I have a Web Project with some Servlets and JSPs. I have added
breakpoints to both.
If I debug the application on Tomcat 5.0.28 the debugger stops in
Servlets and JSPs. But if I debug the application on Tomcat 4.1.31 it
just stops in Servlets. It doesn't stop in JSPs.

Is debugging of JSPs supported since Tomcat 5.x? Or it should work also
with Tomcat 4.1.x?

Thanks in advance,

Chemi.

Although it's rather hard to find a definitive answer, I believe
Tomcat 5.x introduced JSR-45 support. The modified Tomcat 4.1 used
for the JSP 2.0 early access reference implementation lacked it.

I have Tomcat 5.0.19 installed locally and have exacly the same problem
-- debugging stops in servlet compiled from jsp page (and not the page
directly). I tought that it was problem with my tomcat, and I didn't
have time to investigate it futher.

Cheers,

Hummm... well it is not exactly my problem. In my case with Tomcat
5.0.28 everything works ok. The problem is with Tomcat 4.1.31 where
breakpoints in JSPs doesn't work (neither in the generated servlet).

Chemi.

If you're using WTP's Server tools, you might have to enable Tomcat
debugging as indicated at the very end of
http://www.eclipse.org/webtools/wst/components/sse/m2/m2.xml .

Humm, it is funny. I didn't know about that option. In my case, I
haven't it checked and JSP debug worked with Tomcat 5.0.28.

The checkbox label is: Enable Tomcat debug mode (4.x and above). So it
should work with Tomcat 4.1.31. But after checked that option, the
debugger still not stopping at JSP breakpoints.

Anybody is able to debug JSP with Tomcat 4.1.x and WTP 1.0 M2?

Thanks in advance,

Chemi.

Hi,

I'm not sure why the tutorial suggests setting the Tomcat debug flag. AFAIK
that should not have any effect on JSP debugging. I can confirm that JSR-45
support is the reason Tomcat v5.0+ works, and older versions of Tomcat do
not support JSP debugging.

Thanks Tim. That makes the situation clear.
BTW, which is the usage of that debug flag then (Enable Tomcat debug
mode (v4.x and above only))?

Thanks in advance,

Chemi.
