I am trying out Stackify Prefix v3.0.18 to profile a Spring Boot application in WebLogic 12c. The JVM is started with the stackify-java-apm
agent as per the instructions:
-javaagent:"C:\Program Files (x86)\StackifyPrefix\java\lib\stackify-java-apm.jar"
On accessing the Spring Boot Actuator's /health
endpoint, I do not get anything reported in the Prefix dashboard at http://localhost:2012. Is anything amiss here?
A couple of observations were made; the Prefix agent was trying:
- To load a properties file from a Linux/Unix path and failed to do so
16:16:24.826 [main] WARN com.stackify.apm.config.a - Unable to find properties file /usr/local/stackify/stackify-java-apm/stackify.properties
- To write a file into a non-existent directory
C:\Program Files (x86)\Stackify\stackify-java-apm\log\
I was unable to find an end-to-end demo or tutorial on setting up and using Prefix to profile a Java application.
