Problem
Your New Relic Java agent is not generating log files.
Solution
Ensure your New Relic Java agent is configured to generate newrelic_agent.log files by checking the following:
New Relic's Java agent stores log files in the logs directory. The Java agent creates this directory in the same location used for the newrelic.jar in the -javaagent switch. If you cannot find newrelic_agent.log, ensure the JVM process has permissions to write to the logs directory.
Permissions management varies greatly by environment, so work with your system administrator to verify that this is not an issue. If permissions are not the issue, check that you did not customize the location of the logs directory.
팁
You can specify a different directory and name with the log_file_path and log_file_name settings.
Ensure that the YAML format in newrelic.yml is valid by using a YAML validator. This tool verifies that your YAML is valid. It also gives you an interpreted version uncluttered by comments.
If your YAML is not valid, use an editor that keeps spaces on lines, such as Sublime Text. This will help you make changes to your newrelic.yml with the correct number of spaces.
You can start up your app server so that it prints to the console. Here are some examples of where this is stored:
JBoss:
log/boot.logGlassfish:
domain-dir/logs/server.logTomcat:
catalina.out(if specified incatalina.sh) orcatalina.batWebLogic:
server_name.logWebObjects:
/var/log/webobjects.logWhen booting your JVM, verify that the generated logs show that the
newrelic.jarfile opened and that the Java agent interpreted thenewrelic.ymlconfiguration file. Failures to find either file or open them correctly will appear in the logs.Successfully loading the agent will look something like this:
