Hi guys, im currently testing Jaspersoft. However, after couple of days of created the instance and stack in AWS. When arriving at the login page, only blue screen is shown, no login form anywhere.
Thus i had to delete the stack and create a new one. In the process lost all the previous setup. Why did this happen? how can i prevent the "blue screen only" been shown again?

thanks.

Ok i was abble to reproduce your error
Cause: absent "anonymousUser"

it`s known JRS bug.

howto resolve it:
Login to AWS JRS Instance using ssh

Stop tomcat
"sudo service tomcat7 stop"

change working folder to buildomatic
"cd /usr/share/jrs_dist/jasperreports-server.................../buildomatic"

Execute import of sample resources
"sudo ./js-import.sh --input-zip ./install_resources/export/js-catalog-postgresql-pro.zip"
this command will import all resources which was deleted after initial state,
if resource already exist - it will skip it (no worries to overwrite something)

Start Tomcat
"sudo service tomcat7 start"

wait 1-2 minutes, try to open JRS UI

Hope this help. Please report your Results.

Deleted users will be restored, enabled and have default passwords

If this ever happen again, please check your browser console, you might find a client side error that prevents a page from being fully loaded.

It's also a good practice to check server logs.

BBTW, you can find pre-build ready-to-use JasperReport servers on AWS marketplace, with RDS and RedShift integration...

Hi Udid,

Thanks for your help. However, it has happened again. This time, i realised the blue screen freeze has happened, after i deleted the default users from Jaspersoft. The console is showing no error. However, the HTML has not loaded any content in <body> tag.

It looks like the json response from AWS has incomplete html code.

Please let me know how to solve this. I dont want to restart the CloudFormation again.

thanks.

Nalla,

A few follow up questions on this issue:

  1. How did you delete the users?
  2. Can you please attach the error / exception you're seeing to this post?

Thanks,

Assaf

Hi Assaf,

I have included the exception in the above comment.

I deleted the user through the Jaspersoft UI > logged in then manage users. Delete selected users.

possible that you delete special account "superuser" - don`t do that.

as you mention you delete previous stack - so no way to get your stuff back,
if you would leave it - you could try to export repository using js-export shell script.

Is this the only way to bring Jaspersoft back? by deleting the stack and recreating?

Mine is the superuser account (username: superuser), and it wasn't deleted. One of the default user had the superuser role which assigned to it, which was deleted. But there was no warning stating not to delete the any account with superuser role??!!

This is not very good guys. I have wasted money on the ondemand aws usage.
