I'm trying to use the collector with a small program that I've created (just for testing). The following occurs:

VTune Performance Analyzer 1.0 for Linux*

The program contains symbol information (was compiled using 'g++ -g'). I've tried it multiple times with some different tests, and it all failed.

Any idea?

Hello,

"Module Resolution" feature is available under the the "Edit Menu". This could help.

Also if you could attach the test program, we could help in much more detail.

You are running "vtl" - the command line interface for VTune, aren't you?

Your problems look like some components that make symbol resolution are malfunctioning.

There may be a plenty of reasons for this. Let's start from the easiest - problems with installation.

please try simple test like:
vtl activity -c callgraph -app /bin/ls -moi /bin/ls

If there are still problems with this test, please try to reinstall VTune.

Please look for errors and warnings(if any) during the installation. Looking forward for your answer. If this does not helps we should investigate more opportunities.

Thank you
Daniel

Thank you for your responses. The problem was finally solved, thanks to some phone assistance. The problem was that the data directory did not have the correct permissions.
