Jasper 6.3 Documentation seems to be missing

  • 1.  Jasper 6.3 Documentation seems to be missing

    Posted Dec 20, 2016 12:39 PM

    Has anyone successfully located the documentation for Jasper 6.3? I mean the full documentation, not the simple overview in the Report Manager installation section. 6.3 includes integrated installation for TomCat and PostgreSQL now which is great (I'll blow away what I had previously since it was basically useless anyway in terms of reports and I never could get BOXI4.1 to work properly with Spectrum 10.1).

     

    I've attempted the install, but it just seems to hang on two separate tries now. Anyone do a successful install yet? Thanks in advance

    Go to https://docops.ca.com in the Select a Product field type in Jasper and you'll see three docs for CA Business Intelligance Jasper Reports Server 6.1.0, 6.2.0 and 6.3.0.

    I successfully installed JasperReports 6.3 by following this guide:

    Installing CABI 6.3 Using GUI Installer on Windows or Linux 

     

    Thanks,

    I'm getting a "Page not found" when I follow this link. Likewise, JasperReports is only showing 6.1.0 and 6.2.0.

     

    Question:  Does anyone know if I have to be on Spectrum 10.2 for Jaspersoft 6.3 to install / integrate properly? We won't be upgrading for another month and I'd like to check out what changes are in store with the new 6.3 version...

     

    Thanks!

    Thomas I will forward this to our docops team to figure out why you are not seeing the 6.3 docs.

    Hi Thomas,

     

    Below is the documentation link to Jasper pages on spectrum doc.

    I opened a ticket for this yesterday and they seem to have fixed the issue. I can now get to the link provided by Ravi

    Thanks Ravi!

     

    I did find, however, that the Prerequisite section under Silent Installation went to "Page not found." I'm trying to determine if I can upgrade my existing 6.1 install while still running Spectrum 10.1.1 or if I have to wait for 10.2.

    Sure Thomas.

     

    Will get the Prerequisite problem in the doc pages fixed.

     

    Jasper 6.3 will work with Spectrum 10.2. You need to upgrade spectrum as well to 10.2 if you want to upgrade Jasper to 6.3.

    Thanks Ravi, I thought that might be the case. Will hold off until I get 10.2 installed.
