Error while using jpexport ( exporting jprofiler .jps files )

Question

I have a JProfiler snapshot file(.jps) which is created using offline profiling.

While I'm trying to export it using JPexport script getting below error:

/opt/jprofiler9/bin$ jpexport ~/test.jps HotSpots ~/HotSpots.html Loading /home/pavan/test.jps JProfiler has not been initialized. Please run the JProfiler executable first

Could any one please elaborate what it mean and what it need to be done to successfully export views in html.

NOTE : I've started my application in tomcat and add agentpath to catalina_opts in set environment

export CATALINA_OPTS="-agentpath:/opt/jprofiler9/bin/linux-x64/libjprofilerti.so=offline,id=80,nowait,config=/opt/jprofiler9/api/samples/common/config.xml"

Answer 1

jpexport requires that the JProfiler license has been entered. When you start the JProfiler GUI, you are prompted to enter the license key, then jpexport will work.

On a headless machine, copy $HOME/.jprofiler9/config.xml from a machine with a GUI where a license key was entered to the same path.
