Profiling circle of death

[heddle]

Sorry for the noob question. Literally I am trying the product for the first time.

Tried running "profile from within the IDE (eclipse)" from the app. It said to install the plugin. I did.

After installing the plugin successfully, from within eclipse I (after restarting eclipse) launch the app using the now present "Profile" option (alongside run and debug.) I get an error dialog stating:

No valid YourKit Java Profiler configuration settings are found: file blahblah/.yjp.ide2023_5.txt is missing or is obsolete.

The file actually is there and contains:

agent-path.arm64=/Applications/YourKit-Java-Profiler-2023.5.app/Contents/Resources/bin/mac/libyjpagent.dylib
plugin-ide=Eclipse
plugin-version=20180410
profiler-dir=/Applications/YourKit-Java-Profiler-2023.5.app/Contents/Resources

so I guess it is obsolete since that was the only other option.

If I try the suggestion, to launch the app and run "profile from within IDE" I get an error telling me to install the plugin. I'm back to where I started.

How do I get out of this infinite loop?

Thanks!

Hi,

Eclipse and the profiler UI should use the same home directory to let the plugin work.

Could you please check whether the path from the "No valid YourKit Java Profiler configuration settings are found: file blahblah/.yjp.ide2023_5.txt is missing or is obsolete." message matches the actual path to ide2023_5.txt.

Hi,

Thank you for the reply.

They match. It is my home dir /Users/heddle (MacOS) then the subdir .yjp and in that dir is the file ide2023_5.txt.

Could you please send all log files from ~/.yjp/log to support@yourkit.com

Please try YourKit Java Profiler 2023.5.228. It should fix the problem.
