------------------------------------------------------------------------
[~bgowda] did you do the {{./gradlew bootJar}} build step on
https://github.com/vorburger/fineract-pentaho#build--use ? [Because of the ../
here|https://github.com/vorburger/fineract-pentaho/blob/develop/build.gradle#L44]
(link), it's important that {{fineract}} and {{fineract-pentaho}} are "next to
each other", so looking at your screenshot, you should have:
{noformat}C:\Users\Bharath\Desktop\Mifos\code\fineract
C:\Users\Bharath\Desktop\Mifos\code\fineract-pentaho{noformat}
But if you do have that, and have built fineract first as per the README then
the problem is another one... looks like it's not finding the Pentaho JARs? Hm.

> [~francisguchie] thanks for raising
> [https://github.com/apache/fineract/pull/1262/files] for FINERACT-1094, even
> though we cannot merge it due to licensing, it helps at least me to see it
> nicely isolated like that, e.g. for this discussion!
> Seeing that, and subsequent FINERACT-1125, led me to wonder if an alternative
> future architecture approach here could be to have a 3rd-party, such as the
> Mifos Initiative, offer Pentaho integration for Fineract not anymore by
> forking Fineract and adding code to it (which is always a PITA to maintain,
> in the long run), but by building and releasing an entirely separate runnable
> binary artifact (WAR / JAR) for it... this could be very neat even from a
> runtime perspective - completely separate REST API, and (possibly "heavy"?)
> report generation?
> _One could even image breaking out running scheduler jobs separately from API
> serving. Ultimately, this could effectively be the start of breaking Fineract
> 1.x into a CN-like "microservices" deployment... but I'd envision that to,
> always, just be one option, a possible alternative - with the current WAR/JAR
> remaining as is, forever - but it would just "assemble modules" for the
> "monolithic deployment distribution". Anything along these ideas is further
> down the line, but starting with making this possible for reporting could be
> a pragmatic start.... let's focus on that only, in this issue._
> This is more of a still somewhat vague idea at this stage. The next step
> would consist of spending more time understanding the details of how
> Fineract's {{ReportingProcessService}} is designed... I personally don't know
> that much about it, but looking at PR #1162, one can kind of gather that this
> {{PentahoReportingProcessServiceImpl}} needs to implement
> {{ReportingProcessService}}? What would it take for the front-end to be able
> to call another service (or Fineract to HTTP redirect reports to an external
> service...), and then for such an external service to be able to... do
> exactly what, actually - what's the lowest common denominator integration
> touch point, here? From an only very quick glance at the code, it looks like
> we're basically "passing through" JDBC connection details? So... what one
> would need is to be able to build an external Fineract (non-CN) service that
> can access the same DB? Sharing a minimal amount of
> {{fineract.infrastructure.core}} code, as a library...
> [~francisguchie], [~ptuomola], [~awasum], [~xurror], [~edcable] FYI.
