Error compiling a report in previous versions.

[otherkest22]

 

Hello everyone, I need your help.

I'm new to using Jaspersoft, and I'm trying to compile my report in an older version. I'm currently using Jaspersoft Studio Professional-8.1.0. I searched the documentation on how to compile for previous versions, followed the step-by-step instructions, but when I click on compile, it shows me the following error.

 

exception, Reason: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/http/HttpEntity

I have already downloaded the necessary libraries for the version I need from the internet and imported them into Jaspersoft Studio, but the error persists. It has even shown me other libraries at times. Any ideas on how I can compile it? Thank you in advance for your help.

Can you let us know what steps you followed to try to compile to a previous version as well as which previous version you were trying to compile to?

I am using JasperReport-4.5.0. To compile it in a previous version, what I did was add the libraries for Jaspersoft downloaded from the site for v4.5.0. Additionally, I added the JAR file of JasperReport-4.5.0 to the versions menu. To perform the build, I changed the .jrxml version to 4.5.0 in the menu, and in the compiler settings, I changed it to the 4.5.0 version that I added.

Hmmm. Have you played with the Compatibility settings in Jaspersoft studio? Check https://community.jaspersoft.com/documentation/jaspersoft-studio-user-guide-820/v820/setting-compatibility-earlier-versions -- if so, does the report work in JSS or is the problem only in JRS?
