JVMTI, huh? Are you using Java 1.5 (aka 5.0)? Are you using the latest
release? The JVMTI is fairly new, so if you've got an old virtual
machine, that may be the problem.

Well, all I did was installing a JDK (jdk1.5.0_01) from Sun and hoped things
would fit together.
java -version gives me:
java version "1.5.0_01"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_01-b08)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_01-b08, mixed mode)
