Report file version problem

cvh

Hello all,<br />
<br />
I'm new to BIRT (using v2.6.0). I have a report which I have designed using the Eclipse environment. I can run the report (manually) successfully. I'm now trying to run the same report by calling it from my application, but it fails due to a report version error:<br />
<br />
<span style='color: #FF0000'>org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api.EngineException: The design file file:/home/clive/workspace/FinalReport/FinalReportAllSubscriptions.rptdesign has error and can not be run.<br />

The error says that the BIRT Report Engine which is integrated in your Application is older then the BIRT Designer version in which your report was designed.
If you use BIRT 2.6.0 you have to update your Application and integrate Report Engine version 2.6.0. Another alternative is to design your reports using the same BIRT Designer version as the one that is integrated in your application.
