Hi,
Been working on this for a few days and I can't solve this. Whenever I wanna process a .jasper it doesn't work and I get that error instead. I'm working with php 8.1.25, xampp v3.3.0 and since I started 'til now I've been changing my jdk version. At first I thought it was a JasperReports library version (changed it too from 7.0.1 to 6.4.3 on Jaspersoft Studio), then I read something about the jdk but I've tried with jdk 17 (the first one), jdk 1.8.0_60, jdk 1.8.0_251 and now I'm currently with 1.7.0_80 and still the same. I've also tried to generate the pdf using the console but it doesn't work either. Now I'm trying with the hello_world example but the output is the same error/exception

use PHPJasper\PHPJasper;

public function crearReporteArticulo($eventoId, $articuloId)
    {
        require base_path('/vendor/autoload.php');
        $input = __DIR__ . '/vendor/geekcom/phpjasper/examples/hello_world.jasper';
        $output = __DIR__ . '/vendor/geekcom/phpjasper/examples';
        $options = [
            'format' => ['pdf', 'rtf']
        ];
        $jasper = new PHPJasper();
        $jasper->process(
            $input,
            $output,
            $options
        )->execute();//here it crashes
     }
