BEA Java Run Time Analyzer not working with jonas
Last modified: 2016-11-14 12:13:36 EST
Description of problem: the JRA doesn't work, and comes back with error message: [JRockit] New Management Server connection from host-41.support.localnet [JRockit] Error opening JRA recording file: jrarecording.xml Recording canceled. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): jonas-4.1.2-1jpp_14rh java-1.4.2-bea-1.4.2.04-1jpp_11rh How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Launch jonas with the java options "-Xmanagement" 2. On the console, launch /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.4.2-bea-1.4.2.04/bin/console 3. and try to connect Actual results: Error message that it can't write to the log file Expected results: It can write the log file The problem is because JRockit will try to write to the $CWD of the jonas process rather than its home directory. Jonas should cwd to its home directory better starting: $ ls -ld /proc/`pidof java`/cwd lrwxrwxrwx 1 jonas jonas 0 Oct 25 11:29 /proc/3053/cwd -> /root
Could you please specify how jonas is launched, and how/where the java options "-Xmanagement" is specified? RHAPS comes with a service script, and the recommended way to start jonas is by using the service script, eg. service jonas start. To specify the -Xmanagement option when starting jonas with the service script, we would recommend adding the option in the /etc/sysconfig/jonas. I've tried the above setting and it seems to be working fine.
The problem isn't with the way Jonas is started per se. The problem is that the JVM will have a non-writable cwd, and that BEA JRockit is very stupid and uses that cwd as a temp directory. Adding a "cd /usr/share/jonas/work" in the init script before jonas/the JVM is launched should be enough to allow jonas to write to its current dir.
When using the BEA Java Run Time Analyzer to do JRA recording, there's an option to specify where the file goes in the JRA Recording dialog, by specifying /tmp/jrarecording.xml, the recording will go fine.
Hi, A package has been built with a fix. Please test the package at the below link and see if that solves your issue. http://people.redhat.com/dzickus/rhel7/.rts5227_831e5d3/ Cheers, Don
Gah, wrong bz. I apologize for that. Cheers, Don
