BIRT 2.2 on Websphere 6.0.2.0
Download one of the following:
The only version that we have managed to fix to work on WAS 6.0.2.0 is 2.2M2
Do the following to get it running on Linux
gunzip birt-report-designer-all-in-one-linux-gtk-2.2M2.tar.gz
tar xvf birt-report-designer-all-in-one-linux-gtk-2.2M2.tar
chmod +x eclipse/eclipse
./eclipse/eclipse
Create a BIRT Web Project
Click File, New, Project and select BIRT Web Project
Add Web Project to the EAR
Fill in the Project name:
Select the BIRT Reporting Web Project Configuration
and check the Add project to an EAR box
Click next till you get to the BIRT Configuration page and delete all the folder settings
Click Finish
Create the logs and report/images directories. These need to contain a file - the file can be empty as the readme.txt files I have shown here are - so that WAS will create the directories when the EAR is deployed
Export the EAR
Change the WAR's Class loader mode to Parent Last
and test the following URL
http://localhost:9080/BIRT/frameset?__report=test1.rptdesign&sample=my+parameter
and you should see the following!
