Images in cfr reports are not displayed with CF 2025

Images in cfr reports are not displayed with CF 2025, no matter whether I use a relative path, an absolute path, or a file url. They were still displayed in previous CF versions.

Is this a restriction of the developer version I am currently using?

Any help is appreciated.

    No, it's a bug that others have hit as well. Sadly, the tracker ticketing system (tracker.adobe.com) has been down for a couple of weeks. (The site comes up, but tickets cannot be seen or created.) That has been reported to Adobe, yet still we wait.

    As such, it's hard to know where things stand on the bug where others reported this issue some cfreport weeks ago. There's no workaround that I know of.

    My sense, from digging into things, is that it started with a change in update 8 regarding xml processing, which is affecting cfreport/cfr processing with regard to the internal jasper report process it relies upon (which I found in digging into the class files created for the cfr file). The cf docs indicate a code change needed for xmlparse, but that doesn't help us: again this issue would be about the internal cf code processing of that xml, nothing we can control.

    And also not worked around by any of many combination of jvm args that I and others have attempted. 

    Again, for several days I've wanted to offer this elaboration (and more) in the tracker ticket but I cannot. I leave this here for you, Adobe, and anyone else interested in the matter.
