I am using iReport 5.0.1. I created a date parameter and am using it in my query:

When I preview the report, I enter my date parameter:

After I enter all the parameters and run the report, I get this error:

Print not filled. Try to use an EmptyDataSource...

What is going on here, and how do I fix this? Thanks!

I think the ! in $P!{...} means to include the parameter's literal value in the report.

Try using $P{start_date} and $P{end_date}, both without the !.

Effectively, your SQL statement is using:

and finalinsdate >= Feb/18/2013

That is not a valid SQL statement, which means PostgreSQL will complain with:

org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: ERROR: syntax error at or near "Feb"

For next time, copy and paste the source code, instead of taking a screen capture.
