Cannot locate Jasper Report (.jrxml) source path

Question

I have 6 Jasper Reports, that are waiting on this code to compile each, and fillReport with the parameters i pass in. I am using Eclipse and created the reports with Jaspersoft Studio.

public class PrintCertificate { 
private static Connection con = null;

public PrintCertificate( String certType, String firstName, String lastName, String confirmDate, String managerName) {
    DbWorker db = new DbWorker();

    try {
        con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/db", "root", "password");
    } catch (Exception e) {
        new DbConnectErrorDialog().setVisible(true);
    }
    String OUT_PUT = "C:/tmp/" + firstName.toLowerCase() + "_" + lastName.toLowerCase() + "_" + certType + ".docx";
    String REPORT = "";

    if(certType.equals("rci_eng")) {
        REPORT = "./certificates/RCI_Eng.jrxml";
    } else if(certType.equals("rci_span")) {
        REPORT = "./certificates/RCIA_Span.jrxml";
    } else if(certType.equals("confirm_eng")) {
        REPORT = "./certificates/Confirm_Eng.jrxml";
    } else if(certType.equals("confirm_span"))  {
        REPORT = "./certificates/Confirm_Span.jrxml";
    } else if(certType.equals("comm_eng")) {
        REPORT = "./certificates/Comm_Eng.jrxml";
    } else if(certType.equals("comm_span")) {
        REPORT = "./certificates/Comm_Span.jrxml";
    }

        HashMap<String, Object> map = new HashMap<>();
        map.put("FirstName",firstName);
        map.put("LastName",lastName);
        map.put("ManagerName", managerName);
        map.put("DateOfConfirmation", confirmDate);

        try  {
            JasperReport jr = JasperCompileManager.compileReport(ClassLoader.getSystemResourceAsStream(REPORT));
            JasperPrint jp = JasperFillManager.fillReport(jr, map, con);
            JRDocxExporter export = new JRDocxExporter();
            export.setExporterInput(new SimpleExporterInput(jp));
            export.setExporterOutput(new SimpleOutputStreamExporterOutput(new File(OUT_PUT)));
            SimpleDocxReportConfiguration config = new SimpleDocxReportConfiguration();
            export.setConfiguration(config);
            export.exportReport();
        } catch (JRException ex) {
        }
}
}

When i get to this line it fails, and says "Source Not Found" and failing at EventDispatchThread.pumpOneEventForFilters(int) line: not available

JasperReport jr = JasperCompileManager.compileReport(ClassLoader
.getSystemResourceAsStream(REPORT));

This makes me believe its due to REPORT (the path of the jrxml) being wrong. PrintCertificate.java, and the reports are located at:

/src/print/PrintCertificate.java

/src/certificates/RCI_Eng.jrxml

Did I use the right path when setting REPORT?

MY BUILD PATH

You are missing some required libraries on your classpath. Please check the requirements for Jasper and add all required libraries to the classpath of your application. — Mark Rotteveel, Nov 28 '15 at 09:16

You should have below libraries to run typical Jasper report.

I added all of these libraries and the Jakarta and commons ones that were listed on the Jasper reports requirements http://community.jaspersoft.com/wiki/jasperreports-library-requirements But now it is failing to even load the Main method because it seems like theres conflicts. I am adding an image of my Build Path – webminer07 Nov 28 '15 at 09:51

According to your exception it says `Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.commons.digester.Digester`. But I can see that lib in your build path. Remove all the unnecessary lib files and try to run again.(Except mysql-driver,jCalender etc..) – Madushan Perera Nov 28 '15 at 10:02
I didnt have Apache Ant added. http://ant.apache.org/bindownload.cgi There are 22 JARs included in this. Do i just need ant.jar? or all 22 of them? – webminer07 Nov 28 '15 at 10:16
NO. I dont think so.. Dont try to add everything . There are plenty of libraries come with Jasper Report . But you dont need to add them all. Adding unnecessary libraries makes your project heavy. – Madushan Perera Nov 28 '15 at 10:20

Why you are putting . in "REPORT = "./certificates/Confirm_Eng.jrxml";" path. Give relative path without .

Is this an answer to the problem or a comment to improve the code? – Petter Friberg Nov 28 '15 at 17:52
