I have done a clean installation of Jasper Reports Server Community Edition:  Product Version: 7.1.0, Build: 20180504_1307 on  HP MicroServer Intel® Pentium® CPU G2020T @ 2.50GHz, 2 cores OS Ubuntu16.04, Apache Tomcat/8.5.32, Java version "1.8.0_181" , Postgresql 10.5.1  logging on to the Server i jump the home page and get :8080/jasperserver/flow.html?_flowId=searchFlow not :8080/jasperserver/flow.html?_flowId=homeFlow..... I can't get the page as listed in the tutorials and seem to be stuck in a loop with this and help or ideas would be gladly received

Did you cutomized the the server config to redirect http to https ?

I can remember I had similiar issues with this when I had to redirect from http to https. 
Could not get it resloved. I had to add a landing page for the http request that had a link to the https.  

If not. Make sure in the browser that your are using that you try not connect to mutiple jasper instance. There is a Jsession cookie that is kept for jasper and this could cause issues. 
Rather open a tab incognito mode and try to access the jasper instance or use another browser, edge or firefox for each jasper instance you want to connect too, or you can clear your browser cookier history, but i do not like doing that.

Did you try clearing your web browser cache and cookies?

still having issues with the landing page on the Ubuntu 16.04 and tried to set up local instance on my Windows 10 Laptop with TIB_js-jrs-cp_7.1.0_win_x86_64.exe out of the box install but did excactly the same landing page still the wrong one... tried many browsers and of different machines and phones and tablets still the same... very frustrating as this tool is definatley my way forward...

after updating my laptop to tomcat9 ensuring java was latest edition java version "1.8.0_181" unistalling and reinstalling via TIB_js-jrs-cp_7.1.0_win_x86_64.exe I briefly landed on the home page and got the following Error UID: ee79d77b-2a8d-4bb3-90ea-d91c76413e50 does anybody have any ideas?

I feel for you sir - like I said, I had same redirect issues and it was so frustrating. 

So regarding error Error UID: ee79d77b-2a8d-4bb3-90ea-d91c76413e50 does anybody have any ideas?

There error canot be itereprted as is, you will need to look into the log file. 

Also maybe try to change to port no 
• YOUR_APAPCHE_PATH/logs
- catalina *.log, there others here migh also be of some use to you. 
• YOUR_APAPCHE_PATH/webapps/jasperserver/WEB-INF/logs
- jasperserver.log 

You will have a more useable stack trace issue.

Also maybe try and update the port no.
• YOUR_APAPCHE_PATH/conf/server.xml                         (update 8080 to 8082 or anyother open port.)
    <Connector port="8082" protocol="HTTP/1.1"
               connectionTimeout="20000"
               redirectPort="8443" />

Let me know if you got this sorted/
