but if I use the JMC and JFR provided with the jdk (8_162) itself it works like charme. It is also the same jdk I use for eclipse. The exception idicates that there is some kind of file access problem, so I tried different locations but nothing worked so far.
I also tried to use ...jmxremote.access.file with the roles explained in the documentation. But still within eclipse it didn't work.
Note: parameter I currently use
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote=true
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=3614
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false
All other questions I found so far didn't help me any further so other ideas?
Thanks
Christian

When you start a recording, the JVM writes a placeholder file where the recording will be written when it is finished.
FileWriter fw = new FileWriter("recording.jfr");
fw.close();
The OS is denying the user, the process owner of the Java application you are connecting to, permission to write to that directory. If no path is given, i.e. "recording.jfr", the file will typically end up in the directory where the process was started.

I have Tomcat v. 7.0.62 bundle with Liferay Portal 6.2 CE GA6 and IntelliJ Idea Ultimate 2017.1.
What can I do with this problem?
EDIT:
My run configuration in IntelliJ:

Change run configuration to war:exploded and try again. If isn't share your intellij run configuration. It seems its a problem with your code.

Error running an Apache Tomcat servlet written in Kotlin

When I click the Run green arrow button on the toolbar, or select the Run Tomcat 8.0.36 command from the Run menu in IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate in order to start my HTTP Servlet application that I wrote in Kotlin, it appears as though the server starts but is not able to load my application.
I say that because when I hit the url http://localhost:8080 or that of one of my servlets at http://localhost:8080/login, I see just a blank page.
Here is the relevant excerpt from the output from the Output window of IntelliJ when I click the Run button.

I am writing this answer for myself in case I forget again, and for the benefit of anyone else who faces this problem.
As Alexy Soshin alludes to the reason in the comments to this question, the Tomcat server wasn't able to reference the kotlin runtime libraries because they were missing from the project Artifacts.
To fix the problem, I selected the servlet project in the Project window, and right-clicked my mouse and selected Open Module Settings from the context menu.
Then in the Project Structure dialog, I selected Artifacts from the Project Settings section on the left, and added not just the kotlin runtime libraries but also all other libraries that my entire project was referencing.
Thankfully, I'd put them all in one place in the %PROJECTROOT%\lib folder that I'd created.
After doing this, when I clicked the Run button again, the server was able to load my servlet fine.

Upgrading Cassandra nodetool rebuild does not work

I have a cluster of 3 Cassandra nodes (2.0.9), and want to upgrade to 2.1.1. I have read the upgrade guide, but it has lots of steps. I thought an easier way was to terminate a node, relaunch one with Cassandra 2.1.1, and run nodetool rebuild on it. However, I got this error:
java.lang.RuntimeException: Error while rebuilding node: Stream failed

Is this because 2.0.9 and 2.1.1 are not compatible in data streaming? I checked this answer, which only says that MAJOR versions are incompatible. Is this also the case for minor versions? Thanks

Nodetool rebuild is used to bring up a new data center in an existing cluster, not for upgrading a node in a cluster: http://www.datastax.com/documentation/cassandra/2.1/cassandra/operations/ops_add_dc_to_cluster_t.html
