Enable Debugging on the WebLogic Server

In order for the JDeveloper debugger to debug an application deployed to WebLogic Server, the server must be started in debug mode. WebLogic Server debugging is based on the Java Platform Debugger Architecture (JPDA). Note: We are using the domain wl_server, to deploy and debug the provided application.

To start WebLogic Server in debug mode, you will need to modify the startWebLogic.cmd script in the \wlserver_10.0\samples\domains\wl_server directory. is the directory in which WebLogic 10.0.1 was installed into.

In the startWebLogic.cmd script, specify the JAVA OPTIONS with:

set JAVA_OPTIONS=-Xdebug -Xnoagent -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,address=4000,server=y,suspend=n

The -XDebug parameter enables debugging. The -Xnoagent parameter disables the default sun.tools.debug debug agent. The -Xrunjdwp parameter loads the JPDA reference implementation of JDWP. Debugging is enabled on port 4000. The JDWP protocol is the protocol used to debug with a remote debugger.
