How to Setup Netbeans Profiler for Payara server deployed in remote windows host?

[shrestha-mausam]

These are the instructions from Netbeans 16 when I try to setup a remote profiling for Manually Started remote Java Process.

Step 1: Make sure the target application is configured to run using Java 6+. Click to update steps for profiling JDK 5 applications. My web application is deployed on Payara Community edition 5 server based on JDK 11

Step 2: If you have not done it before create a Remote profiling pack for the selected OS & JVM and upload it to the remote system. Remote profiling pack root directory will be referred to as < remote > . I have created a remote profiling pack from netbeans and copied the files over to the remote host system

Step 3: If you have not run profiling on the remote system yet, run the \bin\calibrate.bat script first to calibrate the profiler. I ran this script although I did not have indication it ran correctly, a windows just popped and closed very fast. I am taking that as a sign that this script ran, please let me know if this is not correct

Step 4: Add the following parameter(s) to the application startup script (copy to clipboard):

-agentpath:\lib\deployed\jdk16\windows-amd64\profilerinterface.dll=\lib,5140

This is the part I am not sure about. I have copied this line and inserted it as a < jvm-option /> in the domain.xml file for my payara server domain, after which the server starts but I now cannot access any applications or the admin console. I also set this value in the asadmin.bat script but this also does not seem to do anything. Because When I connect the profiler I do not see any indication in the Netbeans telemetry window or the objects windows about any statistics about the JVM

Step 5: Start the target application. The process will wait for the profiler to connect. I assume this just means to start the payara server

Step 6: Submit this dialog and click the Attach button to connect to the target application and resume its execution. Nothing happens when I click on the attach button

I have looked up tutorials for setting up Netbeans profiler for remote host but could not find any strong thorough reference. If someone could explain how to set it up,what am I doing wrong or could point me to some potential resources I would really appreciate it.
