[lttng-dev] lttng-ust works

[Manikandan Govindaswamy]

I tried with Davids instruction and the logs are attached. Still the trace files are not generated for the easy-ust example.

I tried both --verboseconsumer and --consumerd64-path options for running the lttng-sessiond and the relevant logs are attached.

Please let me know if something is wrong that breaks creating the traces on root user.

Regards,
GMK

Normal if your user is not part of the "tracing" group.

There is no reason why you shouldn't be able to generate userspace
traces as root. Let us know what happens when following David's
instructions.
