iReport 5.6.0 not working

Question

I installed iReport from the offical site. When I lunch it I see:

after few seconds the view is gone and nothing happens. No error... nothing.

I tried both exe (install) version and the zip version.

anyone knows what might be the problem?

Answer 1

1. Go to:

       "iReport-5.6.0/etc/ireport.conf"
   

2. You will see:

   jdkhome="/path/to/jdk"

3. Now just remove '#' i.e. uncomment it.It will look like

        jdkhome="/path/to/jdk"
   

4. set your jdk home path in double coat.

        jdkhome="your jdk path to be here"
   

5. Enjoy the iReport-5.6.0
