Jasper Plugin cannot find file
I'm using the tutorial here:
http://struts.apache.org/2.0.14/docs/jasperreports-tutorial.html
I have put a file here:
/jasper/report.jrxml
I can look in my war file and verify it.
I'm trying to compile and render with it. Here is my action code:
<action name="saveReport" class="com.secmgmt.struts2.actions.SaveReport">
<result name="success" type="jasper">
<param name="location">/jasper/scrounger_report.jasper</param>
<param name="dataSource">personList</param>
<param name="format">PDF</param>
</result>
</action>
I've also tried:
<param name="location">my-webapp/jasper/scrounger_report.jasper</param>
Which is what the tutorial has.
In my action, I have:
try
{
JasperCompileManager.compileReportToFile(
"my-webapp/jasper/scrounger_report.jrxml",
"my-webapp/jasper/scrounger_report.jasper");
}
catch (Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
return ERROR;
}
But I always get a file not found error, I've tried just the
/jasper/...jrxml too, without the appname (which I think is the correct way)
but no luck.
What path should I be using if the file is in /jasper/scrounger_report.jrxml
in my war file?
Thanks

Nice reference Wes! BTW, I noticed you are not using the new cover letter
for the TPS reports, so I'm going to have to go ahead and ask you to read
that memo one more time.
Peace,

OK, I took a smart pill, and put the following in my action:
JasperCompileManager.compileReportToFile(
this.getServletContext().getRealPath("/jasper/scrounger_report.jrxml"),
this.getServletContext().getRealPath("/jasper/scrounger_report.jasper"));
I'm logging that location with log4j, and will have to figure out how to put
it in the struts.xml file for the action.
Thanks for all the help.

I would suggest that first give the complete absolute path and check if
the program is working fine, just to ensure, there is a problem with
path only.
Once established problem is with path only, I may help you further.

Doh, I must have replied to a topic, my bad.

Yes, it's the context directory, I've also just tried it with
/jasper/scrounger_report.jasper.

The webapp root, that is, if I do a listing of my war file, it's in the root
of it, at /jasper/scrounger_report.jasper
>>If compileReportToFile is expecting a physical file you may have issues

I've looked in my webapps directory, the war gets expanded and the file
exists on the filesystem. Are you saying I may still have issues?
>>Are you actually compiling the report each time the action is hit?
No, I'm just testing to make sure I can figure this out.

What is "my-webapp"? A directory? Your web app's context? If the latter,
that certainly won't work, you'd need to get the path relative to your
webapp's deployment.
If compileReportToFile is expecting a physical file you may have issues
if you're deploying a war file, since files contained in it may not be
accessible in this manner.
Are you actually compiling the report each time the action is hit?

What is "my-webapp"? A directory? Your web app's context? If the latter,
that certainly won't work, you'd need to get the path relative to your
webapp's deployment.
If compileReportToFile is expecting a physical file you may have issues
if you're deploying a war file, since files contained in it may not be
accessible in this manner.
Are you actually compiling the report each time the action is hit?
