Hi, is it possible to set the pdf export encoding dynamically e.g. using parameters? I want my report to be valid for a lot of countries including central european and cyrilic but I can only set the pdf encoding once. Even worse- my report has tabular layout and one of the columns is always english = encoding 1252 or 1250. Is there any way to achieve this? thanks in advance, Thomas

Hi all, unfortunateley I am not able to solve the following problem: I have a main-report that fetches data through jdbc from a postgres database- standalone working (=ireport preview). I want to include a subreport- also standalone working. This subreport has almost only static data, labels, text and should be an extra page as a fax answer for our clients. The few relevant data I want to display dynamically should be provided using (input) parameter. If I put them together I run into the java heap space error... Error.log is attached as are the jrxml report files. Any help would be appreciated! thanks, thomas

hi all, I have a working report with a bar3DChart on the bottom. The reports provides a ranking. But if only one entry exists the chart really looks ugly, in case I have 10 entries I need the whole page width. Is there a way to use some sort of dynamic width for the chart? any help appreciated! thanx, Thomas

Thanks for your answer. I'll be looking for it.

Hi, I am trying the latest release of JasperStudio and I am wondering how to connect to an existing JasperReports Server Repository. How can I achieve that? There are a lot of existing reports and resoources that I need to access. Without such a connection I have to stay with the Netbeans based iReport. Thanks for your answers! Thomas

hi, thanks a lot! Your hint to "set the text field to Styled" solved my problem! Thomas

hi all, is it possible to have a report display elements from database that were stored formatted? e.g. html or xhtml or xml or ??? I have some "classic" elements for reporting in the database (postgres) and also parts where the enduser should be able to have at least limited means of formatting (wysiwyg editor as frontend on some webpage). We are working on a bunch of directives for abot 15 countries providing their relevant directives in local languages. Maybe someone has other ideas to implement it. Any hint is very welcome! thanks thomas

Hi, concerning the report schedule output file name also I would like to know if it is possible to use parameters of the job schedule as part of the output file name. e.g.: Parameter 1 = 'Partner38' => output file name = 'Partner38_report_20100101.pdf' That would be very helpful! Thanks, Thomas

as mentioned sometime in the past I should make an "enhancement request in Tracker". As this is the first time I would try to do so are there any docs to get informed what to do and how it was best to do it. Sorry but so far i would not know exactly what I should do or not. thanks Thomas

Thanks Yash for your quick answer but I (think I) already know the possible parameters. In my case it was the easiest to export almost everything =all but the jobs. thats what I am looking for.

is it possible to exclude job resources? this was helpful to keep test-environment up do date with production. currently i am running js-export --everything --output-zip xy.zip thanks in advance! Post Edited by moz at 08/04/2009 12:13

thanks for your hint! It seems working well now. Also for me it is the easier way for updates. If I put load the jar up to the repository as a resource and I use this resource in reports "use existing resource from repository" is it necessary to update the report itself after changing the jar repository file as well? - do I need to click through all options/ escpecially the "resource/input control" page in jasperserver web-frontend to get the latest changes from the jar from the repository?

??? after stopping the jasperserver and waiting some minutes and a restart -now its working as expected. I am confused- looks like problems with my scriptlet-jar that affects the whole machine? Post Edited by moz at 07/28/2009 09:42

yes -I put the jar file in the classpath (=jasperserver/WEB-INF/lib directory) and also yes- I defined it as a resource in ireport-nb. This morning all went fine but after some changes in the scriptlet and the jrxml file and respectively updates in the repository and on the server the same problems occurs again. excpetion: com.jaspersoft.jasperserver.api.JSExceptionWrapper: net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JRException: Errors were encountered when compiling report expressions class file:1. vmg.utils.VmgDateCalc cannot be resolved to a type value = (java.lang.String)(((vmg.utils.VmgDateCalc)parameter_REPORT_SCRIPTLET.getValue()).whereclause()); //$JR_EXPR_ID=4$ <------------------->2. vmg.utils.VmgDateCalc cannot be resolved to a type value = (java.lang.String)(((vmg.utils.VmgDateCalc)parameter_REPORT_SCRIPTLET.getValue()).whereclause()); //$JR_EXPR_ID=4$ <------------------->3. vmg.utils.VmgDateCalc cannot be resolved to a type value = (java.lang.String)(((vmg.utils.VmgDateCalc)parameter_REPORT_SCRIPTLET.getValue()).whereclause()); //$JR_EXPR_ID=4$ <------------------->3 errors I updated the scriptlet-jars using winscp and the jrxml file and also the scriptlet-jar resource in the repository using ireport-nb via the jasperserver plugin. Maybe there are problems with some caching or updates via jasperserver-plugin or jvm itself if there are more then one or two updates??? thanks, Thomas

It has been a while that I asked for this "report bursting" feature. Any news on this subject? I have seen some JAVA Code as a command-line tool and tried to develop something on my own with the help of a friend who is familiar with JAVA. Both workarounds were not perfect. The best thing I could imagine at the moment- we will need about 50-100 reports scheduled at about the end of month- was to schedule these using the web-interface of jasperserver and save the jobs with corresponding parameters while the report itself is always the same jrxml.
