Hi banderson7,
Most runtime errors will be written to $SPLUNK_HOME/var/log/splunk/jmx.log. Some errors can be found in $SPLUNK_HOME/var/log/splunk/splunkd.log. Does anything interesting show up there?
Also, please note that the Splunk Add-on for Java Management Extensions supports the following JMX Connectors:
rmi (JSR160 Standard Implementation
and MX4J's JSR160 Implementation)
iiop (JSR160 Standard Implementation
and MX4J's JSR160 Implementation)
soap (MX4J only) hessian (MX4J only)
burlap (MX4J only)
Note: If you are using Java 8, MX4J protocols are not supported.
