A Jasperserver docker container.

Installation/ Setup

• Copy the distro/bin folder to /srv/jasperserver on your docker host

• Edit the default.properties to meet your needs.

• Setup your environment.txt file in /srv/jasperserver/environment.txt

  MYSQL_HOST=servername
  MYSQL_USERNAME=mysqluser
  MYSQL_PASSWORD=somethingsecretandrandom
  MYSQL_PORT=3306

• Execute the run command going to a bash shell:

  docker run --rm -it \
    --hostname jasperserver \
    --name jaspserserver \
    --env-file=/srv/jasperserver/environment.txt \
    --volume=/srv/jasperserver/webapp:/var/lib/tomcat7/webapps \
    --volume=/srv/jasperserver/jasperreports-server-cp-5.6.1-bin:/data \
    --link mysql:mysql \
    --publish=8080:8080 \
    xforty/jasperserver \
    bash -l

• Run buildomatic js-install-ce.sh minimal. Note the minimal install may seem hung. Be patient. This has something to do with the java crypto libraries reading /dev/urandom on Linux and it hanging due to inadquate entropy to generate suitable randomness.

• Exit out of your docker container and then start it proper

  docker run \
    -it \
    --hostname jasperserver \
    --name jaspserserver \
    --env-file=/srv/jasperserver/environment.txt \
    --volume=/srv/jasperserver/webapp:/var/lib/tomcat7/webapps \
    --volume=/srv/jasperserver/jasperreports-server-cp-5.6.1-bin:/data \
    --publish=8080:8080 \
    xforty/jasperserver
