New Label templates for JasperReports

I had to create jasper templates for Avery 5390 and 5388 at work, so I decided to share the templates with those of you who are looking to print labels from iReport and/or JasperServer. You can download the templates here (includes 5390, 5388 and 5960) . The templates have a square where you should be able to safely put your content. I came up with the squares' dimensions by trial and error so please do some trial printings to see if it works for you. Also, groovy is the default language in my iReport so for all my templates had the language attribute set to groovy; if you run into problems with jasperserver you can do either one of the following:
  • Place the groovy jars in JasperServer's webapp's lib folder.
  • OR
  • Edit the templates to disable groovy (remove the language="groovy" attribut from jasperReport node). Many thanks to AndrĂ© for pointing that out!
The templates are released under the MIT license.

Power Automate: SFTP action "Test connection failed"

When I added an SFTP create file action to my Power Automate flow ( https://flow.microsoft.com ) , I got the following error in the action step, within the designer: "Test connection failed" To troubleshoot the Power Automate connection, I had to: go the Power Automate portal then "Data"->"Connections"  the sftp connection was there, I clicked on the ellipsis, and entered the connection info It turns out, that screen provides more details about the connection error. In my case, it was complaining that "SSH host key finger-print xxx format is not supported. It must be in 'MD5' format". I had provided the sha fingerprint that WinScp shows. Instead, I needed to use the MD5 version of the fingerprint. To get that, I had to run in command line (I was in a folder that had openssh in it): ssh -o FingerprintHash=md5 mysftpsite.com To get the fingerprint in MD5 format. I took the string (without the "MD5:" part of the string) and put
