Running Crosstab reports incurs "infinite loop" error

Issue:

Running certain crosstab reports can result in the following error:

ERROR AsyncJasperPrintAccessor,pool-6-thread-4:321 - Error during report execution 
net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JRRuntimeException: Crosstab has not printed anything on 3 consecutive pages, likely infinite loop. 

Solution:

This is a defect reported in JRL-1249 and will be fixed in  TIBCO JasperReports^® Server 7.1.

The workaround is to set the following property in the ../classes/jasperreports.properties file:

net.sf.jasperreports.legacy.element.stretch.enabled=true

followed by a restart of the TIBCO JasperReports® server.

Note: This issue affects versions 6.2.2 and higher.
