Nsight compute failed to profile GPU data

here, I meet two problems, for quickstart, I can not attach any process for remote machine, why ? when I just set Application Executable, click Launch, then report error as follows: The profiler returned an error code: 103, what’s the reason

Hi,

You will need a root authority to enable profiler.
Have you login the device with root?

Thanks.

I encounter the same problem. I run nsight compute 2019.5.0 in ubuntu 18.04 virtual machine. In my case (see below figure), it tries to retrieve a non-existing report (I checked /tmp/var in my jetson agx xavier) because the program to be profiled fails to be launched.

My question is how to login the device with root? My account has root privileges only with sudo.

Solved by modifying PermitRootLogin in /etc/ssh/sshd_config. Thanks to linuxdev 's answer.
