JPS and VisualVM on Windows

October 4th, 2009

At several stops on the NFJS tour, I’ve been asked about some of the minor issues in running JPS and VisualVM on the Windows platform. The primary problem is that the processes in JPS and VisualVM are listed as:

<Unknown Application> (pid ###)

I have been successful in working around this by renaming the hsperfdata temp directory as noted in a separate thread on the Sun forums.

Speaking at TSS Europe

October 3rd, 2009

I’m counting down right along with the TSS staff until October 27th where I’ll have the great opportunity to share my OSS Debugging talk with the developers gathered in Prague, Czech Republic. My Denver acquaintance, Tim Berglund will also be coming along to share the right way to be Agile in your Database with Liquibase. Join us for two days of development insights, tools, techniques and one on one time with the speakers.
