Hi,

I found a similar community conversation about Apache here: https://community.appdynamics.com/t5/Archive/Apache-Agent-initialize-appdynamics-SDK-Init-failed-res...

Check out the reply from peter.payne that starts with this: "So what I keep forgetting (because this is the first application I've ever encountered this behaviour) is that all AppDynamics agents (Java, Machine, and Apache) assume that the configuration files are located in a directory relative to the location of the agent (or, in this case, SDK) binary (be it a .jar or .so)."

He then goes on to explain his solution. Please let me know if this helps.
