14.1 Target connection issues
Each of the error messages provided by Streamline on a connection failure indicates a different 
issue:
Symptom  You receive the following error message: 
Unable to connect to the gator daemon 
at your_target_address. Please verify you have installed the gator daemon on 
your target and it is running. Installation instructions can be found in: 
.../README_Streamline.txt
Solutions: Make sure the gator daemon is running on your target. Enter the 
following command in the shell of your target:
ps -d | grep gatord
If this command returns no results, 
gatord
 is not active. Start it by navigating to 
the directory that contains 
gatord
 and entering the following command:
sudo ./gatord &
Try connecting to the target again.
If 
gatord
 is active and you still receive this error message, try disabling any 
firewalls on your host machine that might be interfering with communication 
between it and the target.
Symptom  You receive the following error message: 
Unknown host
Solution: Make sure that you have correctly entered the name or IP address of the 
target in Address field. If you have entered a name, try an IP address instead.
Symptom  You receive the following error message: 
Unable to launch. Only one instance 
of Streamline may be running on this machine. Please close all instances of 
Eclipse and try again.
Solution: Stop any other running Streamline session and try connecting to the 
target again. If you cannot find another session, try closing Eclipse for DS-5, then 
re-starting it.
Symptom  When using event-based sampling, Streamline fails to find the PMU.
Solution:The PMU on your hardware might not be correctly configured to allow 
the processor interrupts necessary for for Streamline to use event-based sampling. 
Test on alternate hardware or disable event-based sampling in the counter 
configuration dialog box.
