I have jasper server pro 4.0 up and running but need to work with the code. 1. Where can I find the actual server's java src? Previously we had consultants help tweak code in 3.7 to jive with our user database and I'd like to compare code changes in 3.7 with 4.0 and *hopefully* apply those same changes. My assumption to look in webapps/jasperserver-pro/WEB-INF/classes was incorrect. 2. Once I've editted the java source, how can I recompile, rebuild and restart the server? Thanks so much!

Hi there - I'm trying to install (not upgrade) Jasper server pro 4.0 and I keep getting these errors that might be able to be fixed with some small tweak. This may be a problem with my machine (I'm using Ubuntu 10.04), but I thought I'd try here in case someone else has come across this. For example when I run "./js-install.sh test": ./bin/do-js-install.sh: 30: [[: not found./bin/do-js-install.sh: 30: pro: not found[: 72: test: unexpected operator./bin/do-js-setup.sh: 93: [[: not found./bin/do-js-setup.sh: 93: 4: not found./bin/do-js-setup.sh: 98: [[: not found./bin/do-js-setup.sh: 103: [[: not foundWriting to log file: logs/js-install-pro_2011-02-14_14-01-10000.log[: 127: unexpected operator[: 128: Running JasperReports Server install script at 2011-02-14_14-01: unexpected operatorRunning JasperReports Server install script at 2011-02-14_14-01[: 129: unexpected operator[: 136: /usr/local/lib/jdk: unexpected operator[: 141: [test]: unexpected operator[test][: 143: Running pre-install-test-pro Ant task.: unexpected operatorRunning pre-install-test-pro Ant task.[: 143: unexpected operatorBuildfile: /home/kburns/jasperreports-server-4.0/buildomatic/build.xml [echo] Filtering properties (cleaning out blank spaces)test-pro-all-props: [echo] Checking properties: [echo] appServerType=tomcat6 [echo] appServerDir=/home/tomcat [echo] dbType=mysql [echo] dbHost=localhost [echo] dbUsername=root [echo] dbPassword=********** [echo] dbPort=3307 [echo] js.dbName=jasperserver40 [echo] sugarcrm.dbName=sugarcrm [echo] foodmart.dbName=foodmart [echo] webAppNamePro=jasperserver-procheck-dbtype-pro:test-appServerType-pro:do-pre-install-test: [echo] Checking DBMS host and port: [echo] Host localhost is OKBUILD FAILED/home/kburns/jasperreports-server-4.0/buildomatic/bin/validation.xml:276: The following error occurred while executing this line:/home/kburns/jasperreports-server-4.0/buildomatic/bin/validation.xml:42: The following error occurred while executing this line:/home/kburns/jasperreports-server-4.0/buildomatic/bin/validation.xml:88: Error: port 3307 is not reachable at host localhostTotal time: 0 seconds[: 143: Checking Ant return code: OK: unexpected operatorChecking Ant return code: OK[: 144: unexpected operator Note all the problems with "[[: not found" and "[: 144: unexpected operator" Has anyone ever come across this?

To reiterate and better explain my problem: When I open the Report Query dialogue, select JavaBean Datasource, enter com.jaspersoft.ireport.examples.beans.PersonBean, and click "read attributes", there are *NO* problems. As expected address, class, email, etc all show up. Then I select email, firstName, lastName and click "Add selected field(s)". Again, no problems, they are added and I click "OK". Now if I immediately re-open the Report Query Dialogue my selected fields are still there *HOWEVER*, the top portion is on the "Report Query" tab instead of "JavaBean Datasource". Furthermore, when I click the "JavaBean Datasource" tab, the class name is empty. Is my report showing up blank ("The report is empty") because the PersonBean is not saved and the report does not know where to get the input from? This is really confusing and frustrating. If I am doing everything correctly my report should not be blank, right?

