How to debug in local eclipse when server is in another box? [message #1865541]

I have provided the appropriate details (IP address and port number) of the server where my application is running in the Remote Java Application columns. However, my eclipse is installed in my local. When I'm trying to start debug mode, it says VM refused to connect. Is there anyway to resolve this issue?

For reference -
My local IP where eclipse is installed is 10.x.x.29
The server IP where my targeted application is installed is 10.x.x.25

Is it possible to connect an application that is running on a different server to the eclipse in local system? Please help me out if you are aware of this. Thank you!

Hello,
This is a forum for Eclipse JDT related questions. You are more likely to get better responses on StackOverflow or similar forums.

That said, have you checked if you are able to access the said IP address at the port (for e.g. telnet).

And, of course, that the server's JVM is listening for incoming debugger connections?

Nitin Dahyabhai, yes, it is listening for incoming debugger connections.
