JasperReporting Server
FINALLY :) We arrived to something to install :) So we are going to perform WAR installation on Apache Tomcat and store our data on PostgreSQL, both of which we already installed above:
Download JasperServer
Download the package from: https://community.jaspersoft.com/project/jasperreports-server/releases and transfer to the target machine Alternatively you can do the following
[root@jasperserver tmp]# wget ttps://sourceforge.net/projects/jasperserver/files/JasperServer/JasperReports%20Server%20Community%20Edition%207.1.0/TIB_js-jrs-cp_7.1.0_bin.zip/download# Saving to: “download” 100%[==================================================================================================================================>] 332,329,027 9.42M/s in 60s 2018-06-20 17:21:41 (5.25 MB/s) - “download” saved [332329027/332329027] [root@jasperserver tmp]# unzip download Archive: TIB_js-jrs-cp_7.1.0_bin.zip creating: jasperreports-server-cp-7.1.0-bin/ creating: jasperreports-server-cp-7.1.0-bin/apache-ant/ creating: jasperreports-server-cp-7.1.0-bin/apache-ant/bin/ creating: jasperreports-server-cp-7.1.0-bin/apache-ant/etc/ creating: jasperreports-server-cp-7.1.0-bin/apache-ant/etc/checkstyle/ creating: jasperreports-server-cp-7.1.0-bin/apache-ant/lib/ creating: jasperreports-server-cp-7.1.0-bin/buildomatic/ creating: jasperreports-server-cp-7.1.0-bin/buildomatic/bin/ creating: jasperreports-server-cp-7.1.0-bin/buildomatic/conf_source/ creating: jasperreports-server-cp-7.1.0-bin/buildomatic/conf_source/db/ creating: jasperreports-server-cp-7.1.0-bin/buildomat
After the file has been unzipped, we have to configure the postgreSQL.
PostgreSQL configuration
Edit the pg_hba.conf as follows:
# TYPE DATABASE USER CIDR-ADDRESS METHOD # "local" is for Unix domain socket connections only local all all ident local postgres postgres md5 # IPv4 local connections: host all postgres jasper_server_IP/32 md5 <- THIS IP is important :) host all all 127.0.0.1/32 ident # IPv6 local connections: host all all ::1/128 ident
Restart the postgresql OR re-load the configuration, whichever you prefer :)
Configure JasperServer
After the postgreSQL allows connection, copy the “postgresql_master.properties” into the “buildomatic” directory as “default_master.properties and be sure that the following values are set:
appServerType=tomcat appServerDir=/opt/apache-tomcat-8.5.31/ <- Location of the Apache tomcat from step 1) dbHost=JasperServer Hostname dbUsername=postgres <- PostgreSQL user user :) dbPassword=postgres <- PostgreSQL user password
At this stage your database should be running and your app server should be DOWN :)
Install JasperServer via Script
The installation is done via the a sh script as follows:
[root@localhost buildomatic]# ./js-install-ce.sh

Test
After all this, you will be rewarded with the option to connect to the Jasper Web Interface :) … AFTER you start your Apache Tomcat of course :)
Feel free to use the following credentials:
jasperadmin / jasperadmin
