Folks, I am a newbie to jasper reports and am finding difficulty in compiling jrxml file. Unfortunately, googling and hunting for info in this forum has not helped me. I have created a simple test class file as shown in the code, But I get the foll exception while trying to compile : net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JRRuntimeException: Error creating SAX parser at net.sf.jasperreports.engine.xml.JRReportSaxParserFactory.createParser(JRReportSaxParserFactory.java:109) at net.sf.jasperreports.engine.xml.JRXmlDigesterFactory.createParser(JRXmlDigesterFactory.java:1320) at net.sf.jasperreports.engine.xml.JRXmlDigesterFactory.createDigester(JRXmlDigesterFactory.java:1295) at net.sf.jasperreports.engine.xml.JRXmlLoader.load(JRXmlLoader.java:199) at net.sf.jasperreports.engine.xml.JRXmlLoader.load(JRXmlLoader.java:164) at net.sf.jasperreports.engine.xml.JRXmlLoader.load(JRXmlLoader.java:148) at net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JasperCompileManager.compileReportToFile(JasperCompileManager.java:85) at JasperTest.main(JasperTest.java:15) Caused by: org.xml.sax.SAXNotRecognizedException: http://java.sun.com/xml/jaxp/properties/schemaLanguage at org.apache.xerces.framework.XMLParser.setProperty(XMLParser.java:1714) at org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser.setProperty(SAXParser.java:770) at org.apache.xerces.jaxp.SAXParserImpl.setProperty(SAXParserImpl.java:190) at net.sf.jasperreports.engine.xml.JRReportSaxParserFactory.configureParser(JRReportSaxParserFactory.java:140) at net.sf.jasperreports.engine.xml.JRReportSaxParserFactory.createParser(JRReportSaxParserFactory.java:104) ... 7 more I designed the jrxml with ireport 3.6.1 and using jasperreports-3.6.1.jar in my classpath along with dependent jars(commons-collection, digester, logging). I also tried adding xerces(and related jars like xercesImpl, xml-apis, etc) jars in classpath, but unable to solve the issue. Any pointers would be highly appreciated. Cheers! Code:import net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JasperCompileManager;import net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JasperReport;public class JasperTest { public static void main(String args[]) { try { // JRProperties.setProperty(JRProperties.COMPILER_XML_VALIDATION, false); // JasperDesign jasperDesign = // JRXmlLoader.load("\mypath\report1.jrxml"); JasperCompileManager.compileReport("\mypath\report1.jrxml"); } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); } }}
