Hi;

When I try to debug a tomcat instance started up remotely I get a “Failed to connect to remote JVM. Connection refused”.

I have set the JPDA environmental variables:

linux:/opt/tools/apache-tomcat-5.5.20/bin # echo $JPDA_ADDRESS
8000
linux:/opt/tools/apache-tomcat-5.5.20/bin # echo $JPDA_TRANSPORT
dt_socket
linux:/opt/tools/apache-tomcat-5.5.20/bin # ./startup.sh jpda
Using CATALINA_BASE:   /opt/tools/apache-tomcat-5.5.20
Using CATALINA_HOME:   /opt/tools/apache-tomcat-5.5.20
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /opt/tools/apache-tomcat-5.5.20/temp
Using JRE_HOME:       /opt/tools/jdk1.6.0/jre
linux:/opt/tools/apache-tomcat-5.5.20/bin #

And in myEclipse I am debugging with a remotely started application with the following settings:

host: localhost
port: 8000
Allow termination of remote JVM checked.

What am I missing?

Connection refused is a pretty classic response for computers protected by a firewall. Double check that you don’t have a firewall running on the machine with Tomcat on it. You might also just try any sort of connection to it (like port 8080) and see if that works.
