Webclient printing

Questions
1

Hi

I am having a problem with printing reports in a webclient. Smartclient works fine.
It does not give any message but does not create a PDF either.

In the server log it give this error message.
org.mozilla.javascript.WrappedException: Wrapped java.lang.Exception: net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JRException: Errors were encountered when compiling report expressions class file: org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException: startup failed:
calculator_ClientCard_1612861793518_610721: 18: unable to resolve class net.sf.jasperreports.compilers.GroovyEvaluator
@ line 18, column 1.
calculator_ClientCard_1612861793518_610721: 28: unable to resolve class JRFillParameter
@ line 28, column 5.
and continues for each field on the report.

Our server version is as follows

Server Information
Servoy version 2019.12.1 -releaseNumber 3543
Port used by RMI Registry: 1099
Repository version 51
Current time: Tue Feb 09 10:59:36 CAT 2021
Uptime: 7 days 22 hours 22 minutes 17 seconds
Server ID: 89510A25-A205-4C38-92A3-F70770C70999

JVM Information
java.vm.name=Java HotSpot™ 64-Bit Server VM
java.version=1.8.0_251
java.vm.info=mixed mode
java.vm.vendor=Oracle Corporation

and we use jasper reports plugin version v.6.4.1_2019.12.1 with groovy-all-2.4.5.jar file in the jasper_reports folder in the plugins folder on the server.

I know that you can change the report language to Java to not use groovy but that is not really an option for us.

Any help will be appreciated

Any Ideas would be welcome.

I did a bit of research and found this: https://community.jaspersoft.com/questi … ing-report and then this https://community.jaspersoft.com/jasper … ssues/9476
They have a similar issue when using an old groovy (2.4.5), like you do, but it seems it works fine with a newer one, like 2.4.15? Maybe you can give it a try.

Hi Gabi

Thank you for taking the time to research and respond to my post.

On reading the jasper plugin page it said to download the ChartCN version of the plugin instead of the basic version of the plugin.
I have done so and it updated the groovy file to 2.4.16.

Unfortunately I still get the exact same error.

It is almost as if the webclient does not know where to find the Jar file.

Does the webclient have a different Classpath to smartclient?

This looks exactly like in https://support.servoy.com/browse/SVY-4634 ( https://support.servoy.com/browse/SVY-2738 ) and https://www.servoyforge.net/issues/696 , and seems an issue with the jasper lib itself, with no workaround, just switching to java in the scripting.
