Report Name is Missing When creating Excel data adapter

[raul.castro]

Hi, has someone any idea of the following:

When creating a datasource from excel it says Report Design not Valid: 1. Report name is missing.

And I'm not able to use Excel.

Thanks

Hi,
the error is quite self-explaining. It seems you have an empty "Report name" for your JRXML. Is it possible that for some reasons you deleted this property?
Try to edit the report name using the properties view.
This should fix the error.

Regards,
Massimo.

Thanks mrabbi,

The report does have a name under "Report Name" property.

It happens immediately after selecting the Excel File.

Here is the first few rows of the exception:

Same problem here. I'm unable to import xls or xlsx file, even with a new project.

I entered this as a bug.  I see this on both the Mac and Ubuntu.
