Using 64-bit Windows 7 Enterprise, according to YourKit docs:

To check that Java can load the profiler agent, invoke the following command that prints a description of agent parameters:

java -agentpath:<full agent library path>=help

Why am I encountering this error, if the library definitely exists?

Error occurred during initialization of VM

Could not find agent library in absolute path: "full agent library path"

Please pay attention of JVM and profiler agent bitness. It is quite possible that you are using 64-bit agent for 32-bit Java or vice versa.

  • You are quite right, I was mistakenly assuming that the JRE installed on my Windows7 machine would be 64 bit. In fact it was 32 bit. – Niel de Wet Jan 27 '15 at 09:53
