Found it: I need to edit the xml: the value of isOnJS needs to be changed to "FALSE", see also http://docs.opsview.com/doku.php?id=reporting-latest:graphicalreport#repo_versus_local_filesystem. TThen further down, there is <subreportExpression><![CDATA[$P{subReportDir} + "DailyAvailabilitySummaryChartByKeyword" + $P{subReportExtension}]]></subreportExpression>[/code]where I needed to prefix a slash ("/") to "/DailyAvailabilitySummaryChartByKeyword"[/code]sso that it could find the file on the filesystem. IIf someone knows of a more practical way to design reports and then deploy them, I would be happy to hear about them.
