Machindra,   The facility to allow OpenTelemetry traces to be imported into AppDynamics is currently under development (I am product manager for this effort)   It would be extremely useful for me to have additional context around your request, please can you tell me (either via the IDEA thread, or in a direct message if you prefer)   1. What is the application that produces traces and metrics?  It it home-grown or some 3rd party product? 2. What use cases do you want to enable by ingesting trace data?   2a. Monitoring & Alerting on application response time   2b. Troubleshooting application behaviour based on analysis of traces   2c. Other (please give details) 3. What is the relative importance of these use cases to you? 4. Does the application that produces traces communicate with applications or systems that you already have instrumented with ApDynamics agents?  What are these systems?  Would you value end to end troubleshooting?   Warm regards, Peter     ...

Ahmed,   Transaction analytics does not sample data gathered by MIDCs, but should collect a value for every invocation.   Things to check: Are you sure that the method your MIDC is placed on is called for absolutely every transaction invocation? Do you see any messages in the agent log indicating there may be problems collecting the data? For troubleshooting beyond that, I would advise you to work with customer support via a help ticket.   Warm regards, Peter ... View more

Gabor,   My bad, I missed the local-to-the-try-catch-block constructed Transaction object when I looked at your code.   From your latest comments, it sounds as if this is working as expected.  The 1st time your entry is called within a new process, the BT will register with the controller.  Once that is done, subsequent invocations handled in the same process will be measured, and as those measurements are reported by the agent (once per minute) the data will become visible in the controller.   I suspect you eventually amassed enough post-registration invocations and elapsed time for that to happen.   Warm regards, Peter ...

Hm, OK.   Your code does. not show you calling endTransaction, but you do mention that in the subject.   Are you certain your code is calling endTransaction?   Also, how many times in the transaction you have instrumented being executed?   Do you see it referenced if you remove the (default) filter for Transactions with performance data?       ...

2 thing to check: Are there any error or informational messages written in the agent log? Have you hit the node or application level BT limit? Warm regards, Peter ... View more

The issue here is that "feed" is a valid hexadecimal number...   If you're sure that your application never needs to interpret 'feed' as anything other than the word feed, you should be able to manage this situation with rule priorities.   The higher priority rule should match "ends with hendelser/feed" and the lower priority one should be your regex match.   That way, exact feed matches will never hit the second rule.   The documentation shows you how to set rule priorites.   Warm regards, Peter     ...

Do you have any output at all from the glassfish startup?   When you say " the agent  /opt/appdynamics/appagent/javaagent .jar is unzipped inside the container where glassfish is running" do you mean that the only file in the container is javaagent.jar?  If so, that is the root cause of your issue.  You need the entire agent directory structure as contained in the agent zip for the agent to function. ...
