Hi.
I Installed the Eclipse monitoring tools from the Callisto Discovery site
with the Eclipse update manager but when I try it out I get the following
error message:
Error occurred during initialization of VM
Could not find agent library on the library path or in the local
directory: piAgent
And I quite frankly haven't got a clue about what I am supposed to do
about it...
Can someone please help me?

What kind of hardware? If you're on a 32-bit hardware system, then we
shouldn't be seeing any of these.
If you're on a 64-bit system, did you get the 32-bit Eclipse for Linux
x86 or the 64-bit Eclipse for x86_64? If the latter, are you running
with a 64-bit JVM?
You're right that the update manager should automatically get all the
right stuff... for Eclipse... but it can't control what JVM you're getting.
Bottom line, the "Cannot find agent library...piAgent" message generally
comes from either (1) not being able to find libpiAgent.so... path
issues and the like, or (2) it finding it, but the JVM and the
libpiAgent.so being different "bit-ness".

Release note is at <

I'm stumped. I know we've had problems getting things working on
Ubuntu... something about libstdc++ compatibility needs, but I don't see
anything in the release note about that. Perhaps one of the other buys
(Bob? Samson?) can chime in now since I've been no help.
