" rightMargin="30" topMargin="20" bottomMargin="20">

The exception says 'xmlns' must be declared although I have it declared.

Any suggestion will be of great help.

If you use the XSD/schemaLocation in the JRXML, remove the DOCTYPE DTD reference.

HTH,

If I take out the line <!DOCTYPE jasperReport PUBLIC "//JasperReports//DTD Report Design//EN" "http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/dtds/jasperreport.dtd">
, I get the following error message on report compilation: [jrc] net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JRException: No report compiler set for language : null

iReport 3.5.0 compiles reports OK, but when I try to compile them with ant, I get one of these messages. Never have managed to go past them.

Reports compile and run OK with 2.0.2 version. I would like to pass to v. 3.5.0 to be able to use javascript. What should be modified in build.xml file or somwhere else to be able to compile correctly?

 

 

[lucianc]

Which JR version are you using to compile the report?  Could you post the updated JRXML?

Regards,

Lucian

Lucian,

I have used two versions, 3.5.0 and now 3.5.1 . Reports created with iReport 2.0.2 compile OK. Reports 2.0.2 retouched with iReport 3.5.x do not.

I have compared JRXML files for the same report (I attach both versions of the same report).

2.0.2:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"  ?>
<!-- Created with iReport - A designer for JasperReports -->
<!DOCTYPE jasperReport PUBLIC "//JasperReports//DTD Report Design//EN" "http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/dtds/jasperreport.dtd">
<jasperReport
         name="DossiersEtapeDocuments"

        ....
 

3.5.x:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<jasperReport xmlns="http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/jasperreports" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/jasperreports http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/xsd/jasperreport.xsd" name="DossiersEtapeDocuments" pageWidth="595" pageHeight="842" columnWidth="595" leftMargin="0" rightMargin="0" topMargin="0" bottomMargin="0">

Hello,

 

Also the subreports seems to work fine when run locally. But I need to place the code on a remote machine. When i do this, the main report complains that it cannot find the sub report. Is there anything obvious that I am missing.

It is running ok on my machine. Do we need to set anything on remote machine for my subreports to work?

 

Thanks

srikuba,

You have to pass SUBREPORT_DIR from parent to children reports.

Also, I add the following line in HttpServlet's doGet method:

        parameterMap.put("SUBREPORT_DIR", reportLocation.toString() + "/");

Lucian,

I have purged 2.0.2 references from CLASSPATH system variable (I have forgotten they were there) and now it works better.

Hi Prosvet / Lucian;

Can you please let me know what changes you made?  I am having the same issue.

1. I was using jasperreports0.5 earlier and upgraded to jasperreports3.0
2. I'm using ireport3.0 and i can open xml file in irport and can compile reports after modifing from irport.

• I want to make some general changes in report xml files.  so i written java program to make these changes using Jasper API and saving back to same file.
• When i save these file after changes,  it removes DOCTYPE tag and adding xmlns tags.
• This is creating problem in compilation.   Stacktrace is shown below:
