Java code :
InputStream fileInput = getApplicationContext().getResource("/WEB-INF/reports/myjrxml.jrxml").getInputStream();
JasperReport jasperReport = JasperCompileManager.compileReport(fileInput);
HashMap map = new HashMap();
map.put("Field", "test");
JasperPrint jasperPrint = JasperFillManager.fillReport(jasperReport, map);
byte[] output1 = JasperExportManager.exportReportToPdf(jasperPrint);
String filename = "d:/test.pdf";
FileOutputStream fo = new FileOutputStream(filename);
fo.write(output1);
fo.close();

You are confusing the report data with parameters. I don't see that you have any report data, which is why you are getting an empty report. Further, you are filling a parameter named "Field" instead of the actual report data. So you either need to create a parameter called "Field" in your report, and then refer to it in the detail band, OR you need to pass the report data into your report something like
JRBeanCollectionDataSource data = new JRBeanCollectionDataSource(dataSet);
jasperPrint = JasperFillManager.fillReport(jasperReport, parameterMap, data);
where dataSet is a collection, such as List<?>. Within the List, you would have an object where one of the properties is Field.

I had also blank page (pdf). Even for the simplest report.Until I sent empty datasource (new JREmptyDataSource())!
This solved my problem:
Map<String, Object> param = new HashMap<>();
param.put("SOME_PARAM","something");
JasperPrint jasperPrint = JasperFillManager.fillReport(jasperReport, param, new JREmptyDataSource());
Explanation here.
By default, when no datasource info is present in a report, JR generates no pages.

Jasper Report PDF does not open

I am trying to build a sample web application which loads a pdf report generated through jasper reports (.jasper file). However the report does not open as a pdf with the message "This PDF document might not be displayed correctly".
The code snippets are as below. There is no exception log coming in the server log. Any help would be great. Thanks.

JasperReports: Error creating table trying to use CrossTab without column group

I'm wondering if there is a way to make a table like this using the JapserReports CrossTab or in any other way where the row group is the field value7.
The DataSet used is a JRBeanCollectionDataSource(list of SubViews).
Where SubView is:
public class SubView{
//...
private String value1;
private String value2;
private String value3;
private String value4;
private String value5;
private String value6;
private String value7;
//...getters and setters...
}
Note that there is no need of a column group, but jasper doesn't compile successfully if I don't configure a column group (error message: Crosstab should have at least one column group).
This to me does not seem like a crosstab problem. Crosstab's are used when the columns are dynamic, hence your error message
Crosstab should have at least one column group.
since there is "no need of a column group" the result is achived using the normal detail band and grouping on value7.
So after you put the labels in the columnHeader and the values 1-6 in the detail band you add a grouping on value7 with a groupHeader band
Example (I have only included until value 3 in detail band to sorten the answer

If you like to use crosstab anyway, you need to setup your dataset differently (since also columns become dynamic) check out this for examples: crosstab example

generating jasper reports using ireport designer tool

I generated PDF report using ireport designer tool. Upto here it is fine.
My question is :
If there is no data in the database then it is showing blank pdf page. At this time how can i show "No data found for this request" in pdf?
There is a property of the template WhenNoDataType.
Just set it to WhenNoDataType: AllSectionsNoDetail.
This will have the template(static fields) but no dynamic data from database.
If you just want to print some message than you will have to change the design up a bit. You would need to place a condition at the beginning of your report to check if data is coming from database, and act accordingly.
If you want to show none of the content of your report when there is no data (no title, headers, footers, etc.) then you should add a noData band to your report and put the message there. Then change the whenNoDataType report parameter to NoDataSection.
From the JasperReports Ultimate Guide:
If the <noData> section is defined in the report template, and if the data source is empty, then the <noData> section will be the only one taken into account at fill time
Example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<jasperReport xmlns="http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/jasperreports"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/jasperreports http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/xsd/jasperreport.xsd"

Create sub report using JasperReports API

I am able to create a Master report using JasperReports API. However stuck in designing a sub report using JasperReports API and add it into Master report design.
Master Report JRXML

</dataSourceExpression>
<subreportExpression><![CDATA["subreport.jasper"]]></subreportExpression>

