Data source in Jasper reports

I am using Jasper Reports Server opensource 4.5 version.
While uploading a report, everytime, I have to link the new report to a data source.
I have created a data source and my all reports run on same data source.
Is there any way to set the data source as default so that all the new reports automatically links to the data source?
How do you upload your reports to jasperserver? If you use the plugin in iReport, it's very simple to link the datasource because you can just choose the datasource from the repository.

what are different preview report using excel preview and excel preview(using J ExcelApi) in iReports 2.0.2?

i'm still new in Jasper reports.i still confuse what the different preview report using excel preview and excel preview(using J ExcelApi) in iReports 2.0.2.Which is more common that people use?. is there any effect when we generate the report?. Can anybody tell me?
Jasperreports supports multiple export formats (xls, pdf, csv, etc...). After developing a report using iReport, you can generate a report in any of those export formats. The best way to view those reports is using an external appliction that you can map. For example, xls report is tied with Excel and pdf reports are tied with Adobe Reader. The new version of iReport supports generation of these reports using the application itself (preview). However, what happens in the background is the same whether you view it with external viewer or internaly using iReport "preview". Personaly, I prefer to use external viewer. The exported reports are cached in the compilation directory.

Report generation in web applications

As part of my web application, i am using iReport tool to generate reports and its working fine but my doubt is, is it possible to generate xls type report in browser like pdf (we can show the pdf file in the browser)? Means I need to show reports in xls file or word document in the client machine, is it possible? Can anybody clear my doubt?
Although it is a bit late, I'll try to give a generic answer
you can fetch your data to your local Jasper Reports server via JSON.
There is a sample of JsonDataSource in the 4.5.0 version of jasperreports at *\demo\samples\jsondatasource
to run report and receive output pdf, etc. you can use REST API for Jasper Server
then you send output to end user

How to convert SSRS 2008 Server reports to SSRS 2008 Client Reports

I have a large SSRS 2008 Server Report Project (more than 200 reports). Currently my company strategy has been changed and we want to convert these server reports to client reports.
All of the Server reports use stored procedures (or in some cases from the SQL functions)
All of them work properly andthere is no problem
Beause of project scale it is not a good idea to create all of server reports in client again.
So I want to check how to convert SSRS 2008 Server reports to SSRS 2008 Client reports (.rdl to .rdlc).
Note : I know that client reports use Dataset and I have to create Dataset. I'm also looking for a way to generate these dataset too. But for now I'm just looking for a way to convert .RDL files to .RDLC files.
If there are any application which can convert RDL XML to RDLC XML let me know.
Any help appreciated.
After a while I foud this Converting RDL and RDLC Files helpfull
1- Rename the .rdl file to use the .rdlc file extension.
2- In Visual Studio 2008, open the solution or project that will contain the report.
3- Create or add the dataset that defines the data you want to use to your projector solution. For more information, see Creating Data Sources for a Report.
4- On the Project menu, click Add Existing Item and then select the .rdlc file that you created in the first step.
5- In the project, open the form or Web page that will contain the report.

Crystal report file does not get deployed to server in ASP.NET MVC

I am using a crystal reports through crystal report viewer server side control in a webform.
I am using a webform because the crystal report viewer provides an easy way to export to PDF and to Excel.
My problem is that when I deploy to the server, the crystal report .rpt file does not get copied to the target folder.
My solution structure looks like this:
Solution
|-Content
|-Controllers
|-Models
|-Views
|-etc...
|-Reports
|-Default.aspx
|-Report.rpt
On the server, the Report.rpt file is missing after I publish.
If you right click on the Report.rpt file in Solution explorer and view the properties, make sure that the "Build Action" is set to Content. I believe by default it is set to Embedded resource.
