Hi,

I have downloaded BIRT runtime 4.6.0 from the following URL.

http://download.eclipse.org/birt/downloads/index.php#runtime

Pre-requisite note states Java 1.7. I am running Windows 8.1 with Java 1.7.0_40-b43. The WebViewerExample webapp will not start in Tomcat 7 (64bit).

I checked the manifest file inside packaged birt.war and it contains:

Manifest-Version: 1.0
Ant-Version: Apache Ant 1.9.4
Created-By: 1.8.0_51-b16 (Oracle Corporation)

I tried the install on another machine (Windows 7 32bit) with Java 8 and Tomcat 7 then 8. Same result.

With previous versions of the viewer I have simply copied the WebViewerExample to my Tomcat webapps directory, started services and it has worked fine.

Is the process different for 4.6.0? If so, I can not find any documentation.
Has anyone else downloaded the 4.6.0 viewer and had the same problems?

Thanks,
David

I have a similar behaviour: Birt runtime 4.6.0 can not be started under tomcat:

The tomcat manager shows a wrong version (although birt runtime 4.6.0 is installed):

<server>:8080/birt-viewer_460/

BIRT viewer has been installed.
Thank you for your choosing BIRT (Business Intelligence Reporting Tool).
Viewer Version : 4.5.0
Engine Version: 4.5.0
JRE version: 1.8.0_91

Maybe the downloaded runtime file "birt-runtime-4.6.0-20160607.zip" is corrupted?

Any idea or help?

Hi David,

My experience is same. We are using Apache Tomcat 8.0.24 and JRE 1.8.0_51 on Windows 7 64 bit.
When deploying Birt.war the operation end with error. I found the error messages in catalina.log file:

java.lang.SecurityException: Invalid signature file digest for Manifest main attributes

I need any help, how to find valid signature file, how to solve this problem?

Thanks:
Viktor

Hi,

I have followed the steps to get rid of the invalid signature problem. However now i am coming across the second problem as mentioned above :

- Fatal error occurred when try to startup report engine.

Has anyone been able to get around this issue.

I have tried launching apache tomcat with jre 1.7 as well as 1.8 , but with no luck

Okay little more info.

4.6.0 runtime will only work if there are no other BIRT runtimes in the tomcat instance. Note that with all previous versions that was not a problem. jar files also need to be fixed. Here's what I did:

zip -d org.eclipse.birt.runtime_4.6.0-20160607.jar META-INF/ECLIPSE_.RSA
zip -d org.eclipse.birt.runtime_4.6.0-20160607.jar META-INF/ECLIPSE_.SF
zip -d org.eclipse.datatools.connectivity.oda_3.5.0.201603142002.jar META-INF/ECLIPSE_.RSA
zip -d org.eclipse.datatools.connectivity.oda_3.5.0.201603142002.jar META-INF/ECLIPSE_.SF

Note I did this from the WEB-INF/lib/ directory in the WebViewerExample.

The servlet will now start, but still fails trying to run a report.

Same issue here. Tried to run runtime 4.6 in Apache 7.0 and 8.5 with Java 8. The engine does not start.

Someone could make birt-runtime start under tomcat?
I have the same issue, once deploy if I try to start the app from tomcat I won't start:

Cannot get BIRT viewer 4.6.0 runtime to work with Tomcat 8.0.30 and Java 1.8.0_45.

This is the Catalina stacktrace:

Any ideas on how to solve this would be much appreciated!

Solution:

As reported in Bug 497356 logged on Bugzilla:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=497356

The solution was to deleted the following files from the META-INF folder of the "org.eclipse.birt.runtime_4.6.0-20160607.jar" archive:

ECLIPSE_.RSA
ECLIPSE_.SF

I seem to have also been down this route. I was unable to run the BIRT 4.6.0 runtime (either the sample WebViewerExample, or within my own code) using Apache Tomcat 7.0.47 - was getting the same "Invalid signature file digest" error.

I found I had to delete the .RSA and .SF files from both the following jars:

org.eclipse.birt.runtime_4.6.0-20160607.jar
org.eclipse.datatools.connectivity.oda_3.5.0.201603142002.jar

This then worked OK for me.
