Greetings.

I had originall thought -javaagent was broken under linux, but now seems to be version specific.

Please look at the following versions and outputs:

Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0-beta2-b51)

This version seems to work as I expected it to.

Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0-b64)

This version is broken

I downloaded the latest 5.0 Update 1

Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_01-b08)

This version is broken.

It seems the latter two version report this when I try to use -javaagent:Class.myClass
Error opening zip file: Class.myClass
Error occurred during initialization of VM
agent library failed to init: instrument

So, I'm stumped! Can someone enlighten me on if this syntax has changed, or the requirements, and what I need to do to get developing again!

Thanks,
