Changing the Server Context Path

In some circumstances you may want to change the server context path for accessing Logi JReport Server console and running Logi JReport reports. This topic introduces how to do this in a standalone or an integrated environment.

After the context path is changed, when working on Logi JReport Server via URLs, the new context path should be used in the URLs.

Below is a list of the sections covered in this topic:

• Changing Standalone Server Context Path
• Changing Integrated Server Context Path

Changing Standalone Server Context Path

Logi JReport has the following URL configuration for accessing the Logi JReport Server console and running Logi JReport reports in a standalone environment:

http://<hostname>:8888/jrserver
http://<hostname>:8888/jinfonet/index.jsp
http://<hostname>:8888/dhtmljsp/...
http://<hostname>:8888/jinfonet/tryView.jsp?&jrs.report=%2fSampleReports%2fSales Detail Report.wls&jrs.catalog=%2fSampleReports%2fSampleReports.cat&jrs.result_type=8
http://<hostname>:8888/webos/app/pagestudio/run.jsp?jrs.report=%2fSampleReports%2fEmployee Information List.cls&jrs.catalog=%2fSampleReports%2fSampleReports.cat

You may want to change the server context path to /jrp and the URLs will be:

http://<hostname>:8888/jrp/jrserver
http://<hostname>:8888/jrp/jinfonet/index.jsp
http://<hostname>:8888/jrp/dhtmljsp/...
http://<hostname>:8888/jrp/jinfonet/tryView.jsp?&jrs.report=%2fSampleReports%2fSales Detail Report.wls&jrs.catalog=%2fSampleReports%2fSampleReports.cat&jrs.result_type=8
http://<hostname>:8888/jrp/webos/app/pagestudio/run.jsp?jrs.report=%2fSampleReports%2fEmployee Information List.cls&jrs.catalog=%2fSampleReports%2fSampleReports.cat

To do this:

1. Copy all contents in <install_root>\public_html to <install_root>\public_html\jrp.
2. Modify the following property values in server.properties in <install>\bin directory by adding "/jrp":

   web.design_servlet_path=/jrp/webreporting
   web.dhtml_jsp_path=/jrp/dhtmljsp
   web.dhtml_servlet_path=/jrp/dhtml
   web.help_servlet_path=/jrp/help
   web.jreport_servlet_path=/jrp/jrserver
   web.skin.dir=/jrp/skin

3. Modify the value of jsp_path in redirect.properties in <install>\bin directory by adding "/jrp":

   jsp_path=/jrp/jinfonet/

4. Modify mapping.properties in <install>\bin directory by adding "/jrp":

   # Map servlets to paths
   # Properties beginning with a . are extension properties, all other
   # properties are path properties
   #
   # Format:
   # path or extension = servlet name
   
   /jrp/jrserver=jrserver
   /servlet/sendfile=sendfile
   /jrp/dhtml=dhtml
   /jrp/help=help
   .jsp=jspservlet

5. Start the server and access the server by the URLs:

   http://<hostname>:8888/jrp/jrserver
http://<hostname>:8888/jrp/jinfonet/index.jsp

   Run a report in Page Report Studio by the URL:

   http://<hostname>8888/jrp/webos/app/pagestudio/run.jsp?jrs.catalog=%2fSampleReports%2fSampleReports.cat&jrs.report=%2fSampleReports%2fEmployee Information List.cls

Changing Integrated Server Context Path

Suppose that all server resources are deployed to the context root folder jreport\ after deploying Logi JReport Server to an application server. You can use the following URLs for accessing the Logi JReport Server service console and running Logi JReport reports in the integrated environment:

http://<hostname>:port/jreport/jinfonet/index.jsp
http://<hostname>:port/jreport/dhtmljsp/...
http://<hostname>:8888/jreport/jinfonet/tryView.jsp?&jrs.report=%2fSampleReports%2fSales Detail Report.wls&jrs.catalog=%2fSampleReports%2fSampleReports.cat&jrs.result_type=8
http://<hostname>:8888/jreport/webos/app/pagestudio/run.jsp?jrs.report=%2fSampleReports%2fEmployee Information List.cls&jrs.catalog=%2fSampleReports%2fSampleReports.cat

You may want to change the server context path to /jreport/myjsp and the URLs will be:

http://<hostname>:port/jreport/myjsp/jinfonet/index.jsp
http://<hostname>:port/jreport/myjsp/dhtmljsp/...
http://<hostname>:8888/jreport/myjsp/jinfonet/tryView.jsp?&jrs.report=%2fSampleReports%2fSales Detail Report.wls&jrs.catalog=%2fSampleReports%2fSampleReports.cat&jrs.result_type=8
http://<hostname>:8888/jreport/myjsp/webos/app/pagestudio/run.jsp?jrs.report=%2fSampleReports%2fEmployee Information List.cls&jrs.catalog=%2fSampleReports%2fSampleReports.cat

To do this:

1. Move index.htm and the following folders from jreport\ to jreport\myjsp\: admin, dhtmljsp, images, javascript, jinfonet, skin and style.
2. Create a jrserver.properties file in the \WEB-INF directory, add the skin and dhtmljsp properties and provide the correct paths (the context root is excluded):

   web.skin.dir=/myjsp/skin
   web.dhtml_jsp_path=/myjsp/dhtmljsp

3. Access the server by the URL: http://<hostname>:port/jreport/myjsp/jinfonet/index.jsp

   Run a report in Page Report Studio by the URL:

   http://<hostname>:port/jreport/myjsp/webos/app/pagestudio/run.jsp?jrs.catalog=%2fSampleReports%2fSampleReports.cat&jrs.report=%2fSampleReports%2fEmployee Information List.cls
