visualvm Local java applications cannot be monitored

It used to be a bug, happened to me on windows 7.

Solution can be found in the internet and is simple.

Close all your java servers/applications eclipse etc.
Go to your \users\yourusernamedir\AppData\Local\Temp\hsperfdata_yourusernamedir
And delete this directory.

For me it worked.

      Recreate the directory hsperfdata_yourusernamedir from where you deleted. Please note this is case sensitive, so make sure user name is typed exactly how it is. After that right click on the dir, select properties and uncheck read - only property. Then start your java app and the VisulaVM. That worked for me.

    Thx this helped. I faced this issue after I set my PATH and eclipse config to jdk instead of the JRE I also had installed.
