New user question - how to create a report in community edition.

[jlittle2]

I have previously used iReport with an embeded viewer.

Now I have installed jasper 5.5 report server free edition, and cant work out how to create a report.  The only documentation I can find ( http://community.jaspersoft.com/documentation/jasperreports-server-user-guide/v550/getting-started-page  ) has features which I cant find in this eidtion, e.g. there is no getting started page, and no ad-hoc report tool.  The documentation only seems to cover these two things, I cant find documentation which says how to create a report, or how to get started, with jasper server community edition.

I can add a data source to jasper server, and I can create a report in ireport with a different data source, but I cant find any user guide, starter guide or tutorial on how to combine the two.

Sorry for the beginner question.

Also, what exactly is the library?

After installing the server, it took me a long time to find out what the username and password was (jasperadmin/jasperadmin for other new users).

Note also, when I clicked on "preview" button at the bottom of this post, it said "page not found" and I had to type the entire question in again.

If you want to create a report, you should be looking at Jaspersoft Studio.

Look  at the following page for the overview.

Perfect, thanks. I had no idea that studio was the new iReport - I automatically assumed anything outside of the community report server was commercial (i.e. millions of pounds type licencing).
