I am working thru the Application Deployment and Server Mgmt Quickstart and started Tomcat5 from within eclipse my project with one jsp file to deploy successfully.
— I have tomcat connector in debug mode —
— I restarted Tomcat —
It seems like we need an extra step ( 7.15 ) to direct how to launch the new application in debug mode, because it seems like I’m missing a step..
Here is what I have tried:
myTestProject –> debug –> debug as… MyEclipse Externally Launched Server = debug button greyed out
myTestProject –> debug –> debug as… MyEclipse Externally Launched Server -> new -> change port to 8080 = failed to connect to remote VM connection timed out

as asked, here is my config info:

I think you are making this more complex than it needs to be. If all you are trying to do is debug, just launch tomcat and set break points then access your webpage with your browser to make the break points get hit. When MyEclipse starts your app server for you, it automatically connects the debugger to it.

thanks. I was making it more complex. It is clear now. Thank you
