[news.eclipse.tools.hyades] Re: Remote Weblogic Profiling

[mail@xxxxxxxxx (ani)]

Thans for the reply. I am able to profile my application now, but i have
one problem. When I click on the "Collect Object References", I get the
following error in the servicelog.log file

<SERVER_MSG time="2004:8:13:14:27:9" severity="SEVERE" text="EXTERNAL:
Java Profiling Agent:25048  MESSAGE_ID=0  MESSAGE= Heap dump failed
because an unknown class could not be resolved."/>

Also When I click on GC option, nothing happens, not even an error in
servicelog !

Why this should happen ?
