Hi,
I've installed JasperReports Server from the WAR file distribution jasperreports-server-cp-5.0.0-bin.zip on Ubuntu running Tomcat7 and MySQL 5.5.29.
I had to override the instructions of installation (annex A.8.5) about the settings in default-master.properties:
# Tomcat app server root dir
# appServerDir = C:\\Program Files\\Apache Software Foundation\\Tomcat 7.0
appServerDir = /var/lib/tomcat7
# if linux package managed tomcat instance, set two properties below
CATALINA_HOME = /usr/share/tomcat7
CATALINA_BASE = /var/lib/tomcat7
It seems to be ok. The installation is going well, with OK. The databases are created...
I found a directory jasperserver in /var/lib/tomcat7/webapps/jasperserver
But I can't start Jasperserver: there is not ctrlscript.sh (nowhere !).
I went to Tomcat page (localhost:8080) and to the Manager (localhost:8080/manager).
The manager finds jasperserver but when I hit the button "Start" it says (in French) : L'application pour le chemin de contexte /jasperserver n'a pas pu être démarrée (i.e. : Unable to start the application for context path /jasperserver, or something like that).
If I go to localhost:8080/jasperserver, I receive an error message HTTP Status 404 (the requested resource is not available).
What can I do ?
Thanks.
Rémi
does the tomcat log file indicate some errors, like db not available? have there ben any errors during the installation?

I have the same problem using tomcat 6.0.35 on osx (macports tomcat) with PostgreSQL. My other webapps are working. I've "heard" (using google) that tomcat-dbcp.jar is out of date, that tomcat is supposed to use commons-dbcp.jar instead. If I try to copy tomcat-dbcp.jar into the lib directory it breaks my other webapps.

- No errors during the installation.

(It's only the first lines...)
I've noticed this line:
INFO: Set web app root system property: 'jasperserver.root' = [/var/lib/tomcat7/webapps/jasperserver/]
How do I set the "web app root system property" ?
And it seems to be a problem with ClassPath...
Any idea how to find my way?
Thanks,
Rémi

There seems to be something wrong with the tomcat setup.
The class not found is a tomcat class: org.apache.tomcat.dbcp.dbcp.BasicDataSourceFactory
It is used for the tomcat's connection pooling. And the jasperserver webapp uses the connection that tomcat provides.
Two things to check would be the following:
(take a look inside this file and see if the database credentials and url look good)
(you can delete the file above and tomcat will put a fresh in in place)
The file above is copied (by tomcat) from this location (this is a kind of dumb tomcat thing)
Also, check:
(make sure that you see a JDBC driver in there from postrgresql)
Here is a list of jars from my apache-tomcat-6.0.35/lib
annotations-api.jar
catalina-ant.jar
catalina-ha.jar
catalina.jar
catalina-tribes.jar
ecj-3.7.jar
el-api.jar
jasper-el.jar
jasper.jar
jsp-api.jar
postgresql-9.0-801.jdbc4.jar
servlet-api.jar
tomcat-coyote.jar
tomcat-dbcp.jar
tomcat-i18n-es.jar
tomcat-i18n-fr.jar
tomcat-i18n-ja.jar
Notice >> tomcat-dbcp.jar
Needs to be in place.

Here is a tomcat bug about missing dbcp jar:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tomcat6/+bug/283852
Maybe similar issue?
