Did you set JAVA_OPTS correctly in the JBoss run batch file?
Avatar of chaitu chaitu

ASKER

set JAVA_OPTS=-Xdebug -Xnoagent -Djava.compiler=NONE -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,address=8787,server=y,suspend=n %JAVA_OPTS%
After running that, open another command window and do

telnet localhost 8787

and let me know what you get
telnet localhost 8787


nothing is there in console;but its running
If you didn't get

Could not open connection to the host, on port 8787: Connect failed

then check the Eclipse setting for the correct host and port on the remote debug options

jwdp port (here 8787) is not concurrent. Once you have a client connected to this port, other client would get connection refused. You need to make sure that eclipse debugger is the only application connecting to this port at a time.
If you're still having a problem, can you post the result of

netstat -an | find "8787"
TCP    127.0.0.1:3596         127.0.0.1:8787         ESTABLISHED
 TCP    127.0.0.1:8787         127.0.0.1:3596         ESTABLISHED

'already'=now
ok i will change port number and let u know
i changed port still same error

 TCP    0.0.0.0:7000           0.0.0.0:0              LISTENING
You remembered to change the port in Eclipse..?
host:localhost
post:7000

i think problem may be jdk????
I think you should shut down what's already apparently connected, debugging-wise
yes it worked;i thought when communication happened between jboss and eclipse no message is coming on the console saying debugger connected(it will come in jdeveloper);i thought same message will come in eclipse also;thats why i try to reconnect debug then i am getting that message;
where can i see the data  while debugging.
Did you switch to debug perspective and set breakpoints?
yes i am able to debug;how to set breakpoints in eclipse?;just double click in left side of the source code;
Yes
what r the advantages of using eclipse over other IDE
That's a bit of a general q isn't it? ;-#

It's free for one ...
i think jdeveloper is also free;performance wise will i find any difference?why eclipse is so popular over other IDE's??

Eclipse is open source and you have freedom to develop your plugins, and you will find a lot of open source plugins of eclipse
where can i jbosseclipseIDE plugin
just i downloaded one plugin and placed in C:\eclipse\plugins directory;its not effecting in the project;when i go see the C:\eclipse\plugins directory the contents of new plugin is not there;
:-)

Hope it's OK now
