Charts failing in web viewer

johnrellis

Hi All, <br />
<br />
I have deployed the web viewer example (2.3) onto a jboss application server on a linux system, i can generate reports fine, however when I try to generate a report with a chart, the chart fails with the following error showing up on the report:<br />
"<br />
<em class='bbc'>The following items have errors:<br />
<br />
Chart NewChart:<br />
+ CREATE_EXTENSION_FAIL </em><br />
"<br />
<br />
Any help with this is greatly appreciated!<br />
