I just tried this small example 

entity top is
end;
library IEEE;
    use IEEE.std_logic_1164.all;
architecture arch of top is
begin
  process
    begin
      wait for 1 ns;
      report "message 1";

    end process;
end;

Using these commands 

vlib work
vcom report.vhd
vsim -i top -msgmode both -do "run -all"
And it works for me.

Can you try this and show us your script and transcript.
