Hey geekded,

I have done as you indicated, however when I come to preview or run my report I am getting this error. I am getting the same error when I click 'get fields', see attached screen-shots.

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class net.sf.jasperreports.engine.query.JRJdbcQueryExecuter
    at com.jaspersoft.studio.data.jdbc.JDBCFieldsProvider.getFields(JDBCFieldsProvider.java:61)
    at com.jaspersoft.studio.data.jdbc.JDBCDataAdapterDescriptor.getFields(JDBCDataAdapterDescriptor.java:82)

    at org.eclipse.jface.operation.ModalContext$ModalContextThread.run(ModalContext.java:121)
 

This is a show stopper for now, looking for your response

I appreciate your help,

Makara

 that sounds like you are not including the sql driver jar into the project. Did you test the connection to the database on the query designer?

Hello,

It seems Jasper Studio did not include the jasperreport.jar file in build path.

Please download Jasperreport and include the jar file manually in your project's lib directory also try including mysql jdbc driver.
