The same "old question", I am pretty new to Maven and I can not figure out why in the end I am getting a message like "Failed to connect to remote VM. Connection refused." from Eclipse.
Maven options (I've set this environment variable on my ~/.profile
~/.bashrc
etc.)
$ echo $MAVEN_OPTS
-Xmx1024m -Xms256m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -Xnoagent -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=y,address=8000
On Eclipse I've set a Debug profile on a Remote Java Application
based on the project I want to debug, with host 127.0.0.1
(not localhost
because the Maven profile dev
I am using, see below, is explicitly setting that IP address) and port 8000
.
Then when I run the application from the command line with the following command (maven is picking a dev
profile from the pom file):
$ mvn tomcat:run -P dev
and I start Eclipse in debug mode on the Eclipse Remote Java Application profile I previously set I am getting a message from an Eclipse popup window saying:
Failed to connect to remote VM. Connection refused.
Connection refused
I suspect the settings from the $MAVEN_OPTS
are not pick up from some reason, have a look at the following output from the ps
command:
USER_NAME@my-laptop $ ps aux | grep tomcat
USER_NAME 16526 11.3 13.7 3014276 500680 pts/5 Sl+ 11:25 0:29 /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/bin/java -classpath /usr/share/maven/boot/plexus-classworlds-2.x.jar -Dclassworlds.conf=/usr/share/maven/bin/m2.conf -Dmaven.home=/usr/share/maven org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.launcher.Launcher tomcat:run -P dev

Please shed some light, thanks and again... Apologies for the dummy question.