</band>
Sub Report JRXML

These Stand alone XML's getting compiled and will generate report.
However i want to create these using Jasper Report API.
I have Just started. But stuck without any example available.
JRDesignSubreport jSubreport = new JRDesignSubreport(jasperDesign);
jSubreport.setUsingCache(false);
jSubreport.setRemoveLineWhenBlank(true);
JRDesignExpression subReportDataSourceExpr = new JRDesignExpression();
subReportDataSourceExpr.addResourceChunk("");
//How to set List Data Source?
JRDesignSubreportParameter subReportDataSource = new JRDesignSubreportParameter();
subReportDataSource.setExpression(subReportDataSourceExpr);
jSubreport.setDataSourceExpression(subReportDataSourceExpr);
//How to Add <subreportExpression><![CDATA["subreport.jasper"]]></subreportExpression>
This can be done as following
Put the sub report inside a band and then append the band to main report
band = new JRDesignBand();
band.setHeight(250);
band.setSplitType(SplitTypeEnum.STRETCH);
JRDesignSubreport jSubreport = new JRDesignSubreport(jasperDesign);
jSubreport.setUsingCache(false);
jSubreport.setRemoveLineWhenBlank(true);
jSubreport.setPrintRepeatedValues(false);
JRDesignExpression expression = new JRDesignExpression();
expression.setText("new net.sf.jasperreports.engine.data.JRBeanCollectionDataSource($F{time})");
jSubreport.setDataSourceExpression(expression);
expression = new JRDesignExpression();
expression.setText("\"/path/to/sub.jasper\"");
jSubreport.setExpression(expression);
band.addElement(jSubreport);

PDF generated from JAVA is damaged using Jasper Reports

I am using iReport Designer 4.7 to create .jrxml. Its a very simle .jrxml which displays parameters passsed
from JAVA. The test pdf gets generated from iReport Designer and I can view it using Adobe Reader.
Now, Here is the java code
I am calling createReport(String reportName, Map params) from Servlet.
The parameters are set from Servlet. There will be always parameters passed.
public void generateReport(String fileName, String outFileName, Map paramerterMap,
String reportFormat) throws JRException{
String reportSource = "C:\\jrxml\\" + fileName;
String outFile = null;
downloadPath = "C:\\pdfs\\";
outFile = downloadPath + outFileName;
JRExporter exporter = new JRPdfExporter();
JasperPrint jasperPrint = JasperFillManager.fillReport(reportSource, paramerterMap);
exporter.setParameter(JRXlsExporterParameter.CHARACTER_ENCODING,"UTF-8");
exporter.setParameter(JRExporterParameter.OUTPUT_FILE_NAME, outFile);
exporter.setParameter(JRExporterParameter.JASPER_PRINT, jasperPrint);
exporter.exportReport();
}
public Boolean createReport(String reportName, Map params) {
try {
String jrFile = reportName + ".jasper";
String outFileName = String.valueOf(7884);
outFileName += "_" + reportName + ".pdf";
generateReport(jrFile, outFileName, params, ".pdf");
return true;
} catch (JRException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
log.error("ReportManager--generateReport--JRException: " + e);
return false;
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
log.error("ReportManager--generateReport--Exception: " + e);
return false;
}
}
I am using same set of .jar which iReport Designer used.
(In fact I have copied .jar files from iReport installation directory)
Problem: The pdf generated using JAVA code is broken.
When I try to open PDF at created location, The Adobe reader says :
Adobe Reader could not open 'test.pdf' because it is either not a
supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example,
it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).
EDIT: I do not get any exception and the generated file size is around 5 KB.
EDIT2: Adding JRXML

Hardik,
I see 2-3 things over here
1) Your outfile name in generateReport always comes as "c:\pdfs"+ NULL.
( I wonder why test.pdf is still created )
2) What does gujarati object contains parameters for reports??
EDIT
3) Just asking why keep two seperate function for report generation?
In my opinion you could achieve the objective with single function createReport.!
EDIT : 2
I think this link might offer some help : http://jasperforge.org/uploads/publish/jasperreportswebsite/trunk/faq.html?group_id=252#FAQ29
