This usually point toward an older version of the agent.properties file being loaded. To troubleshoot issue make sure the latest version is being used. there have been changes from some of the agent.props settings in certain version upgrades. That's the fist thing I'd check

[mhessick]

It's a fresh installation from this file :

hyperic-hqee-agent-4.5.1-ppc-aix.tar.gz



System has never had any hyperic agent or server installed previously, so unless what has been included in this archive is simply wrong, we need to look at something else.

I am having similair problems when running my plug-in stand alone. Is there away to specificity tell Hyperic witch agent.property file to use from the command line
