Hi, I want to debug servlets running under Tomcat 5.5.20 (freshly installed) on Windows XP, but I can't get the JVM to open the debug port in order that Eclipse can attach to it (as verified by running "netstat -a").
It seems to me that the documentation on how to enable debugging is outdated: - the FAQ "How do I debug a Tomcat application?" tells me to modify 2 environment variables JPDA_ADDRESS and JPDA_TRANSPORT, and then to start Tomcat via the catalina.bat script - but this script isn't supplied with the installation anymore. I added the environment variables anyway and restarted the service, but that didn't help. Starting the service as a console application didn't help either, btw.. - I tried adding "-Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:transport= dt_socket,address=1044,server=y,suspend=n" to the Java Options in the Monitor application tomcat5w.exe, but that didn't change anything. - the "Windows service HOW-TO" gives no specific hint on how to enable debugging. Fiddling with different parameters without knowning what the correct default parameters are doesn't look very promising... Now I'm running out of ideas - any help will be greatly appreciated !
