Running Tomcat in Debug Mode on Windows 7
I want to run TomCat in debug mode so I can debug my servlet from Eclipse.
I installed TomCat 7 using the Windows Installer. It was installed as a
service, managed by the Commons Daemon Service Manager. It runs servlets
fine (i.e., no problems with normal TC operation).
I did the following:
1. Added "jpda start" as Arguments in the Startup tab in the Daemon Service
Manager.
2. Created a custom Debug Configuration in Eclipse (Java EE version, Juno
Service Release 1) with:
Connection Type: Standard (Socket Attach)
Host: localhost
Port: 8000
Allow termination of remote VM: unchecked
When I run this Debug Configuration I get "cannot connect to JVM,
connection refused".
In the Tomcat log file I see:
loading jvm 'C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\client\jvm.dll'
[2013-02-07 08:13:13] [debug] ( javajni.c:660 ) Jvm Option[0]

Any help would be appreciated. And yes, I have spent several hours googling
this issue but can't find a solution.

Thanks for your help, Dan. I re-did the steps I listed and it worked.

There's not much more to it than that. If Tomcat is not starting, it's likely because the JVM didn't like the arguments added.
I would suggest this to debug further..
1.) Make sure Tomcat is stopped.
2.) Delete all of the files in the "logs" directory.
3.) Try starting Tomcat.
4.) Look at the logs directory and see what you get. Try to include as much as possible of the output here.

Re: Running Tomcat in Debug Mode on Windows 7
Posted by Quentin Spencer <qs...@gmail.com>.
Thank you Dan, I did see that FAQ and bullet. I tried adding the
lines"-Xdebug
-Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,address=8000,server=y,suspend=n" to the Java
Options box in the Java tab of the Common Daemon Service manager but Tomcat
wouldn't start after I did this. If someone could give me more detailed
instructions on how to implement the instructions in that document I would
really appreciate it.

This is not right. See the second bullet point listed here for the correct instructions.
