This should have worked. I created one just to make sure there isn't a bug:
1) create a new bucketpool record
2) create a new bucket_def record for that bucketpool, with bucket_type 5, and
using a file named "jars"
3) create a file jars in /var/lib/fossology/bucketpools/x where x is your
bucketpool_pk
File jars contains one line "filename .*\.jar"
But there is still no joy in this because the output probably isn't what you
want:
http://repo.fossology.org/simpleIndex.php?mod=bucketbrowser&show=detail&upload=135&item=47665351
Clicking on "Show" shows you all the files in the jars plus extra files that
probably shouldn't be shown (looks like a bug). I don't think this is what you
are looking for. More on this at the end.

SRCPKGNAME is the name of the Debian or RPM package name of the file being
scanned.
I think what you want is a list of jars and what licenses are found in those
jars. Something like:
1) aidaref.jar GPLv2
2) jakarta.jar MPL, NPL
...
Then you can click on the jar name to drill down into the individual files. Is
that right?
Finding the jar's is easy, just point the browser at your upload, then click on
"Search" in the top yellow mini-menu and search on %.jar. But that report only
shows you the list of jar files, not their licenses.
Enhancement possibilities:
1) show licenses in the search results.
2) let search work with the license/bucket/copyright browser (so you can search
for .jar and the results are in license/bucket/copyright browser format).
3)???
How do you think it should work?
