THis is almost completely resolved. Part of this problem was caused by attempting to use dashes and spaces, which is my fault. Error messages not being logged is certainly not helpful, either.

My environment is Jasper Reports Server 5.2 on Windows Server 2008, the PC desktop is Windows 7 64-bit, IE 10, Java 8u25, Jasper data resource is an MS SQL Server 2005 database. Our application server is JBoss 5.1.0. I've been experiencing bizarre behavior attempting to create a simple domain. In Jasper, my user name has Role_Administrator rights. When I attempt to create the derived table in the Domain Designer by clicking the "Save" button, nothing happens. The derived table is not created. Next, I logout and back into jasper as JasperAdmin, and the result is the same. The derived table is not created. As a last resort, I logout JasperAdmin and back into jasper as superuser, and the result is the same. The derived table is not created. How do I go about looking for clues such as error messages in log files, etc.? The JBoss boot.log and server.log haven't been written to since the post-backup 5 am reboot. Is there somewhere on my desktop PC that I can look for clues? Windows event logs do capture anything related to Jasper. Another point of interest is that about a month ago, I experienced the extremely bizarre behavior of not being ablt to create a domain with the users as related above, but I also had the experience where first, one user would work, but not the others. Continuing in the same session, after about 10 minutes, superuser and JasperAdmin were working properly, but not my userid. In fact, I could not see the "About JasperReports Server" link in the lower left corner after logging in as superuser! Since then, my PC was replaced on 11/12/14 with with a new one, same model, same Windows 7 64-bit OS. Please, if anyone can give me any insights, suggestions, recommendations, etc., on how to debug this situation I will most gratefully and sincerely appreciate your help. Thank you for your consideration!

My Master_default.properties file contains appServerType = jboss appServerDir = E:\DOA_SMS\jboss-5.1.0 dbType=sqlserver dbHost=phlsql.phl.org dbUsername=sa dbPassword=sa+pwd dbPort=1433 maven.jdbc.version=1.6-2206.100

The Oracle database is resourced from HTTPS port 8543. I created another JBoss service using HTTPS port 8545 by modifying bindings-jboss-beans.xml. There are errors in run.log, boot.log, and server.log. However, I do not speak Java and I'm frustrated by trying to google them. I wish I could upload them for someone to read but .... Anyway, this is from run.log and I have no idea what it means: DEPLOYMENTS IN ERROR: Deployment "vfsfile:/E:/DOA_SMS/jboss-5.1.0/server/default/deploy/jmx-remoting.sar/" is in error due to the following reason(s): java.lang.IllegalStateException: BaseClassLoader@1a56d3e{vfsfile:/E:/jboss-5.1.0/server/default/deploy/jmx-remoting.sar/} classLoader is not connected to a domain (probably undeployed?) for class javax.management.remote.rmi.RMIServerImpl_Stub I sincerely appreciate any help you can give, even if it just points me in the correct direction.

On my Windows 2008 front-end server, I have a JBoss-5.1.0 app server service running, and JRS 5.2 resourced to an Oracle database. I'm trying to add an additional JBoss-5.1.0 app server service configured to use a different ports-binding scheme, and resource another JRS 5.2 implementation to an MS SQL Server 2005 database. I'm not having much success. I can create, install, and start the JBoss service, and I can create the "jasperserver" database on the SQL Server, but I cannot connect to JRS via the browser. Does anyone have any insight as to how I might accomplish my task? Thank you for your consideration and I look forward to your hearing thoughts on this.

With regards to my original post, my requirements are to be able to display currency as US dollar ("$") amounts when executing the report in JapserReports Server 4.7 and when the report is exported "as XSLX" from Jasper. After trying several suggestions found elsewhere in this community, including the suggestion of copying the "adhoc_masks.properties" to "adhoc_masks_en_US.properties" there's only one solution I've found that works. It's found in my original post above: Go back to iReport and change the pattern from "Currency" to "Custom" and specify the Custom Pattern to be "$#,##0.00; ($#,##0.00)" with the spaces removed from between the "$" and "#". The report will now properly display the "$" when executed from your JasperReports Server browser session and exported "as XSLX".

Many thanks for your response! EN_US vs EN is important! BTW, exactly where is that location? Is it in the iReport 4.7.0 folder structure on the PC? Or is it in the JasperReport Server 4.7.0 folder structure on the server? Does it need to be changed in both installations?

I worked around the problem. The solution dawned on me as I was looking at an old Oracle DiscovererBI Report. There should be no space between the "$" currency symbol and the first digit! The problem source is the Currency Pattern "¤ #,##0.00" in iReport. So I used the Custom Pattern option "¤#,##0.00" without the space. It works as expected in iReport Preview mode and running it from the Repository Navigator. However, it still did not work when running it logged into JasperReports Server via a browser. I went back to iReport and changed the pattern from "Currency" to "Custom" specifying the Custom Pattern to be "$#,##0.00" and it now properly displays the "$" when logged into JasperReports Server.

Environment: iReport v4.7.0, JasperReports Server v4.7 Report developed in iReport uses Currency Pattern "¤ #,##0.00". It properly displays the "$" sign when run in preview mode from iReport. It properly displays the "$" sign when run from the Repository Navigator in iReport in the Report Viewer. When logged into JasperReports via a browser, the currency placeholder "¤" from the Currency Pattern is displayed. Is this a bug?
