Re: [linuxtools-dev] OProfile + Linux Tools + CentOS 
Hi


First, thanks for the reply.

Eclipse Error Log says:

<<<
"opcontrol process error output: sudo: sorry, you must have a tty to run sudo" seems to be the hint 

>>> Did you verify that oprofile works as expected on the command line?

YES.  I did it like on http://blogs.epfl.ch/article/24223

I also tried with the latest nightly build today > did not work either


I executed both

- install.sh

- install-noconsolehelper.sh


Many thanks for assistance

Hi


I have troubles starting OProfile (0.9.4 latest Version for CentOS) out
of Eclipse on CentOS.

I have tried using CentOS 5.4 + Eclipse Helios 2 SR2 in a virtual
machine (put in timer interrupt mode like described in [1]).

Eclipse oprofile hasn't worked very well in a virtual machine and is not
tested very much. It may work, if the module is manually loaded with
timer=1 prior profiling from within Eclipse...

Did you verify that oprofile works as expected on the command line? If
yes, what sequence of commands did you execute to make it work?


The error is the following when clicking on "Profile As>  Profile with
OProfile" in the Eclipse menu:

"Exit code of opcontrol indicates failure"

OProfile itself is working and I also executed
"natives/linux/scripts/install.sh"

Does this mean that if you use opcontrol in a terminal profiling works
for you? If yes, what is the sequence of commands you are executing?


I have also seen some irregularities concerning the unittests of Linux
Tools 0.8.0 for OProfile support.

https://hudson.eclipse.org/hudson/job/linuxtools-Indigo/346/testReport/

Last time I checked all unit tests passed for me locally. I think we
can't run oprofile tests in the hudson job since it requires root access
and proper installation of consolehelper/no-consolehelper (for the time
being). Perhaps I'm wrong :)


I also tried on a real machine (CentOS 5.6 + Eclipse Indigo) and there I
get also an error (I think it was the same on - I might deliver the
message later since I am currently at an other place).

It should definitely work on a physical machine. Could you try
installing latest Linux Tools from updates-nightly[1] and try again. If
oprofile fails, it should give you some hints in the Eclipse error log.


Well, shouldn't it work out of the box?

Kind of. If you installed Linux Tools from our update-site, you need to
set up consolehelper manually. After this step it should work.

Let us know how it goes.

Thanks,
Severin
