**Kibana version** :  
7.17.8  
**Elasticsearch version** :  
7.17.8  
**APM Server version** :  
7.17.8  
**APM Agent language and version** :  
java 1.35.0

A message is displayed indicating that the Remote configuration is not available, But I can still view messages in kibana, except that the dependencies are not visible ,Refer to this [question](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/apm-the-java-agent-only-provides-the-request-information-to-the-apm-service-and-the-dependency-is-empty/322440/2)

This is my kibana logs

This is my project logs

My options set

```auto
-javaagent:"D:\path\to\apm-agent.jar"
-Delastic.apm.service_name=wetech_admin_server
-Delastic.apm.server_urls=http://123.123.123.123:8200
-Delastic.apm.environment=production
-Delastic.apm.disable_bootstrap_checks=true
-Delastic.apm.application_packages=tech.wetech.admin.WetechAdminApplication

```

Note that there is still a prompt if this option is not set  
`-Delastic.apm.disable_bootstrap_checks=true`

This is related to the ability to [centrally configure APM Agents through Kibana](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/8.5/agent-configuration.html) - when you are using a standalone deployment of the APM Server, there is an additional step required in order to unlock this feature, which is to [define a Kibana endpoint within your APM Server configuration](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/guide/current/setup-kibana-endpoint.html). If you don't want to do that and want these messages to go away, configure [`-Delastic.apm.central_config=false`](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/java/current/config-core.html#config-central-config).

> [@ntmxglrtayl03](#):

> Note that there is still a prompt if this option is not set  
> `-Delastic.apm.disable_bootstrap_checks=true`

The bootstrap checks have nothing to do with that

You should also fix your [`application_packages`](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/java/current/config-stacktrace.html#config-application-packages) configuration - it should contain a **root package** of your application code, not a single class.

In general, I strongly suggest that you thoroughly go over our [docs](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/java/current/index.html). They are quite good and may spare you a lot of trial-and-error time.

Good luck!
