Hello, actually 'lttng create --output dir session_name' should at least create an empty directory with the chosen name. First of all try not to choose an already existing directory so you can check whether it is created or not.
Anyway, i just noticed a problem with relative paths: (~)> lttng LTTng Trace Control 2.0.0-rc2 (~)> lttng create --output traces session Error: Create directory failed (~)> lttng create --output ./traces session Error: Create directory failed (~)> lttng create --output /root/traces session Session session created. Traces will be written in /root/traces Is this expected?
