Error parsing JasperReport

Hi, I have a Report Book created with JasperSoft Studio v7.  When importing this report into the latest Docker version of ReportServer, I get the exception:-

Could not execute report: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException; lineNumber: 2; columnNumber: 235; cvc-complex-type.3.2.2: Attribute 'sectionType' is not allowed to appear in element 'jasperReport'.

Is there something I need to update on the ReportServer image?

Cheers,
Garrick

Re: Error parsing JasperReport

As an update to this, I have found a previous post indicating that Jasper Library v7 is not compatible, so have saved the document using v6.20.6 JRXML version.  When saved using this version, if I try to open the ReportBook, I still get an exception:-

error":"JRValidationException: Report design not valid : \n\t 1. Band reports cannot contain parts\n\t 2. Band reports cannot contain parts\n\t 3. Band reports cannot contain parts","report_id":6656,"report_name":"TicketBook","base_report_id":6656,"base_report_name":"TicketBook","executing_user_id":6,"report_output_format":"PDF","report_key":"7d52cece8ddd282901895e8f8270cf754017f93f

I have just uploaded one of the sub-reports as a standalone report, and it does excute without exception, but produces a blank page?

Thanks,
Garrick

Re: Error parsing JasperReport

Hello Garrick

Could you please send us a little more information?

We still need to know which version of ReportServer you are using, as well as the database (including the version) and Java version.

Please also send us the full error message, and it would be great if you could post the link you mentioned here as well.

Best regards
Jasmin
