"Fetching children of data collector" task hangs [message #135394]

Originally posted by: torbjorn.ghostwriter.no

When opening the "Profile Configurations" dialog, a task called "Fetching
children of data collector" task starts and never stops. It says its
"filtering data collectors" at 0%. The contents of the "Monitor" tab is
constantly "Pending..."

I've uninstalled the TPTP plugins and started eclipse with -clean, but
nothing seems to help. Is there something I can do to fix this, or should I
file a bug?

I've installed the following TPTP plugins (using P2):
Log and Trace Analyzer
Monitoring Tools Project
Platform Project
Reporting with BIRT

Which version of Eclipse and TPTP are you using? On what operating system?

Hi,

I have exactly the same problem: I just downloaded a fresh version of
"Eclipse for java developer" + software update to get all the TPTP plugins
into "test and profile".

I'm on linux mandriva 2006.

Another clue: while it's "fetching...", after a few minutes, I have the
following error in the terminal from which I launched eclipse:

Exception in thread
"org.eclipse.hyades.execution.core.task.ReusableThread@837986"
java.lang.NullPointerException

org.eclipse.hyades.execution.local.util.AgentControllerDescr iptor.versionIsAtLeast(AgentControllerDescriptor.java:67)

Thanks a lot for your help,

OK, it's pretty weird: I didn't touched to my eclipse since yesterday
(just maybe close and reopen it), but now TPTP is working fine !
It's not pending anymore, monitors are listed within a few seconds.

I'm sorry, but I have no explanation: no install, nothing... ?!

Maybe a conflict with another (sleeping, zombi,...) process ?...

Eclipse 3.4 and TPTP 4.5 require Java 1.5 or later. Make sure to launch
Eclipse with an 1.5 (or later) JVM.

HTH,

I have the same problem. I'm on Ubuntu 8.10 with a fresh install of
Eclipse 3.4.1. I used the software update to install TPTP.

Hi,

Please try the following: (Assuming you are doing local profile)
- Close Eclipse workbench
- Check in Task Manager to ensure there is no dangling eclipse.exe, java.exe
and ACServer.exe running no the machine.
- Restart Eclipse workbench with a fresh workbench
- Go to Windows > Preferences > Agent Controller > Host, select "localhost"
and Test Connection, make sure the AC is connected with no problem.
- Open a Profile Launch Configuration and try fetch the agent again.

Hi Samira,

Glad to know it is working now.
The problem could be a dangling AC (Intergrated Agent Controller) process
which maybe the result of an abnormal shutdown of either a Profiling Agent
or the Eclipse workbench.

I'm experiencing this problem as well, and the solution above didn't work. I'm running TPTP all-in-one 4.7.1a on Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid). Like everyone else has said, the "Fetching children of data collector" task starts and never stops and a bunch of NullPointerExceptions get printed out to console.

any help would be appreciated.

thanks

Local profiling works but remote profiling doesnt.
Keep getting the same message and cant proceed.

Fetching children of data collector (16%)

Server on Linux
Eclipse on Windows XP
Java 1.6
TPTP Profile on Server Version: 4.5.1

Any help is much appreciated.

Just uncheck the check box "Contact all update sites during install to find required software" in the "install new software" dialog.
