Starting JasperServer: This script requires root privileges

[hesham]

Hello,

This is my second day with both tomcat and Jasperspft. so far I have installed and configured tomcat and it has started. But, i am unable to start JasperReports Server.

from this directory:

/opt/tibco/jasperreports-server-cp-6.2.0/scripts/linux

I run command

sudo ./jasperserver start

Then I get the error:

Starting JasperServer

This script requires root privileges

And from:

http://127.0.0.1:8080/manager/html

I get 3 applications:

/

host-manager

manager

When I first installed everyting I used to get a forth application `JasperServer` but does not starte then I decided to undeploy it to deploy it again but unfortunately it desappeared.

then I downloaded `jasperreports-server-cp-6.2.0-bin.zip` and extracted the WAR file from it called `jasperserver.war`. Then when I try to choose the file and deploy it from `http://127.0.0.1:8080/manager/html` then browser goes to empty page

This webpage is not available

ERR_CONNECTION_RESET

Then when I look to the file `manager.2015-12-06.log` it says the following:

06-Dec-2015 00:14:49.460 INFO [http-nio-8080-exec-1] org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationContext.log HTMLManager: list: Listing contexts for virtual host 'localhost'

I noticed the file upload size limit but the xml file configurations I found are all set to -1, which is unlimited.

one more thing, I changed jasper configuration to chnage posgresql port number to the default 5432 as I alreadjy had it installed. I did not want to use the one that comes with tomcat.

 

Please help me start the JasperReports Server (jasperserver?)

jdk8

ubuntu 14.04

Shouldn't directly deploy war file to Tomcat. Refer to the following page on installing JasperReports Server on Tomcat. Executing the script also creates necessary tables in the repository database.

 Manually Start/Stop Jasper Server on Linux:
You typically start and stop JasperReports Server at the Linux command line. Run the following commands in a
Linux shell.

If you have installed as root user then <js-install> = /opt/jasperreports-server-cp-6.2.0

Start JasperReports Server:
cd <js-install>
./ctlscript.sh start

Stop JasperReports Server:
cd <js-install>
./ctlscript.sh stop
