In our application, we were using Jasper 5.0 and now upgraded to 6.2.1 and after upgrading when I try to display reports in my application, I am facing Null pointer exception for LicenseManger.java class.
I had downloaded jar file from Jasper website and replaced 5.0 jars with 6.2.1 jars. My code compiled successfully and i was able to deploy my services as well.
A snippet of the exception stacktrace is below :

Any kind of help regarding this would be highly appreciated.
If you use the professional edition, you might need a new license file. Jasper provides more information on this topic on their homepage (http://www.jaspersoft.com/jrprolicense):
Do you think your license file is not functioning properly?
If you've reached this page due to an unforeseen error with your JasperReports Professional license file, please go to our iReport Forums page at http://community.jaspersoft.com/projects/ireport for tips and guidelines to resolve your issue.
With the professional edition it is also possible to ask this question directly at the support portal. I cannot provide more than one like right now because of my reputation.
If you are using the community edition, it is possible that the component you are using is now part of the professional edition. Please consider looking into the changelog (again, I cannot provide a link).

I saw lot of posts for this issue mentioned below.Either the proposed solution in the other websites are not working or some of the internet links are not working.
Do you have a concrete solution for this issue,I would like to know please?

Not sure, but the answer is depending on your BIRT version.
I am using 4.2.1 for development. This requires JRE 6 (no more, no less) for viewing. You can specifiy the VM on the command line or in eclipse.ini.
I’m currently using the library Dynamic Reports that uses Jasper Reports, but it seems the website is out of service now.
Will it be fixed soon ? Is the library still working ?
Thank you for your help.
Don't know what happened to the project but it also disappeared from SourceForge (https://sourceforge.net/p/dynamicreports/).
I guess the project is now on GIT
https://github.com/dynamicreports
Documentation and examples is still missing though
Pursuant to the failure of that website, the project was cloned by some users, from existing files and ported over to github. The documentation is still work in progress, as it seems that it has to be reconstituted from the ground up. The continuing work can be accessed at https://dynamicreports.readthedocs.io/en/latest/.
By the way, the original artifacts can still be downloaded from maven central and the library at least up to version 5.1.0. As for continuing support and maintenance, it's a matter of time, but these contributors contributors intend to see to it that this library flourishes.
Having already followed the advice in the SAP website documentation and installed the developer edition of SQLAnywhere 17, and also having manually run the installer for VS integration that is provided by this installation I still could not see any providers other than the MSSQL ones while creating an EF6 model in Visual Studio 2017.
I found this https://www.nuget.org/packages/Sap.Data.SQLAnywhere.EF6/17.0.7.3399
Does anyone know where to find documentation on how to use it? Nuget provides no links to documentation and does not list a repo.
I installed the package without incident and it appears in project references but it does not appear in the provider list when I try to create an EF model.
A request to the package author provoked this response:
Hi Peter,
For information and documentation go to:
https://sqlanywhere-forum.sap.com/
or with SyBase
http://infocenter.sybase.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.sybase.infocenter.dc01776.1604/doc/html/san1357754863708.html
Kind Regards, Erwin Bakels
While I appreciate the prompt response, the documentation link leads to information about doing another thing with a different version -- it's for code-first with EF4.3 while the library is for EF6 and I need database-first. To be fair to Erwin, I didn't explicitly tell him I wanted database-first, but it's still not a usable answer.
Further research suggests that changes in VS2017 prevent the installer from registering the provider correctly. This implies that until such time as SAP updates the installer to suit VS2017 there is no possibility of designer support for EF with SQL Anywhere.
I have confirmed with SAP support, that Sql Anywhere ADO.NET integration with Visual Studio is not supported in VS2017. You will have to use VS2015 or earlier.
SAP DocCommentXchange
I suggest you download the SQL Anywhere, developer edition. You will get all the files necessary to use EF.
While setting up the dashboard widgets on SonarQube 5.6.6 to display results from OWASP Dependency Check & ZAP and Xanitizer I encounter the following error message:
An error occurred while trying to display the widget "xanitizer". Please contact the administrator.
I have SonarQube running on a Windows 2008 Server R2 as a test instance.
What I did so far:
Installed the relevant plugins
Configured the plugin POM file with Windows paths (like: C:\Program Files (x86)\Jenkins\workspace\ZAP-Scanning\reports)
Created a reports either by a Jenkins job (for OWASP stuff) or by Xanitizer app.
Pointed SonarQube to the absolute path of Xanitizer report file in SonarQube GIU
Created each a SonarQube project manually
Linked the projects to the corresponding widget
The result is always the error message you can find above.
As a workaround I contacted Steve Springet directly. He pointed me to some GitHub pages, which did not help.
As I am not a developer: Is there any tutorial that might help?
Implementing Checkmarx plugin took some minutes to have scan results displayed.
Apparently I got stuck somewhere in the sonar.property files or the bridge between Windows and Linux syntax...
If helpful I can share the property and POM files with you.
This was a bug in the Xanitizer plugin. It has been fixed with version 1.4.0 of the plugin.
I'm recently going through my first Kentico upgrade on a site that was previously handed to me from somebody else. There were some hinks initially, but I have to say the V8.2 to V9.0 upgrade is gone off with a degree of success. There is one last issue I'm tackling. Initially the issue was with images stored in the database, but I resolved that with setting custom URL extensions. The style sheet we have in the database is returning a 404, so the entire site is without style.
I did some digging, and found the following:
While we were using ~/CMSPages/GetCSS.aspx in V8.2, that appears to have been deprecated/obsolete for some time now. The CSS references in the master page all point to ~/CMSPages/GetCSS.aspx.
In V8.2, I can confirm the presence of ~/CMSPages/GetResource.ashx, but that appears to be missing after the V9.0 upgrade. I installed a blank template site as well to confirm, and it's not there either. I verified I am using the latest upgrade package. I had already hit an issue with the pre-12/15 edition.
The V8.2 ~/CMSPages/GetResource.ashx does not work in a V9.0 as the API for CMS.UIControls no longer contains the ResourceHandler class (which is also used in ~/CMSPages/GetCSS.aspx).
I can confirm in the V8.2 codebase that ~/CMSPages/GetResource.ashx works, returning the specified stylesheet.
TL;DR - Upgrading from V8.2 to V9.0, I appear to be missing ~/CMSPages/GetResource.ashx, and am not sure where it got off to.
Environment Information
Test Server: Windows Server 2008R2 SP1 on IIS 7.5 w/ .NET 4.5.2, MSSQL 2008R2 Database backend

