guys, need help...

Im currently working on a project with jasper report. it seems that the pdf file (report) runs on a browser succesfully without a subreport in Glassfish server but when there is a subreport the error occurs. ive been working with this problem since last week and im already desperate. The project has no problem deploying through NetBeans but when I run the war file on our web server there is a "java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: name" error.

here's the root causes in glassfish log folder:

I got the exact same problem last week, i have an application that use to run on Oracle Containers for Java (OC4J) but managment decided that we should use Glassfish, the application was running without problems, but i got this exception on one of the reports that contained a subreport, the reason is the subreport PATH, i was appending "/" to the end of the path, like this

parametrosReporte.put("SUBREPORT_DIR",this.getServletContext().getRealPath(this.getServletContext().getInitParameter("reportPath"))+"/");

this worked in OC4J, but not in glassfish, i had to change it to

parametrosReporte.put("SUBREPORT_DIR",this.getServletContext().getRealPath(this.getServletContext().getInitParameter("reportPath"))+System.getProperty("file.separator"));

I hope this works for you, if you havent found another solution

Best Regards

Thank you..

I got the same problem but this workaround doesn't work for me
Here are my code and the exception

String reportResource = CrystalIntegrationReport.getDefDir()+ reportName +  REPORT_EXTENSION + System.getProperty("file.separator") ;
            log.debug("Got file for report " + reportResource);
            ReportClientDocument reportClientDoc = new ReportClientDocument();
            reportClientDoc.open(reportResource, 0);

Hi tamseo,
I was facing exactly same problem from last few days. The issue was occurring when I was trying to load some files and ONLY in a specific server. Not in my local JBoss or Weblogic server.

So I tried to check the code of "at sun.misc.URLClassPath$Loader.findResource()"
It has implementation as below,

URL findResource(String paramString, boolean paramBoolean) {
      URL localURL;
      try {
        localURL = new URL(this.base, ParseUtil.encodePath(paramString, false));
      } catch (MalformedURLException localMalformedURLException) {
        throw new IllegalArgumentException("name");
      }
      ...

So it is actually throwing MalformedURLException which is converted to IllegalArgumentException.

The reason what I found for MalformedURLException is, encodePath() expects protocol with the file path. (Don't know how it was working with local JBoss & JDK)
When I modified the path like "file:/C:/KP/TestServer/server/default/conf/myfile.txt", it worked fine.

So the problem now is making the implementation server independent.. :(

Regards
KP

Thank you very much kpshastry,
I tried your workaround, it works fine. I think we only need to add the protocol prefix to the path for Windows environment, i didn't have this error with Tomcat on Linux.
You really saved my time. Thanks
