Jasperreport 6.2 java.lang.StackOverflowError when using subreport

When using JasperReport 6.2.0 on a reporting having subreport, I got a java.lang.StackOverflowError

    net.sf.jasperreports.engine.fill.JRFillSubreport.prepare(JRFillSubreport.java:886) 
net.sf.jasperreports.engine.fill.JRFillElementContainer.prepareElements(JRFillElementContainer.java:352) 
net.sf.jasperreports.engine.fill.JRFillBand.fill(JRFillBand.java:421) 
net.sf.jasperreports.engine.fill.JRFillBand.fill(JRFillBand.java:396) 
net.sf.jasperreports.engine.fill.JRVerticalFiller.fillColumnBand(JRVerticalFiller.java:2028) 
...

Server is openSuse Linux 42.1, Tomcat7.0.53, Java is openjdk version "1.8.0_72", MariaDB database.

Adding log4j.logger.org.apache.commons.javaflow=info into log4j.properties as I found on some sites did NOT solve the problem.

I also have the commons-javaflow-20060411.jar library in my path.

Testing using JasperReport 6.3.0 raised a 

net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JRRuntimeException: 
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: 
org.apache.commons.javaflow.Continuation.suspend()Ljava/lang/Object;

...

Issues was NOT present when using Jasperreport 5.x version.

I have exactly the same install on various servers with same libraries versions, java versions, code version, etc... (Linux server, cloned disk installation), but only 3 of 17 servers have the issue...

Same database on refreshed on another server does NOT present the issue... Very strange... Like it's harware related, but it is not since some have same harware and one works and the other not.

Solution

  • Finally I solved the issue using version 6.1.1 of Jasperreports. Solved it on all servers.

    http://netcologne.dl.sourceforge.net/project/jasperreports/jasperreports/JasperReports%206.1.1/jasperreports-javaflow-6.1.1.jar http://netcologne.dl.sourceforge.net/project/jasperreports/jasperreports/JasperReports%206.1.1/jasperreports-fonts-6.1.1.jar http://jaist.dl.sourceforge.net/project/jasperreports/jasperreports/JasperReports%206.1.1/jasperreports-6.1.1.jar

    UPDATE: Thanks to @dada67 advise, I upgraded to version 6.3.0 without including the jasperreports-javaflow-x.y.z.jar (and removing all 3 files from version 6.1.1) and everything is working fine now.

    So the solution was to remove jasperreports-javaflow-x.y.z.jar
