Jaspersoft Studio filename sytnax error

[gunnard.fredrickson]

Jaspersoft Studio 6.3 was recently installed on my work pc.  I am trying to upgrade from Jaspersoft iReports 5.1.  The reports will work in iReports 5.1, but when I try and run the same report in Jaspersoft Studio 6.3.  I get an error message.  The error message says that the Filename, directory, or volume label synax is wrong.  Like I said, the same report runs in iReports without a problem.  Any suggestions?

Have you tried running Jaspersoft Studio in 5.1 compatibility mode?

Windows -> Preferences -> Jaspersoft Studio -> Compatibility. in Jrxml Version drop down list, select JasperReports 5.1

I did try that and it did not work either.

This is Taylor, I work with Gunnard.  I am further troubleshooting this issue.

To provide more information, the text of error we are receiving is

An internal error occurred during: "Preview: cnctZGV2Ymkx:/reports/CompAnalysis/AnnualDepAvg:aHR0cDovL3J3LWRldmJpMTo4MDgwL2phc3BlcnNlcnZlci8KaGFtbWVybGluZwo= on ".

java.lang.NullPointerException

 

This is a screenshot of the error

 

Also, If I dig into the error in the report state tab, I get the following information

 

The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect

 

java.io.IOException: The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect

at org.eclipse.core.internal.jobs.Worker.run(Worker.java:55)

Here is a screenshot of that error.

 

To produce this error i

1) installed jaspersoft studio 6.31 on my pc using the windows installer

2) added our dev server to the repository explorer, it would only add it once i checked "use soap only" under advanced settings

3) browsed to the report I wanted to run

4) right clicked on the report's main jrxml file, and clicked "run report unit"

 

Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated!

I have also dug into the log file located on my machine at

c:users%username%JaspersoftWorkspace.metadata.log

and found the following error corresponding with each attempt to run the report.

I am also facing the exact same error message. Has anyone found a workaround? If so, please share with me.

Hi there,

unfortunately I have the same problem with version 6.3.1.final :-(. Did someone find a solution so far? I can't imagin, that there is no workaround or solution available for this issue. Any hint is welcome! Thanks!
