I am running a project in tomcat. When I place breakpoints and hit them, the debugger prespective starts. The problem is that the debuger does not take me to the line where execution is taking place. I find myself having to open files and follow the thread execution to know where the debugger is. That slows me down and makes the process very difficult and time consuming. Any suggestions?

Khalid,
Try shutting down Tomcat and restarting MyEclipse using the -clean command line argument. Then remove your deployment, rebuild your project (Project > Clean) and recreate your deployment.

Try and work all the gremlins out of the system.

Riyad,

that did not solve the problem. Every time I go to debug mode, the code is out of focus and still can not walk through the code. Any other suggestions?

Well, I reinstalled eclipse and myeclipse and that seems to fix the problem.

Khalid,
I’m glad to hear it’s working now, sorry for the delay, I had asked one of the developers to have a look at this thread if he knew a reason why this would be happening.

Hi,

I am having this problem as well. It only seems to be for one project in my workspace. I have uninstalled myeclipse and it is still there. Have tried removing and re-adding project, restarting with the -clean flag etc.

Any ideas as I don’t really want to reinstall eclipse?

Thanks,
Nick

Nick,
The fix might be a clean workspace. There should be invalid plugin state stored in the workspace causing the pluin to act strangely. If you export your settings using File > Export > Preferences, then create a new workspace with (File > Switch Workspace, and point to a new dir that doesn’t exist and hit OK), now import your preferences AND your problomatic project, does it work now?

Nope, same problem. I thought that was going to fix it as well.

It’s strange that it is only one project?

Thanks for your help
