From what I can recall, JasperReports is a library, not really an
application. There is not a main-class attribute within the jar
manifest, though there are several demos (not tried) available with it.
I also believe the SF package (project zip) is compiled to Java 5, so
you'd need to rebuild/recompile it for Java 1.4 (the ant script should
work fine, with a few tweaks here and there). We use this at work with
an old java app server and have to compile it to Java 1.3, though 2.0.3
has some issues with the new code compiling to 1.3, so we haven't been
able to do it yet.
