Java 11 Agent fails to start

[CommunityUser]

I am trying to use the java agent to evaluate appdynamics.  The agent will not start, where I expect to see the agent startup messages I see this:

Java 9 detected, booting with Java9Util enabled.
Unable to locate appagent version to use - Java agent disabled
JRE Oracle Corporation/11.0.1 is not supported, advanced source lookup disabled.
SLF4J: Class path contains multiple SLF4J bindings.
SLF4J: Found binding in [jar:file:/C:/Users/prubin.INGRNET/.m2/repository/ch/qos/logback/logback-classic/1.2.3/logback-classic-1.2.3.jar!/org/slf4j/impl/StaticLoggerBinder.class]
SLF4J: Found binding in [jar:file:/C:/Users/prubin.INGRNET/.m2/repository/org/apache/activemq/activemq-all/5.15.7/activemq-all-5.15.7.jar!/org/slf4j/impl/StaticLoggerBinder.class]
SLF4J: See http://www.slf4j.org/codes.html#multiple_bindings for an explanation.

The first two lines (in bold) showed up when I added the -javaagent:.. to the command line.

I could really use some guideance to debug this issue further.

Thanks

Paul.

Paul,

What version of the java agent are you using?  Java 11 support was ony added in 4.5.5 so no earier version will work in this scenario.

Warm regards,

Peter

The version that the controller downloaded to me is AppServerAgent-4.5.6.24621

[Peter_Holditch]

That should be fine then; can you share the full JVM command line?

wow!

What happens if you run

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-11.0.1\bin\javaw.exe -javaagent:/Users/prubin.INGRNET/Downloads/AppServerAgent-4.5.6.24621/javaagent.jar -version

That command line is generated by eclipse to run internally.  At my prior company  we were app dynamics customers and on Java 1.8 and I regularly generated detailed custom metrics into app dynamics while runing inside eclipse.

Anyway here is what I got after I updated your command line for windows proclivities.

Additional information:  I reversed the slashes the same I had to do on the command line.  This changed the results.  Seems I just need to map the logging to the correct logging libraries.

That response at least validates your agent installation.

Looking at the rest of your command line, the double quotes in this section

"-javaagent:C:\Users\prubin.INGRNET\eclipse\jee-2018-09\eclipse\configuration\org.eclipse.osgi\1008\0\.cp\lib\javaagent-shaded.jar"

look suspect.  Can you remove them?

Am I correct to understand that with the changed slashes, your agent is now working?

[CommunityUser · Accepted solution]

Yes with the slashes flipped the agent started no issue.  FYI I cannot remove thoes quotes as that is generated by the eclise runtime not by me.  I am now ready to start injecting business transactioins.

Thank you for your assistance.  Until I had to get the simple command line to work, I did not recognise what the issue actually was.
