unable to set ‑Dmetric.http.listener=true on machineagent startup on version 4.2.12.1

[Srinivasan.Krishnan]

Hello

I am trying to publish external metrics into appd via HTTP listener as described here on appd version

4.2.12.1

https://docs.appdynamics.com/display/PRO43/Standalone+Machine+Agent+HTTP+Listener

I am trying to add ‑Dmetric.http.listener=true as part of machine agent startup like this

/opt/appd/current/machineagent/jre/bin/java -Xmx256m -Xms128m ‑Dmetric.http.listener=true ..

-jar /opt/appd/current/machineagent/machineagent.jar

and i get this error

Error: Could not find or load main class ‑Dmetric.http.listener=true

Help please

you mean, the below command is not working?

/opt/appd/current/machineagent/jre/bin/java -Xmx256m -Xms128m ‑Dmetric.http.listener=true -jar /opt/appd/current/machineagent/machineagent.jar
