iReport 3.7.3 crashing on startup on windows 10

Question

I'm working on ADempiere project that has JasperReports Integration for which I need to download and run iReport 3.7.3 but it's crashing upon startup, do tell how to fix it;

I have already tried following:

1. changing installed location directory, one with no special characters or space in username as asked todo in this wiki
2. giving appropriate jdk i.e. 1.6 by setting environment variables JAVA HOME & PATH
3. Run in compatibility mode with windows 7

Answer 1

I resolved the issue, sharing it so that it might save someone else time

goto location where you installed ireport; mine is D:\EOBI\ireport\iReport-3.7.3

here in \etc folder there will be file name ireport.conf edit it to give jdk path explicitly
