I am using WTP in eclipse galileo. I am not able to see the source of jsps,
I a however set breakpoints.
I am doing remote debugging and not using WTP to launch my server. How do I
set up the source locations ?
the "Edit source lookup path" does not seem to do much for jsps. I could
preserve generated java files and put breakpoints in them, but that defeats
the purpose of using jsps and makes it needlessly complicated
thx

Where *are* the JSPs locally? Are you able to find the sources of
Servlet classes you're debugging remotely?

To view JSP source files (or rather, the resulting class Java files), go to Run Configurations, select your server and then click the source tab. Click add to add the source path of your JSP java files.

In my setup, the source path is:

\eclipse-workspace\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.wst.server .core\tmp0\work\Catalina\localhost\_

Restart the server and you should now be able to view the JSP source during debugging or when clicking on a source line in the console.

Hope this helps.
