Hello, I’m having problems with the jsps’ debug in WebSphere.
I try to put a interruption point and the execution doesn’t stop on it.
Eclipse is standig a window with “_jspService” tag and executes but no code is available.
I’m using Eclipse 3.0 with myEclipse 3.7M and WebSphere 5.1.
What must i do to be able to debug the jsps?
Thanks for your help.
What is the Build ID of Eclipse and MyEclipse that you are using? (Help > About), also what version of JDK are you using to launch Eclipse and websphere? Please use java -version to get the version info.
Eclipse
Version: 3.0.0
Build id: 200402122000MyEclipse
Version: 3.7.0
Build id: 20040305-3.7.0jdk
java version 1.4.2_04First and foremost I would encourage you to upgrade to Eclipse 3.0 GA + MyEclipse 3.8.1 + MyEclipse Hotfixes, this is going to be the most stable/robust setup for you. The M-build of Eclipse you are using was very buggy and besides a few ‘strange’ issues you might run into, you never know if things you are troubleshooting are bugs, or actual errors in the software.
Also, make sure you are using the IBM JDK that ships with WebSpehere to run it, you may also want to try and run Eclipse with the same JDK (eclipse.exe -vm c:\path\to\java.exe). The WebSpehere JDK is heavily modified and you likely aren’t going to have success running Websphere correctly without it. Also successful debugging seems to rely a lot on mostly compatible versions of JDK running the debugger (Eclipse) and running the server (Webspehere) which is why I suggest trying to use IBM’s JDK to run both, although it does sometimes work when they are different 1.4 VMs.
The real problem here is that we don’t support source level JSP debugging on WebSphere because IBM has their “own special” way of interacting with debuggers that is independent of the JSR-045 spec. For source-level JSP debugging on WebSphere, I believe *only* IBM’s WSAD does that.
As far as upgrading your environment, this won’t affect this issue. However, the toolset is much better but if you do choose to try out the latest version I’d suggest you do a parallel installation so you can “check it out” without risk of disrupting your current development work.
