This is my action method in the managedBean which is called by the user to print a JasperReport, but when I try to put more than one report inside the zip file it's not working.
getPeriodScales are returning two objects and JasperFillManager.fillReport is running correctly as the reports print when I just generate data for one report, when I try to stream two reports though and open in WinRar only one appears and I get an "unexpedted end of archive", in 7zip both appear but the second is corrupted.
What am I doing wrong or is there a way to stream multiple reports without zipping it?
I figured out what was, I was setting the contentLenght of the response with bytes.length
size, but it should be bytes.length * Scale.getPeriodScales(this.startDate, this.endDate).size()
