Cannot install Jasper Report Server

[jmaia]

 Hi there,

I'm new to Jasper and I've been trying to install Jasper Report Server, with no success.

I'm using a Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard, so I first downloaded the 64-bit version, and tried to install it but there was an error. After trying several times I downloaded the 32-bit version and had the same problem. 

I'm installing the bundled Tomcat (port 8888 - 8080 is already taken on my server - and 8005), and the bundled PostgresSQL. It's when the PostgresSQL is installing that I have the problem. 

I tried installing on port 5432 and on another port with no success, I also tried installing the sample databases and leaving them out of the installation with no success. 

The error is below (this is what I get from installation.log).

Can anyone give me a hand, please ?

Regards,

Joao Maia

Hi

I have exactly this same issue, installing on Windows 2008 Basic server, on a 32 bit server. I am a local admin on the machine.

We have installed this several times on other servers with no problems. I have tried the 4.7.1. release from yesterday, and get the same issue.

Any help greatfully received!

We got this working!

 

It turns out postgres needs more rights than we had. We ended up installing the whole application on a seperate drive where we had Full Control rights.

Hope that helps
