We will be using some scripting in these recipes, so it's important to make sure that we have the MongoDB JDBC library copied to the correct location in the Pentaho Report Designer.
Make sure you have access to the filesystem from which you will be running the Pentaho Report Designer.
In this section, we will be copying a select number of libraries that will allow us to make sure that the Pentaho Report Designer can connect to MongoDB. Without these libraries we will be unable to complete the recipes in this chapter:
On your filesystem, navigate to
PentahoEE/design-tools/report-designer/plugins/pentaho-mongodb-plugin/lib.
Copy the
mongo-java-driver.xxx.jar
file.Navigate to
PentahoEE/design-tools/report-designer/lib
.Paste the
mongo-java-driver.xxx.jar
file.Restart the Pentaho Report Designer.
