[lttng-dev] problem running/installing lttng on ubuntu 16.04

[Noam Cohen]

Hello
I installed lttng on my ubuntu, and tried the "getting Started".


I ran the helloWorld, and then
$ lttng list --userspace
Error: Unable to list UST events: No session daemon is available
Error: Command error

Waited a minute and retried, and now the output was as expected.
$ lttng list --userspace
UST events:
-------------

PID: 17386 - Name: ./hello
      lttng_ust_tracelog:TRACE_DEBUG (loglevel: TRACE_DEBUG (14)) (type:
tracepoint)
      < SNIP >
      hello_world:my_first_tracepoint (loglevel: TRACE_DEBUG_LINE (13))
(type: tracepoint)

**Is it normal behavior?*


Then,
$ lttng create
Session auto-20160817-132123 created.
Traces will be written in /home/noam/lttng-traces/auto-20160817-132123
noam at noam-nuc:~/tmp/lttng$ lttng enable-event --userspace
hello_world:my_first_tracepoint
Error: Event hello_world:my_first_tracepoint: UST create channel failed
(channel channel0, session auto-20160817-132123)

How do I solve it?
