 Posted: Tue Mar 13, 2012 12:54 am Post subject: Sun JDK and JVisualVM debugging AXIS2/Tomcat7 |
 |
|
I have an AXIS2 web service which I am trying determine if it has a memory leak.
I use Sun JDK on my amd64 Gentoo system.
I have configured Tomcat7 to start with debugging enabled, by updating TOMCAT_START="jpda start" in /etc/conf.d/tomcat-7
I have Tomcat 7 running under user 'tomcat'
I run jvisualvm as root, it's easier than running as 'tomcat' and tomcat shows up in the list of local VM's
I can connect and see the heap, classes and threads, I cannot see the CPU, for some reason.
I am also unable to generate a Heap Dump (I was planning on doing a before and after).
Nor can I use memory profiling.
Any suggestions as to what is wrong?
My java config is as follows...
| Code: |
root@lyalls-pc /
# eselect java-vm list
Available Java Virtual Machines:
[1] icedtea-7
[2] sun-jdk-1.6 system-vm
[3] sun-jre-bin-1.6
root@lyalls-pc /
# java -version
java version "1.6.0_31"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_31-b04)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.6-b01, mixed mode)
root@lyalls-pc /
# |
The jvisualvm log entry that I think is appropriate is | Code: | attach settings -----------------------------------
target type =
server type =
remote =false
direct =false
dynamic JDK16 =true
pid =11544
host =
host os =Linux, 64bit JVM
transient port =-1
instrumentation filter ----------------------------
Filter type: Inclusive
Filter value:

| Having the same issue. Did you ever find a work-around ? |

I ended up changing the home directory in /etc/passwd for the tomcat user from /dev/null to an existing directory.
Running :
| Code: | sudo -u tomcat jvisualvm
|
works now. |

This did not work for me. I had to run
as my user for it to run properly. Also, I had to set the home dir and shell in /etc/passwd for the tomcat user. Once that was done, I could start it with:
| Code: | | su - tomcat -c visualvm & |
from a root login. This is with Tomcat 9 and IcedTea.
N.B.: Unless you run VisualVM as the tomcat user, you will not get any useful debugging information. |
