I’ve been working for the last two weeks to follow the instructions  
for integrating Jasper Reports ( iReport) with Ruby on Rails and was  
ready to take the last steps when the article at  
[http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/howtointegratejasperreports](http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/howtointegratejasperreports)  
suddenly disappeared?  
Does anyone out there have a copy of this or be willing to converse  
upon how they accomplished this feat.  
I’ve gotten to where I export XML data and am able to use iReport to  
make it look good.  
Now, I need examples of the code in Ruby on Rails where I call the  
report. I seem to recall there was a helper and a model that worked  
together but???

Here is what google cached:

Does that help?

The wiki has been switched over to the new implementation. The old  
wiki  
can still be found at [oldwiki.rubyonrails.org](http://oldwiki.rubyonrails.org). So your link would now  
be:

[http://oldwiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/howtointegratejasperreports](http://oldwiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/howtointegratejasperreports)

The wiki admins are working on a solution for handling the missing  
pages that’s  
a little more helpful.