Yes, I've decided to just blame this on open office :-)

Plz tell me hw to achieve this in iReport.Urgent! Thanks! I think it would be something like this: ($F{del_flg} == "N") ? "User Created" : "User Deleted")

I've found 2 books on amazon (with not so stunning reviews) on iReports and JasperReports. The Definitive Guide to JasperReports http://www.amazon.com/Definitive-Guide-JasperReports-Experts-Voice/dp/1590599276/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1296598169&sr=8-3 The Definitive Guide to iReport http://www.amazon.com/Definitive-Guide-iReport-Experts-Voice/dp/1590599284/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1296598477&sr=8-1 Just wondering if anyone has used these? Based on the reviews and the fact that they were both published in 2007, I'm worried they won't be that helpful.

notrolls Wrote: nice tuts. Post Edited by notrolls at 02/01/2011 06:23 Thank you. Not sure what the means though. Again, if anyone has any ideas, I'd love to hear it. The report does not have user inputs (parameters), so I am wondering if that is needed. The whole javabean usage in ireports seems to be a mystery. Is there further documentation of this hiding somewhere? (besides the official jasper pdf docs). Or perhaps a book that's been published explaining this? (ireports 4 dummies :-) Halp.

Good question... We only use Ubuntu over here :-) If this is a bug I'd just like to let jasper developers know. But maybe its open office's problem.

I am running ireport 4.0 and open office 3.2. One of my fields is a BigDecimal that gets displayed simply as $F{moneyField}. "Blank when null" is selected and my display pattern is "###0.00;-###0.00" When exporting to various file formats not everything loads properly. In some cases (ods, xlsx) the value has an apostrophe at the beginning "'350.00", docx simply crashes open office and rtf shows up blank pdf - good excel - good csv - good docx - *crashes open office* rtf - opens blank flash - good odt - good ods - bad xlsx - bad Any ideas on how to fix this? Perhaps my settings for the $F{moneyField} need to be tweaked? Thanks kb

Hi Giulio - Thanks for the info! This actually helps me a lot. I've set up the basic stuff you suggested up to #4. At this point I am not sure what you are refering to with the "outline view". How can I see this view? I've created a blank template and I see that the middle of the report has a band called "Detail 1". I've added a text field there that contains $F{firstName}. I believe this is all I need. When I run this report I end up at a blank page that says "The report is empty." Based on the code in PersonBean.java and PersonBeansDataSource.java, I would have expected to see 3 rows with "Aldo", "Giovanni", "Giacomo" Code here: http://jasperforge.org/scm/viewvc.php/trunk/iReport/ireport-designer/src/com/jaspersoft/ireport/examples/beans/PersonBean.java?root=ireportfornetbeans&view=markup http://jasperforge.org/scm/viewvc.php/trunk/iReport/ireport-designer/src/com/jaspersoft/ireport/examples/PersonBeansDataSource.java?root=ireportfornetbeans&view=markup Thanks kb

I am having the same "jsexception.resource.of.type.not.found" problem with ireport 4.0. Any ideas here? The original post was from 2009, someone must have some suggestions.

There seems to be a severe lack of information on using javabeans with ireports. I've been looking through the documentation and scouring the internet for random people's blogs and messageboard comments, but haven't had much luck. I am just getting started using iReport 4.0 and looking for a very basic Hello World javabean ireport implementation. Specifically I'd like to see how input/parameters are passed to the bean. After I grasp this, I'm interested in creating a report that has a multi select input (checkboxes). This would be passed to the bean (as a Collection, I presume) and then processed. Pretty simple stuff, I think. Can anyone help with this? Or point me to somewhere that can help? Thanks so much! kb

Yes, where can I find a basic theme to play with?

I see the parameter definition in my jrxml file... <parameter name="brief4" class="java.lang.String"> <defaultValueExpression><![CDATA[brief4]]></defaultValueExpression> </parameter> But no way to remove it via ireports? There must be a away to do this right? I don't think a user should be expected to edit an xml file each time they need to remove a parameter from a report.

Hi all - I am using iReport Designer Pro 4.0 and wondering how to remove/delete an available parameter created in the report query dialogue window. Is this possible? Right now I am experimenting with iReports and have created a bunch of test parameters. I can easily dump my report and start over, but I'd like to know if I am capable of removing these. If not, I think it would be a really handy and useful feature. Thanks! kb

Hi all - Many of the Jasper related events I've heard of seem to be focused on the end users. Outside of events happening at the JasperWorld conference, I am in search of events, talks, classes and seminars directed towards those of us coding java and developing reports. Any ideas? Thanks! kb

Hi there - First off I must preface with a warning that I am brand new to the world of jasper. Ok. I understand that there are templates that can be used/created for reports (ie the coffee table one) to give them a certain look and feel. Similarly, is it possible to create a skin/theme for the actual jaspersoft server that users log into to run reports? And if so, are there places to download free ones? (I have yet to find any) Thanks! kb
