iReport 5.0.1 / Ubuntu 12.04 : windows with i message null

[tanguy.yves]

Hello,

I am using ireport 5.0.1 with ubuntu 12.04 LTS.

After opening a jrxml file I  select Preview (with precompilation button result is the same) a windows is opened containing  "i message and null" is opened and the pc is blocked (only way is to turn off/on power).

Did you already experience such issue ?

thanks in advance for your answer.

Best regards, Yves

No answer, but exactly the same problem...

I use iReport 4.0.1 on ubuntu.

Not an answer, but I'm having this same problem with iReport 3.7.6. I'm running Linux Ubuntu 10.4 (Lucid), and suspect that a fairly recent Java update buggered something. Ideas?

I have the same problem and I use Ubuntu 12.04 with Mate Desktop in Graphic Interface.

 

Thanks a lot.

Same problem with Ubuntu 12.04, iReport 5.1.0 (and iReport 4.7.0) using OpenJDK version 1.6.0_27.

Using OpenJDK 7 (version 1.7.0_25) this problem disappears...and iReport is faster.

i was having the same problem using ubuntu 12.04 and ireport 3.7.6, ireport 4.6.0 and 5.0.1. I finally solve the problem by forcing java version to be OpenJDK 7.

I Changed the default Java, and javac version used on Ubuntu by doing:

java : sudo /usr/sbin/update-alternatives --config java

java compiler : sudo /usr/sbin/update-alternatives --config javac

java web start : sudo /usr/sbin/update-alternatives --config javaws

It didnt work out for me though. Need some more help here. I am using ubuntu 12.04 LTS (32-bit), ireport 5.5.0, and java version "1.7.0_25" (OpenJDK 7).

Hello,

I opened the post on August 6,2013 and the only solution I found is the one exactly described in the former answer

ie force the use of OpenJDK 7.

Best regards, Yves.

Terrific idea - works here on multiple platforms.

installed jre-7  onto Debian v7.2 upgraded to Linux v3.13.3  with iReport v5.5.0 (linux kit - which has splash display showing v5.5.1)

Can now run iReport programs from 4 years ago, formally on iRport v3.0.0  developed on Windows XP.

Overcame the problem of running on Debian client (above) when the jrxml file involves PARAMETERS which just hung a "filling report".

 

ALso overcame the message box "NULL" descibed in this post, and premitted a PREVIEW and a COMPILE successfully,

We running all this against databases running on Ubuntu 10.4 LTS and Ubuntu 12.4 LTS servers on a variety of servers around the county and in the cloud.

 

Terrific clues chaps - much appreciated.,
