How do you run jvisualvm.exe under the local system account under Windows Server 2008?
I've been looking for a comparable approach as posted here for Windows Server 2003 for starting jvisualvm under system account. But I got the error: ...\jdk1.6.0_24\bin\jvisualvm.exe exited on ... with error code -1073741819. I found that jvisualvm is using a configuration file: ...\jdk1.6.0_24\lib\visualvm\etc\visualvm.conf This configuration file contains a default_userdir property that points to ${HOME}/... . The system account seems to have issues with ${HOME} . Changing this parameter and replace ${HOME} with C:/Temp makes the above mentioned solution available for Windows Server 2008 R2
