Good day,

I have a web application which have a module to let user to download a report in excel file when click on a button.

However, I have hit this error :

I try to search from internet, but mostly talk about missing jar file in my class path issue. I checked my file in my environment, I think my jar files should be correct, the following is those jar files :

  1. commons-beanutils.jar
  2. commons-collections.jar
  3. commons-digester-2.1.jar
  4. commons-discovery-0.2.jar
  5. commons-logging-1.1.1.jar
  6. dom4j-1.6.1.jar
  7. iText-2.1.7.jar
  8. jakarta-regexp.jar
  9. jasperreports-4.7.0.jar
  10. jasperreports-applet-4.7.0.jar
  11. jasperreports-fonts-4.7.0.jar
  12. jasperreports-javaflow-4.7.0.jar
  13. jcommon-1.0.15.jar
  14. poi-3.8-20120326.jar
  15. poi-ooxml-3.8-20120326.jar
  16. poi-ooxml-schemas-3.8-20120326.jar
  17. stax-api-1.0.1.jar
  18. xmlbeans-2.3.0.jar

I am working with RAD 8.5.5 with Struts framework. Before this, I am working on the same web application in RAD 7.0.

RAD 7.0 is working fine with the button to download the report in excel file. However, when I transfer to RAD 8.5.5, I have hit this error.

Kindly let me know if I provide wrong information.

Kindly advise.

  1. This could be caused by a failure to load AWT classes (JRStyledTextParser’s static init does GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment()).

    Add -Djava.awt.headless=true to the server Java process to confirm or infirm this possible cause.
