Hi,

When I am using Vtune  as non root user to capture memory-consumption in linux OS (NAME="Rocky Linux"
VERSION="8.10 (Green Obsidian)"/ x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux)  I am getting the following error :
(application running  as non-root).

vtune -collect memory-consumption -target-process a.out -result-dir /opt/sdl/collect/

Intel(R) VTune(TM) Profiler 2025.0.1; 629235 experienced an unexpected error.

Please send a problem report:

sh: /tmp/amplxe-log-sdl/2025-03-07-09-02-02-960821.amplxe-feedback/qfagent.cmd: Permission denied

However, if I run the vtune as root user and application running as root no issue is observed. How can resolve this issue.

Thanx

Abhijit

'Permission denied' means current VTune permission is denied to attach and analyze the the target process. Is the target-process a.out  a system process? Or is it not the same user for VTune and the target process?
