Deploying to jboss-as-7.1.1.Final or JBoss EAP 7.0

The example directory paths listed below are based on Unix. The instructions are applicable to both Unix and Windows installations; however, the format of the paths for Windows would use the Windows format, that is, C:\JReport\Server instead of /opt/JReport/Server.

The following takes JBoss EAP 7.0 as an example.

It is assumed that:

• JBoss EAP 7.0 is installed in the /opt/JBoss EAP 7.0 directory.
• The JReport Server WAR file jreport.war is located in the /opt/JReport/Server/bin/distribute directory. To create the WAR file refer to the instructions in Building a WAR/EAR File to Include a Self-contained JReport Server.

  Note: Before creating the WAR, you need to change JRPatternLayout to PatternLayout all over the LogConfig.properties file in /opt/JReport/Server/bin.

To deploy JReport Server to JBoss EAP 7.0:

1. To avoid the issue that JBoss EAP 7 cannot locate jrenv.jar, when building a WAR/EAR to deploy to JBoss EAP 7, add -Djbossas7=true in makewar.bat/sh like this:

   

2. After file jreport.war is generated, extract it with your zip tool.
3. Create a file named jboss-deployment-structure.xml in the jreport.war/META-INF directory. The file should contain the following contents:

   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

   <jboss-deployment-structure>

   <deployment>

   <exclusions>

   <module name="org.apache.log4j" />

   </exclusions>

    

   <dependencies>

   <system>

   <paths>

   <path name="com/sun/org/apache/xml/internal/security/utils"/>

   </paths>

   </system>

   </dependencies>

   </deployment>

   </jboss-deployment-structure>

4. Compress the extracted jreport.war back to a single file.
5. Start JBoss by running the standalone.sh script if it is not started.
6. Add a management user to JBoss EAP 7 by running the add-user.sh script. Then you need to access the JBoss Management Console to deploy jreport.war and enable it.

   

7. Access JReport Server using the following URLs:

   http://localhost:8080/jreport/jrserver
http://localhost:8080/jreport/admin/index.jsp
http://localhost:8080/jreport/jinfonet/index.jsp

Troubleshooting

If you run into problems when using JReport Server in JBoss, send the log files of JReport Server to support@jinfonet.com. The following procedure illustrates how to generate the log files:

1. Modify the file standalone.conf in /opt/JBoss EAP 7.0/bin.

   In the file standalone.conf, add -Dlogall=true like this:

   

2. After editing standalone.conf, start JBoss using the modified file.
3. After reproducing the problem, send support@jinfonet.com the log files in reporthome/logs.

   The JBoss log files may also help to identify the problem. The most useful one is /opt/jboss-eap-7.0/standalone/log/server.log.
