– Message Body ——————————-

Hi there.. I am new to MyEclipse. I was testing the software to see wat it all can do. I build a realy simple JSP page and I tried to debug it. I put breakmark on the only code I added to the standard template. The code was <% out.println(“Hello”); %> .

When the debugger was running instead of jumping to the breakline it started at the tag <base href=”<%=basePath%>”> . Strange, because there was no breakpoint there and no error. When i tried to step over it the following error occured from a service ‘page’: Source not found for JspServletWrapper.service(HttpServletRequest, HttpServletResponse, boolean) line: 359. When I tried to step further it gave a lot of that kinds of error’s. I couldn’t reach the code where the breakpoint was at.

Why doesn’t the debugger go to the breakpoint and why do i get error where there is simple html code.

Are you using Tomcat 5.0.14/16? There is a known bug that was fixed in it that will be out in the new release (whenever that may be).

[Maurice Zeijen]

Thanxs, then I will try an older version of Tomcat and hope that this wil resolve the problem.

[Riyad Kalla]

Don’t try too old of a version, Tomcat 4.x doesn’t support debugging (Doesn’t support required JSR)

There is also a workaround to the Tomcat 5.0.16 source mapping bug posted here:
