[bug in japser 3.5.1]

I have two Jasper Pro versions 3.5 and 3.7 in my system.

After building and deploying the 3.5 code when I execute a report, I also got below error

"java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: net.sf.jasperreports.engine.component.DefaultComponentManager.setDesignConverter(Lnet/sf/jasperreports/engine/component/ComponentDesignConverter;)V"

After spending lot of time i discovered that it was due to ANT_HOME property set to ANT tool present in Jasper 3.7 code base rather than 3.5.

The solution was to rebuild the code with appropriate version of ANT and restarting the server with correct ANT_HOME value

[Alignment problem in barchart]

Matt,

I tried wtih  above mentined  option like  Go to Chart Properties > Chart Data > Details > Select the series > Replace the content of "Series" with empty string "".

 

Then Bar chart X-axis values are displaying exactly center of the bar  but Chart legend not displayed and all bars in the chart displayed with same colour.

I have to show th legend and bars with different colors.

refer the attached  With-workaround.jpg.

 

Is there any workaround to fix these problems?

We are using JasperServer Professional 3.5.1  WebService (WSClient.java) functionality to deploy the reports.

The JasperServer is deployed in WebLogic 9.2.3 and JDK1.5. We are able to deploy the report, but during this process in WebLogic DOS Window we are getting NPE, from this stack trace we are not able to make out what is the cause of this error.

[how to implementing css to JasperServer]

Hi anandharaj,

As per your comment the CSS properties needs to be specified in the JRXML file during design, what if we want to apply custom CSS for the HTML report during runtime (dynamically based on the user), do you have any idea how we achieve that functionality

I did not find the auditing feature even in JS 3.5, is there any plan to implement the same in near future

[Domain Security using tenantId]

Or you can try this

 

((com.jaspersoft.jasperserver.multipleTenancy.MTWebAuthenticationDetails)(org.acegisecurity.context.SecurityContextHolder.getContext().getAuthentication().getDetails())).getTenantId()

[How do i get Logged in Information on Custom jsp]

I have not used cascading input.

 

 

Is there any cascading input control patch? I don't know about it, can you share the details here, it will be helpful for other guys who are discussing about the same at

 

http://jasperforge.org/plugins/espforum/view.php?group_id=112&forumid=102&topicid=32709

 

 

Do you tried Cascading Input Control patch. I try a bit but stuck at how i get the HTTP value to run the report.

 

[How do i get Logged in Information on Custom jsp]

 

This should work

SecurityContextHolder.getContext().getAuthentication().getPrincipal();

 

-----or------

 

(UserDetails(SecurityContextHolder.getContext().getAuthentication().getPrincipal() )).getUsername()

[label localization in input controls]

 

Thanks Lucian,

 

 

My basic understating of ResourceBundle class was wrong; I was under the impression that we can pass only the .prop file name as resouceBundle. This indeed is an eye opener for me, this will solve my problem

[label localization in input controls]

 

Thanks Lucian,

Actually I was looking for some magical approach!!!! which does not require modifying the core JasperReport code (like using scriptlet, or config changes etc…).

 

If we extend ResourceBundle then we need to modify the JasperReports code like JRResourcesUtil.java and also we loose the flexibility of using ResourceBundle for few reports, which I want to avoid.

 

Actually I have modified JRFillDataset.java file to read localization data from Database if resourceBundle attribute is not mentioned in JRXML, but I am looking for cleaner and less intrusive approach to get localization data from other than .prop file.

[label localization in input controls]

 

Thanks Sherman.

 

I think it was a mistake on my part to ask this question in JasperServer forum, rather I should have asked this question in JasperReports forum, because my question was more to do with JasperReports than JasperServer :-)

 

We upload the JRXML files along with related files like resource bundles, images etc…, when report is executed the resource bundles are loaded by JasperServer using the JasperReports method called loadResourceBundle(..) in the net.sf.jasperreports.engine.util.JRResourcesUtil class, I believe this is the default behavior of JasperServer

 

The ReloadableResourceBundleMessageSource bean in applicationContext.xml reads the JasperServer properties not the Report resource bundle data!

 

If my above understanding is correct, now my question is how do we tell the JasperServer/Reports to read property values (related to a report) from say database instead of resource bundle?

[delete or modify specific datasources, reports]

 

If your aim is to delete resources in JasperServer without using either JasperServer-UI or iReport, then you could probably write a simple Java class with main method that will call JasperServer WebService to delete the resource. This class can be bundled as a jar file with dependencies, and can be executed from .cmd or .sh by passing required arguments

 

 

You can refer to JasperServer-Web-Services-Guide.pdf for more details on JasperServer WebService

[label localization in input controls]

 

Continuing on this discussion

 

Is there any way to support localization other than through resource bundle?

 

For example reading localization data from database and passing that data to JasperServer during execution using scriptlet or some other mechanism?

 

In a large enterprise application it can become nightmare to maintain hundreds of resource bundles

[Configuring Custom Authentication in JasperServer]

Hi Sheman, Your inputs really helped me, thanks.

First thing I was not using JIAuthenticationSynchronizer, and second I had forgotten to run unit tests, which would populate the jasperserver metadata.

[Where can i find the War file installation?]

You can download the src from http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=162962&package_id=195243&release_id=642675

There are 2 ways to build the code one is using ANT scripts and another is MAVEN scripts  (both the build scripts have dependency on each other)

For maven based build follow the instructions provided in JasperServer-Source-Build-Guide.pdf, which is part of the source code

For ANT based build follow the steps provided in Buildomatic-Auto-Build-Steps.txt

I found the MAVEN based build process to be simple.

[Configuring Custom Authentication in JasperServer]

Hi,

My project requirement is to support authentication based on request parameters, i.e the user details are part of URL, for example http://localhost:8080/jasperserver?USER_NAME=admin&CLIENT_ID=abc

(I know this is not a good practice, and there are security issues as well)

After doing some hard work!!!, I have reached the stage where the repositoryExplorerFlow page is displayed, but in that page except the menu and icons nothing else is displayed like  Folders and Contents of:

Please let me know what could be the reason, I have attached the source code and config file.
