[17:21:12] Couldn't create the Java profiler, continuing without it

I don't know, maybe it's just best to catch all errors and treat them as "False" instead of failing the JavaProfiler completely. On the other hand, that might hide real errors. Well, keeping it this way for now.

What about changing it to return False and logging the error?
