<p>Hello,</p><p> </p><p>I'm currently trying to install Actuate BIRT viewer in my web application. </p><p>I managed to import the viewer in eclipse, to link it with my application and to start the viewer. </p><p> </p><p>But when i went to the landing page, i had an error with the test.rptdesign.</p><p> </p><p>I thaugh i made a mistake, so i tried to launch Actuate BIRT viewer alone, but i had the same error.</p><p> </p><p>Then, i tried without eclipse, launching directly Tomcat and deploying the viewer alone, but i have the same error :</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Render report failed.</p><p> </p><p>There is no more information about the error.</p><p> </p><p>What is my mistake?</p><p> </p><p>Thank you</p>
