I was not sure if you need to debug lua remotely or ask about doing so over HTTP; I'm answering about the former and am not aware of a way to do so over HTTP.

Decoda can do magic and do so for a lua VM without requiring any change to the VM; with LuaEdit you need to create the VM in a specific way, using a provided DLL or library.
