[jboss-dev-forums] [Design of JBoss Profiler] - Problem in setting up JBoss Profiler 2 in Jboss 4.2.1

[spatnaik]

Hi,

I'm running or rather trying to run JBoss profiler version 2 in JBoss 4.2.1. I have followed the instructions in the README.txt , but cannot get it to work.

My setup is as follows:
- Windows XP machine
- Downloaded Jboss Profiler 2 CR8
- Copied jboss-profiler.jar to JBOSS_HOME/bin
- Copied jboss-profiler.properties to JBOSS_HOME/bin
- Copied jboss-profiler-plugins.jar to JBOSS_HOME/bin
- Copied asm.jar to JBOSS_HOME/bin
- Copied jboss-profiler.sar to JBOSS_HOME/server/default/deploy
- Edited run.bat to include the following line:
set JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS% -javaagent:jboss-profiler.jar -Djboss-profiler.properties=jboss-profiler.properties

jboss-profiler.properties file has -

enable=yes
cpu=yes
memory=yes
includes=org.jboss.profiler.*
excludes=*
visibility=private
save=yes
startup=yes
repository=no
remote=yes
store=memory
location=.
host=localhost
port=5400
ejb=yes
servlet=yes
jsf=yes
jmx=yes
rmi=yes
corba=yes
plugin.1=org.jboss.profiler.plugins.Hibernate

When I start up jboss, I have the following on console - 

===============================================================================

  JBoss Bootstrap Environment

  JBOSS_HOME: C:\jboss

  JAVA: C:\Java\bin\java

  JAVA_OPTS:  -Dprogram.name=run.bat -server -Xms128m -Xmx512m -javaagent:jboss-profiler.jar -Djboss-profiler.properties=jboss-profiler.properties -Dsun.rmi.dgc.client.gcInterval=3600000 -Dsun.rmi.dgc.server.gcInterval=3600000

  CLASSPATH: C:\Java\lib\tools.jar;C:\jboss\bin\run.jar

===============================================================================

JBoss Profiler 2.0.CR8 (Sun Microsystems Inc. 1.5.0_12)
JBoss Profiler depends on external communication module
15:10:14,615 INFO  [Server] Starting JBoss (MX MicroKernel)...
.......

The server boots smoothly.

I have an enterprise application(Icefaces /EJBs/Jbpm workflow) ear deployed on the server which I want to profile.

Now at the command prompt I say -
java -jar jboss-profiler-client.jar startProfiler

And I get the following exception - 

2008-04-17 15:40:25,299 ERROR [org.jboss.profiler.client.cmd.Client] Can not get

        ... 5 more

I have 2 questions - 

1. While booting, the server log says 'JBoss Profiler depends on external communication module '
Is there some other jar which I need to put somewhere? 
I tried putting the jboss-remoting.jar, concurrent.jar in JBOSS_HOME/bin. But it would throw other kinds of errors.

2. I went into the jmx console and checked out the Communicator MBean
and it has the following configuration - 
Host                  localhost
Socket              false
SocketPort         5400
Rmi                   false
RmiPort             5401
Http                   false
HttpPort              5402

It would throw RuntimeException when I try to enable Socket by setting to true. My guess is this being disabled, its not able to establish socket connection ! Is it so?

I greatly appreciate any help. :)

Thanks,
Smita
