The most requested thing that people have been asking me about is a full download and installation guide for BIRT.

 

When I first learned of BIRT I decided to go online, download it and try it out. Being used to commercial software with full manuals and video tutorials and single click installations I was challenged somewhat by having to seek out and download six separate files from disparate locations. What’s more I had to download two of the files twice since the mix of installers I found did not sit well together!

 

Having been through the learning curve I have written a download and getting started guide for the complete beginner to save other people time and effort.

 

In this guide I cover

 

Where I eventually found all the files I needed.

 

Exactly how I installed them, with screenshots

 

How I connected to my own MS SQL data source

 

How I wrote a quick sample report

 

Where I found more in depth tutorials

 

How I published my reports on a web server
