IntelliJ Remote Debugging

[aweissman]

I'm having trouble debugging JBoss with IntelliJ. I can socket connect fine, and sometimes the debugger catches my breakpoints, but sometimes it doesn't. Either way, Jboss starts going REALLY REALLY slow, much slower than it does when I debug with Forte.

Has Anyone gotten it to work successfully? Has anyone had these same issues?

Thanks!

I use Intellij. I seem to remember that I had the same troubles as you at first, but they cleared up when I got the latest version of Intellij. Since then there have been no problems. But I have lots of memory and a fast machine, as well.

what version of jboss do you run? do you run it with tomcat?

I'm on a pIII 1ghz / 1 gig ram. Sometimes when i 'step over' it crashes jboss ( this started happening today ).

Thanks again!

Win2000, ~1.7Ghz, 1Gig Rma
Intelij 2.5.1
JBoss-2.4.4/Tomcat-4.0.1

I am now remembering that the the problem seemed to also clear up when I went from running JBoss and Tomcat in separate JVM to running them in same JVM.
