I get this Stacktrace when trying to take a heap dump from a running Java process. What causes this and what do I have to do to make a proper heap dump?

Environment: CentOS 64 bit, Java OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_31-b13) OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.31-b07, mixed mode)
Usign ps to see the java version that is used:
/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk-1.8.0.31-1.b13.el6_6.x86_64/jre/bin/java
My first try was:
/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk-1.8.0.31-1.b13.el6_6.x86_64/bin/jmap -dump:format=b,file=dump.bin 14984
That got me :
14984: Unable to open socket file: target process not responding or HotSpot VM not loaded
The -F option can be used when the target process is not responding
So I ran with the -F option
/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk-1.8.0.31-1.b13.el6_6.x86_64/bin/jmap -F -dump:format=b,file=dump.bin 14984

Ok, I found it.
I was running the jmap command as root, but I had to run as the user that started the java process.
In my case:
sudo -u robau ./jmap -dump:format=b,file=/tmp/dump.bin 14984
Seems to be related to this JDK bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8075773

I ran into the same issue with trying to run jmap on an AWS ElasticBeanstalk instance. The command that fixed it was
sudo debuginfo-install java-1.8.0-openjdk-devel
BTW, jmap was installed on the AWS ElasticBeanstalk instance with command
sudo yum install java-1.8.0-openjdk-devel-1.8.0.91-0.b14.10.amzn1.x86_64
回答3:
I had this issue on CentOS even when running as the user that started the process. What solved it for me was installing the debuginfo package corresponding to the package supplying the jmap utility.
To install the debuginfo package, see this answer (substituting your java package for glibc). It requires getting/using the debuginfo-install utility, and making sure the CentOS-Debuginfo.repo is set up correctly and enabled.

On Ubuntu, I resolved this issue by installing the openjdk-dbg package:
sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-dbg
I now suspect that this resolved my issue indirectly by upgrading the jdk to a version that corrected the bug. You might be able to resolve this issue with:
sudo apt-get install openjdk-8
Note: After java is upgraded, you must restart the java process in order to get a proper dump. If you don't, you will get something like this:
