Java remote debugging (JPDA) not working for me in Tomcat 9

Question

I\'m trying to remotely debug a Tomcat webapp on a recently upgraded Tomcat 9.0.13 and Open JDK 11.0.1. Server is Redhat Enterprise Linux 7.6 and I\'m using Eclipse on a Window

Answer 1

I had similar issue running Tomcat 9 in docker. I specified the JPDA_ADDRESS in the docker build to allow access from any host:

ENV JPDA_ADDRESS=8000 CMD ["catalina.sh", "jpda", "run"]
