Standalone Applications Not Reporting to Controller

I've created manual configuration for an executable similar to below (app name changed)

<appdynamics-agent xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<controller host="localhost" port="8090" ssl="false" enable_tls12="false">
<application name="AbstractionLayer" />
<account name="customer1" password="***" />
</controller>
<machine-agent />
<app-agents>
<IIS>
<applications />
</IIS>
<standalone-applications>
<standalone-application executable="MyExecutable">
<tier name="MyExecutable" />
</standalone-application>
</standalone-applications>
</app-agents>
</appdynamics-agent>

The agent starts and says that it's connected to the controller, but after around 10 minutes it logs the following error:

2017-09-19 09:39:57.2947 17600 AppDynamics.Coordinator 1 15 Warn AgentThreadImpl Agent thread problem: System.Management.ManagementException: Invalid class
at System.Management.ManagementException.ThrowWithExtendedInfo(ManagementStatus errorCode)
at System.Management.ManagementObjectCollection.ManagementObjectEnumerator.MoveNext()
at AppDynamics.Coordinator.MachineSnapshot.bn.v()
at AppDynamics.Coordinator.MachineSnapshot.bn.w()
at AppDynamics.Coordinator.MachineSnapshot.bm.k()
at AppDynamics.Coordinator.MachineSnapshot.bq.run()
at AppDynamics.Utils.Threading.na.nb(Object )

Would appreciate suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong.

Thanks

Simon

Hi Ashish

I've restarted my machine and restarted my application and I'm now seeing tier/node regsitered in the controller UI.

Please feel free to close this issue.

Hi simon,

Thanks for contacting AppDynamics support.

To troubleshoot this issue further, could you please provide us the below details - 

  1. Did you see the Tier/Node regisrered on the controller UI for this instrumented application ?
  2. Can you please send us an output of below commands?
    tasklist /m Appd*
    tasklist /m mscor*
  3. Also can you please send us the latest zip of complete DotNetAgent folder located at %ProgramData%\AppDynamics for the review in secure path. I will provide you the secure path and credentials in private message.

Please let us know, if you have any question.

Thanks,

Ashish.
