Debug error "Failed to connect to remote VM"

[Former Member]

Hi experts

i've the following message when i try to run debug in sts:

"Failed to connect to remote VM. Connection refused. Connection refused: connect"

i saw that port 8000 is not open, even if in project.properties there's the correct property: tomcat.debugjavaoptions=-Xdebug -Xnoagent -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,address=8000,suspend=n

does anyone has some idea?this's very urgent because now i'm not able to debug.

Thanks for your precious help Marco

i've no process running in this machine, port 8001 are closed.. i can't really understand what is going on

[manjeesh86]

Try with 8005 port tomcat.debugjavaoptions=-Xdebug -Xnoagent -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,address=8005,suspend=n -Xverify:none -DforceANSI=true

I had same issue and found another process running in machine on port 8000 and 8001 (Windows: netstat -a). I switched to 8005 and its working.
tomcat.debugjavaoptions=-Xdebug -Xnoagent -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,address=8005,suspend=n -Xverify:none -DforceANSI=true

Try it.

When the server start, do you see

Listening for transport dt_socket at address: 8000

[Former Member]

no...i don't have this text

You won't be able to connect the debugger if you don't see this line.

So either your tomcat.debugjavaoptions is overrriden by conf when the server startup or you don't start in debug mode

[Former Member]

The config line is good. So I suggest, check in the hac if the tomcat.debugjavaoptions and the tomcat.development.mode is set

HI jean-luc

In hac: tomcat.debugjavaoptions = -Xdebug -Xnoagent -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,address=8000,suspend=n

tomcat.development.mode=true

looks like are set.

Where you able to connect to debug before or you never have?

My Intellij config if that helps

[Former Member]

no, i was never able to run dubug in this machine....i was able in another one, i can't really understand what is wrong

[Former Member]

Maybe the port 8000 is already used by another program on your machine.

Either that or try to turn off the firewall and restart the hybris. The config looks good

[Former Member]

Are you starting your hybris server in debug mode?

 ./hybrisserver.sh debug

Hi Michael

Yes, i'm starting hybris with: hybrisserver.bat debug
