Cause
This issue occurs if the dejavu fonts required for Jasper Reports cannot be loaded because the font loader package is not installed on the Red Hat Enterprise Linux operating system.
 
Resolution
To resolve this issue, first confirm that you are missing the fontconfig font manager. Once confirmed install the fontconfig font manager.
  1. Login as the root user.
  2. Run the following command to check if this is the problem cause.
# rpm -qa | grep fontconfig
#
If results are returned, this is not your problem cause. Please see the related RSA Knowledge Base Articles listed in the Notes section.
  1. If no result is returned, install the fontconfig package. 
# sudo yum install fontconfig*
  1. Confirm the fontconfig font manager is now installed. The following command should return a result.
# rpm -qa | grep fontconfig
fontconfig-2.8.0-3.el6.x86_64
  1.  Switch to the oracle user and restart RSA Identity Governance & Lifecycle  for your changes to take effect.
# su - oracle
# acm restart
