[AGENT++] Agent++ linyx initialization problem...

[Frank Fock]

Fedja,

is it possible that your agent reports an  "ERROR_LOG | 0" message?
AGENT++'s default logger shutsdown the agent if such a log message
occurs. The second parameter, by the way, is the log level/priority.
Lower numbers should indicate higher severity/importance.

Best regards,
Frank
