Appendix C - Sample Job Setup​

First, there is some information that must be collected in order to know what to put on the command line for OpCon.

  1. Log into the Jasper application as superuser. The URL should be: http://<I.P.>:8080/jasperserver-pro/login.html

This may be different at your site. For this example, a login to the community version (JasperServer instead of JasperServer-Pro) will be shown.

The superuser for the communicty version is jasperadmin.

  1. Right-click on “View” and a drop-down menu will appear. Click on Repository.

  1. Open the items on the navigation menu on the left until you see the report that you wish to run.

Right-click on each level in the navigation menu (on the left) and select Properties. For example, if you right-click on Reports and select Properties, you see:

Note the Resource ID. Click on Cancel to close the dialog.

If you right-click on Samples and select Properties, you will see:

Note the Resource ID. Click on Cancel to close the dialog.

Construct the path by appending these Resource IDs together. This will be used with the –ReportDirectory command line option or in the configuration file. In this case, the path is /Reports/Samples/.
