iReport 5.5.1 Doesn't Load

[phame]

Hi,

I'm totally new with iReport. I downloaded and installed iReport designer 5.5.1 on Windows 8.1, Java jdk 1.8.0. Both Windows OS and Java are 64-bit version. No installation errors.

However, when I try to run iReport, it tries to load,  a popup iReport logo window appears, then disappeas with no errors.

In the popup window lower left hand corner a message says "Loading cached objects...". Nothing else happens.

Have anyone successfully run iReport in Windows 8.1 with latest JAVA version? Or I did something else I need to do?

Thanks,

E.

Hola Phame,

I tried to load Ireport 5.5.1 or 5.5.0 too, but i didn't have succesfull in that, however I uninstalled JDK8 and I installed JDK7u55 and Ireport loaded.

may be it's a bug, or that software doesn't have a good function for JDK8

 

Thanks.

Evidentemente no corre Ireport con JDK8, desinstalé JDK8 e instalé JDK7u55, al parecer IReport no tiene soporte con JDK8.

 

Saludos a todos los que han tenido este problema.

Maybe, you can update a file, ireport.conf, that file is in JasperSoftiReport-5.5.0etcireport.conf inside of Program Files.

Update the contain on default location of JDK/JRE section on #jdkhome="/path/to/jdk" parameter.

Write you JDK Path with previous version. Not 8.

Tal vez tengas que actualizar tu archivo, se encuentra dentro de tu instalación de Ireport. Modifica el archivo ireport.conf  en la seccion  #jdkhome="/path/to/jdk"

ramsc2,

 

Thank you. I'll give it a try with your suggestions.

This did it. Explicitly redirected launcher (via ireport.conf) to JDK 7 instead of JDK 8 (jdkhome="C:Program FilesJavajdk1.7.0_21") and restarted...worked like a charm. Thanks so much.

Hello, I'm new user of iReports, but i can assure you, that with jdk 8 version iDesigner not working.

Changed path to 7 version of JDK, and it started.

Not working setup:

jdkhome="C:Program FilesJavajdk1.8.0_75"

nor default setup with JDK 8 installed:

# default location of JDK/JRE, can be overridden by using --jdkhome <dir> switch
#jdkhome="/path/to/jdk"

Working setup:

jdkhome="C:Program FilesJavajdk1.7.0_75"

Probé el Jaspersoft iReport Designer 5.6.0  tampoco cargaba con jdk 8.

Instale la version jdk-7u79 y levantó sin problemas.

Saludos.

Tried the Jaspersoft iReport Designer 5.6.0 It It didn't work con jdk 8.

Then Installed the jdk-7u79 version and load it with no problems.

Greetings.