Kentico V8.2 Site in Portal Mode
I appreciate any ideas you have.
Thanks!
Most of the .ashx were moved to the CMS.UIControls assembly and adjusted to implement IHttpHandler.
This way the handlers can be used by any application that references the Kentico libraries, specifically the UIControls. This approach has been utilized e.g. in the new MVC support in Kentico 9.
If you need to customize the handlers you can take advantage of the GetFileHandler and AdvancedGetFileHandler abstract classes implementing IHttpHandler.
I was receiving a 404 on GetResource.ashx in v8 when deploying my site. I have my site setup as a web application. My problem was I was only deploying CMSApp using Visual Studio. I needed to also deploy CMSApp_AppCode. https://docs.kentico.com/display/K81/Publishing+web+application+projects+from+Visual+Studio
when I upgraded to v9 from v8.2 I was getting a 500 Error on GetResource.ashx. After my upgrade I just re-deployed. I don't know what the issue was, but getting the errors, I cleared out all the files on the Azure server then deployed. This fixed my error.
Maybe one of these two items will help you.
If I read the release notes correctly, they moved the files to the UIControls library and you can still utilize the old references without issue. I've upgraded my website from 8.0.48 to 9.0.1 and 9.0.4 and had no issues. In fact, I still use the /CMSPages/GetResource.ashx?scriptfile=/path/to/file.js I believe the change was specifically to accommodate the MVC model.
