I am trying to monitor a remote process using jconsole and this was the command I used

jconsole -debug localhost:4080

And this is the stack trace that I get

java.rmi.ConnectIOException: error during JRMP connection establishment; nested exception is: 
    java.io.EOFException
    at sun.rmi.transport.tcp.TCPChannel.createConnection(TCPChannel.java:286)
    at sun.rmi.transport.tcp.TCPChannel.newConnection(TCPChannel.java:184)

Caused by: java.io.EOFException
    at java.io.DataInputStream.readByte(DataInputStream.java:250)
    at sun.rmi.transport.tcp.TCPChannel.createConnection(TCPChannel.java:228)

It is able to attach successfully if I supply the pid of the process to jconsole.

We have to configure tomcat to allow a remote process to connect to it to monitor

Essentially added,

CATALINA_OPTS="-Djava.awt.headless=true -Xmx128M -server -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=7091 -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false"

This would tell tomcat that it would monitored from (say) jconsole through port 7091 remotely.

Then started jconsole with 

jconsole localhost:7091

Now jconsole connects successfully.
