FATAL ERROR in native method: processing of -javaagent failed, processJavaStart failed

I use this command line: -javaagent:/home/jenkins/tools/jacoco/lib/jacocoagent.jar=port=6300,destfile=/home/jenkins/jacoco/jacoco.exec,output=tcpserver,includes=myPackage.*,append=false

I am using OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM Corretto-11.0.19.7.1, the latest version of tomcat9 and jacoco 0.8.10.

I have the same configuration on windows and it works fine. My application is a war buit with maven and I don't have any problems on windows.

I tried to change my tomcat version and my JDK version but I still have the same problem. I don't find any solutions on the web. I have no Jacoco dependencies in my pom.xml

Solution

  • Thanks for your help. I solved my problem by changing:

    export JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Dlogback.ContextSelector=JNDI -Xms2G -Xmx16G -javaagent:/home/jenkins/tools/jacoco/lib/jacocoagent.jar=port=6300,destfile=/home/jenkins/jacoco/jacoco.exec,output=tcpserver,includes=com.worldline.*,address=localhost,append=false"

    By:

    export CATALINA_OPTS="-Dlogback.ContextSelector=JNDI -Xms2G -Xmx16G -javaagent:/home/jenkins/tools/jacoco/lib/jacocoagent.jar=port=6300,destfile=/home/jenkins/jacoco/jacoco.exec,output=tcpserver,includes=com.worldline.*,address=localhost,append=false
