Hi, Not sure where I should post this, but I've just hit this bug with Java 8
java version "1.8.0_31" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_31-b13) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.31-b07, mixed mode) # update-alternatives --config java There is 1 choice for the alternative java (providing /usr/bin/java). Selection Path Priority Status ------------------------------------------------------------ 0 /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle/jre/bin/java 20012 auto mode * 1 /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle/jre/bin/java 20012 manual mode # uname -a Linux java-test-1 3.13.0-45-generic #74-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jan 13 19:36:28 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux I had to do the workaround (by creating the symlink) in order for VisualVM to see the data coming from the running JVM. I would be happy to move/report this issue if someone could suggest a more appropriate area to post in. Thank you. -=david=- -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1417962 Title: 6b34 regression: jps as root does not show classname anymore but instead 'process information unavailable' for processes running as non-root user To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openjdk-6/+bug/1417962/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
