Remote debugging eclipse with tomcat
Its extremely basic -but I always miss a step or so and end up searching on google. So I though I will just Jot it down -more so for me!
- In bin/catalina.bat add following
set JPDA_OPTS=-agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,address=8000,server=y,suspend=n -
For starting tomcat, do not use startup.bat instead navigate to bin folder from command prompt and use following command to start tomcat
“catalina.bat jpda start” - If tomcat starts listening successfully -it should print a message as
“Listening for transport dt_socket at address: 8000” - select the project and click on debug->debug configurations Under “Remote Java application” -create a new configuration, and then enter
Host -> localhost
Port -> 8000 (same as given in address for JPDA_OPTS)
Next In eclipse,
All set ..eclipse should be able to connect to tomcat and debug points should be enabled in webapp

Starting tomcat 6 in debug mode
create a debug.bat file in bin directory of tomcat. Add following lines
@echo off
set JPDA_TRANSPORT=”dt_socket”
set JPDA_ADDRESS=”8000″
set JPDA_SUSPEND=”y”
Fire command:
catalina.bat jpda start
