Configuring Apache Tomcat in order to integrate iReport in Oracle Apex - Problem

Neruda from ItalyJan 8 2017 — edited Jan 13 2017

Hello. I don't know if this is the right section in the forum where I can write about this topic.

I have been using Oracle Apex 5.0.0 and Oracle 11g. Many months ago I installed ORDS under Apache Tomcat 7.0 in order to print (only) basic pdf reports under Apex. Honestly, I am absolutely not satisfied about these reports because they are not attractive.

I heard about iReport as a free tool so I decided to use it.

I am following, step by step, all the instructions listed here (http://www.apexninjas.com/blog/2011/05/apex-printing-with-jasper-reports-installing-the-needed-software/)

and watching this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZOnuie-1TIk)

I didn't uninstall ORDS. As I said above, Apache Tomcat 7.0 was already installed (HTTP port = 8080). Therefore I stopped the service.

1. I copied the files ojdbc6.jar and orai18n.jar from C:\JasperReportsIntegration\lib in [Tomcat installation folder]\lib;

2. I copied the file JasperReportsIntegration.war from C:\JasperReportsIntegration\webapp in [Tomcat installation folder]\webapps;

3. I started again the Apache Tomcat Service.

I wanted to edit the file [Tomcat installation folder]\conf\Catalina\localhost\JasperReportsIntegration.xml but the problem is that this file doesn't exist. The folder is totally empty. Why does this happen? Could you kindly help me?

Thank you very much.

Sergio
