christoph.hoeller Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 I've got a report that depends on data from input controls but those input controls are only shown for the admin. When I change to a user account, the report opens and displays "You must apply input values before the report can be displayed." without ever showing the input controls. When I click the button the window opens but it doesn't have any controls in it. I changed permissions on the folder to "Administer" for user accounts but it still only works for the admin. Any ideas? There's no error message or anything. It just works with the admin and doesn't with the user. Update: Apparently this has something to do with a link to a JAR file with a font extension for PDF. If I remove the link the input controls are being displayed again. As soon as I add the link (and thus enable PDF exporting with the correct font) the input controls are gone. Can anybody explain this? SOLUTION: The JAR I was linking to was in a directory only accessible by admins. I added that JAR to the actual Report Unit and it fixed the problem. Not sure why a font could affect input controls or why it's impossible to give proper user feedback, but you know, it's Jasper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arif3hosain Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 wWen you set permission to administrator it works for admin. So first of all, change permission and role to what you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hller Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Thanks for your input, arif3hosain, but I both changed the permission ("I changed permissions on the folder to "Administer" for user accounts but it still only works for the admin.") and posted the actual solution to the problem.
