vtune with sudo access doesn't work

[mnt]

Hi,

When I launch vtune 2023.0.0 with sudo access, it gives the following error and the main window is not opened. Actually, I see a blank white page. With normal user, it is fine.

# /opt/intel/oneapi/vtune/latest/bin64/vtune-gui

Any idea about that?

Hi,

Thank you for posting in Intel communities.

 I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused. Dev team has been consistently working on this issue.

As an alternative approach you can use the VTune GUI.

Try loading the VTune Web Server Interface by running the following command and accessing the generated URL in a browser window

$ sudo <vtune-install-dir>/bin64/vtune-backend --allow-remote-ui

Eg.: $ sudo /opt/intel/oneapi/vtune/latest/bin64/vtune-backend --allow-remote-access

The first time you access this URL on your browser, you will be shown a warning regarding self-signed certificate since the website is loaded locally, kindly confirm and bypass this warning to access the VTune Web Server GUI.
