[lttng-dev] Lttng start failed

[Pavan Anumula]

Hi Mathue,

Thanks for the quick reply,

After inserting lttng modules , I had given the command  "arm-none-linux-gnueabi-lttng-sessiond -vvv"  as you said, Below is the output where there are error messages. Please help me in resolving the issue, SO that I can catch kernel and user traces.

I think you should look into the lttng-sessiond --help :

      --consumerd32-path PATH     Specify path for the 32-bit UST consumer daemon binary
      --consumerd32-libdir PATH   Specify path for the 32-bit UST consumer daemon libraries
      --consumerd64-path PATH     Specify path for the 64-bit UST consumer daemon binary
      --consumerd64-libdir PATH   Specify path for the 64-bit UST consumer daemon libraries

options. My guess is that lttng-sessiond is not able to find the consumerd binary files, maybe due to a rename or because they have been moved after install.

One more thing that might help is to launch the lttng-sessiond with "-vvv" : it will provide verbose output and let us know where things fall apart.

Thanks,

Mathieu
