**Kibana version** : 8.8.1

**Elasticsearch version** : 8.8.1

**APM Server version** : 8.8.1

**APM Agent language and version** : Using NodeJS agent for Meteor App

**Description of the problem including expected versus actual behavior. Please include screenshots (if relevant)**:

We are trying to integrate elastic-apm with meteor app but seems like there are multiple issues with it.  
I have already checked [previous discussion on meteor](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/elastic-apm-for-meteor-js/186669/2) with plugin [meteor-elastic-apm](https://github.com/kschingiz/meteor-elastic-apm/) but I dont think its compatible with Meteor 2.8 version.

I have removed plugin from my application and just added nodeJs elastic agent, but when I try to create transaction manually inside Meteor Method, it creates traceId but eventually it crashes. Below are few debug and crash logs

=> Exited with code: 1

```

This is my code to start transaction

```auto
Meteor.methods({
  getAllFarm() {
      this.unblock();
      const trans = apm.startTransaction(`Get-farm`, 'internal');
      console.log(`get all farms`);
      console.log(`current transaction is ${apm.currentTransaction}`);
      const user = Meteor.user();
      // Some code 
      if (trans) trans.end();
    }
})

```

Please note by default there is no transaction created as its not HTTP call and it works via pub/sub mechanism.  
Also with [meteor-elastic-apm](https://github.com/kschingiz/meteor-elastic-apm/) plugin it was giving me same error.

Any help is appreciated to fix this issue 🙂

Hi @Kesha_Shah

That missing symbol is not from the nodejs agent so probably the instrumentation is involved. Thanks for the log and the code snippet but I'm not familiar with the framework and I need some extra info:

- which method did you use for instrumentation. Take a look at [this page](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/nodejs/3.x/starting-the-agent.html) for reference
- could you provide a small repro of the issue? You can create a PR to [this todo App](https://github.com/david-luna/elastic-nodejs-agent-meteor) to add the changes that lead to this error.

Cheers!

@Kesha_Shah If you are still hitting this, what version of Node.js are you using?

Your stack trace looks like this core Node.js issue:

I believe that was resolved in Node.js 14.8.0.
