I have an simmilar problem.
I would like to send leave reports to every employer autmaticaly.
At the moment I have a report where on every page a employers leave records are listed.
Ideal would be to send to every employer just his own page.
Is that possible?
I have to create Reports with data from a remote MySQL database. This one is configured with Latin1 Character encoding: mysql> SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'c%'; +--------------------------+----------------------------+ | Variable_name | Value | +--------------------------+----------------------------+ | character_set_client | latin1 | | character_set_connection | latin1 | | character_set_database | latin1 | | character_set_results | latin1 | | character_set_server | latin1 | | character_set_system | utf8 | | character_sets_dir | /usr/share/mysql/charsets/ | | collation_connection | latin1_swedish_ci | | collation_database | latin1_swedish_ci | | collation_server | latin1_swedish_ci | | concurrent_insert | ON | | connect_timeout | 5 | +--------------------------+----------------------------+ When I run a SELECT from the mysql command prompt it gives me the correct special caracters. E.g. äöü But If I try to create a Report with this Datasource instead strange characters apear: "ä" etc. I already tried to change the JDBC configuration in the datasource: 'characterEncoding=latin1&characterSetResults=ISO8859_1' but no luck. The problem is the same with iReport 5.0 and Jasperserver 5.0 Anyone an idea how I can make Jasperserver interpret the data correctly from a latin1 datasource?
