Bug Fixes
Fix edge case in RUM auto instrumentation where X-UA-Compatible meta tag is present but
</head>
tag is missing.There is a somewhat obscure edge case where RUM auto instrumentation will crash a request. The issue seems to be triggered when the X-UA-Compatible meta tag is present and the
</head>
tag is missing.Fixed reference to
@service.request_timeout
to@request_timeout in new_relic_service.rb
. (Thanks to Matthew Savage)When a timeout occurred during connection to the collector an "undefined method
request_timeout for nil:NilClass
" would get raised.preserve visibility on traced methods.
Aliased methods now have the same visibility as the original traced method. A couple of the esoteric methods created in the process weren't getting the visibility set properly.
Agent service does not connect to directed shard collector after connecting to proxy
After connecting to collector proxy name of real collector was updated, but ip address was not being updated causing connections to go to the proxy. Agent now looks up ip address for real collector.

If the agent received corrupted data from the Reqsue worker child agent it could crash the agent itself. fixed.

New Feature(s)
- Major refactor of data transmission mechanism. This enabled child processes to send data to parent processes, which then send the data to the New Relic service. This should only affect Resque users, dramatically improving their experience.
Bug Fixes
- Resolve issue with configuring the Error Collector when using server-side configuration.
Changes
- Moved Resque instrumentation from rpm_contrib to main agent. Resque users should discontinue use of rpm_contrib or upgrade to 2.1.11.
