Breakpoints in JSP Using Tomcat 3.2.4 [message #137171]

I'm using Eclipse 3.1 and WTP 0.7 with JDK 1.5.0_04 and Tomcat 3.2.4.

I built the sample WTP web application and got it to execute fine. I then
attempted to add some breakpoints to play with the debugger.

I am able to successfully break and step through servlet code. However,
my breakpoints in the JSP file are all ignored. I have introduced several
small snipets of code into the JSP to provide plenty of spots for
breakpoints -- none of which work.

I'd really like to be able to step through the JSP code. Is this a Tomcat
3.2.4 integration issue or something else entirely?

Thanks for your time.

Both, I think, We only support JSP debugging if the server supports JSR =
45 ...
I'm not sure what the first version was that supported JSR 45, but think=
it was
later.

You need Tomcat 5 or later to debug .jsp's. I found this out the hard
way, too.

Thanks to you both. I installed Tomcat 5.0.28 purely for use in the
debugger and it works as advertised with little learning curve on my part.
I just needed to drop some files in to common/lib and I was on my way.

Anyone know of a cheat sheet guide for migrating an apache server from
tomcat 3.2.x to tomcat 5.0.28? I'd sure like to know if there was an easy
way of changing the apache configuration.
