Agent is not getting instaniated

CommunityUser — Tue, 18 Apr 2017 20:57:32 GMT

Our application is Play 2.5.8 which use activator to run/compile. I installed the controller in my localhost and can view the controller dashboard. I downloaded the agent AppServerAgent-4.3.0.2, extracted and added the javaagent javaoptoin in my application build.sbt

javaOptions in run += "-javaagent:/Appdynamics/AppServerAgent-4.3.0.2/javaagent.jar"

When i start the application, no logs are generated in the agent and also agent is not displaying in dashboard

Then tried to add the running JVM

java -Xbootclasspath/a:"C:/Program Files/Java/jdk1.8.0_112/lib/tools.jar" -jar /Appdynamics/AppServerAgent-4.3.0.2/javaagent.jar 28900

I'm getting below error
