HI, I'm trying to setup an APM Agent for a java applicaiton ( Spring 5, Webflux ).
I got this message when staring an application with apm java agent.

Hi, and thanks for trying out our APM solution.
I found this bug report that seems very similar- looks like your Java version has some problem with some specific ASM instrumentation.
If you want to look further into this, here are few things I can suggest trying:

  1. Try upgrade the java version (even stay with 8, but take the latest)
  2. Configure the agent to DEBUG logging level. Not only it may provide us with more info, but it will enforce some additional bytecode inspection on instrumented classes.
  3. Try disabling specific parts of the instrumentation through this configuration and see if it is only related to a specific part. For example- disable half and see if problem is resolved, then narrow down. If there is a specific instrumentation label that causes that- we will be glad to know.

In any case, it says

An error report file with more information is saved as:
/home/hs_err_pid1043.log

Try to find such error report and attach.

Thanks,
Eyal

Also note that we don't have auto-instrumentation for Spring WebFlux yet.
