Raja,

I see you’re using JDK 1.5 to launch Tomcat. Are you using the same JDK to launch Eclipse or a different one? The easiest way to check is with Help > About Eclipse SDK > Configuration Details. The JDK should be listed near the top.

Also, are you running any sort of firewall or internet privacy software? Those things get in the way of the socket communications that the Eclipse debugger has to set up with the Tomcat VM and will result in errors precisely as you describe here. Some third-party hardware / software getting in the way of the debug connection is my bet at this point.

Raja,
How do you have Tomcat 5 configured under Window > Prefs > MyEclipse > App Servers > Tomcat 5? Also do you have any additional settings under Paths or JDK? Any optional JDK parameters?

[Raja krishnan]

Hi Scott/Rkalla,
Scott yes i am using Firewall(both Nortan internet security / Windows firewall with XP) but i am able to run Tomcat as a service and test with IE (http://localhost:8080).I am having only the JDK mentioned above in my PC and do not have any other version.I am having trouble only through Eclipse .Previous version of MYEclipse 3.8.4 was connection ok.

Kalla,
I do not have any additional JDK parameters or additional Paths configured for Tomcat.I am taking all default setting except of the Tomcat Directory Path.

Hi Scott,
You are Right My Nortan Firewall 2004 is not allowing MyEclipseIDE to start Tomcat .If i disable Firewall i am able to start Tomcat from the Laptop..Sorry for the trouble..By any chance you guys know how to configure Nortan to allow Eclipse to start tomcat from IDE.

[Riyad Kalla]

Sorry Raja, I don’t have any experience with Norton’s utils (although they are popular enough I imagine a tutorial from Google shouldn’t be too hard to find).
