When we upgrade JasperReportsServer from version 7.1 to 7.2 the application started with the following errors: 2019-06-05 07:28:16,583 INFO [stdout] (ServerService Thread Pool -- 90) 2019-06-05 07:28:16,578 ERROR ContextLoader,ServerService Thread Pool -- 90:350 - Context initialization failed 2019-06-05 07:28:16,583 INFO [stdout] (ServerService Thread Pool -- 90) org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'proxyBasicProcessingFilter' defined in ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/applicationContext-externalAuth-LDAP. xml]: Error setting property values; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.NotWritablePropertyException: Invalid property 'authenticationManager' of bean class [com.jaspersoft.jasperserver.api.security.externalAuth.ExternalAuthBasicProcessingFilter]: Bean property 'authenticationManager' is not writable or has an invalid setter method. Does the parameter type of the setter match the return type of the getter? The WEB-INF/applicationContext-externalAuth-LDAP.xml file seems to be different in 7.1 and 7.2.
