RE: [cfaussie] CFBuilder Debugger Virtual Hosts
No what Mark is referring to is the debug mappings, but I still think this is only needed for remote servers. As it clearly says if the server is installed locally it can work it out, and I have done this many times with many sites and it has worked it out. But like I said that might be different to Virtual Hosts because I personally don't use Apache.

Re: RE: [cfaussie] CFBuilder Debugger Virtual Hosts
I seem to have tracked this down to project settings. If I create a new project, then link my wwwroot folder to it via Project Preferences - , the debugger works. lf I create a new project, then re-import everything (excluding .project, .settings and settings.xml), it still doesn't work, which is a bit weird. So I think my solution might be to have a dummy project, which is just a link to my wwwroot. Messy, but it works...

Re: RE: [cfaussie] CFBuilder Debugger Virtual Hosts
Nope - the reason the new project worked, was that I had created a new virtual host for it. It had nothing to do with the folder links. I just blew away my old virtual host, and created a new one, and now it's working in my original project. There must have been something not right with my apache config. So it was my fault all along.

[cfaussie] CFBuilder Debugger Virtual Hosts
Hi, Does anyone have CFBuilder's step debugger working with virtual hosts? My dev environment is something like this: 9.0.1 installed as MultiServer, server root is c:\Jrun4 I access the CFADMIN via the url below as an Apache Virtual host: http://cf.localhost/CFIDE/admin My dev sites are at things like: http://a.localhost http://b.localhost etc. In CFBuidler. my server is set up with cf.localhost as the server Host Name, and my virtual hosts set up in the Virtual Hosts tab on page 2 of the Modify ColdFusion Server Setup wizardy thing and restarted it. In my project settings I have the correct virtual host selected. I've enabled debugging and modified my jvm.config as per the docs. The IE preview in the cfml editor works. The RDS server test works under Window-Preferences-Adobe-RDS Configuration. But the debugger does not stop at my breakpoints :-| CFBuilder is installed as an eclipse plugin if it matters. Has anyone had it working with a similar setup? Andrew. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups cfaussie group.

Re: [cfaussie] CFBuilder Debugger Virtual Hosts
I have CFBuilder setup like this and it works fine. I didn't need to define the virtual hosts in the project settings. I have http://projecta and http://projectb running fine. Are you sure the debugger is working even for non virtual hosts? As soon as the debugger hits a break point in code under that project it should stop code execution and just into debugging. That being said I run standalone CF and CFBuilder standalone. Paul. On 8/02/2011 3:46 PM, Andrew wrote: Hi, Does anyone have CFBuilder's step debugger working with virtual hosts?

RE: [cfaussie] CFBuilder Debugger Virtual Hosts
Hi Andrew, Although I can't have said I use it with Virtual Hosts, as I do find them fairly problematic at times. But I can tell you that there are known issues with the debugger that Adobe are currently looking at, one of these are break points that don't fire. Now this mainly applies to CFScript but I have even seen it happen in tag based code as well, where you fire a break point and it won't fire. But if you move the break point to somewhere else up in the code, it will fire with no problems. When you step through the code you will notice that it gets to a certain point and will exit the code template and return back to the previous calling template, this has been annoying me for the best part of 16 months or there about. I have even seen it not fire in the Application.cfc and you restart the ColdFusion server and it will then fire, I have even seen it actually look like it will fire but CFB doesn't acknowledge that it has received the request, and yet the page is still waiting in a connection to the server. I have even seen this happen a few times, and each time if you find the browser still trying to connect, and the IDE not responding, a huge amount of java.exe in the task list. Most people don't use the Debugger religiously like I do, and those that don't are usually the ones who are not seeing any problems with the debugger. I know it is of no comfort but here are a few video's that show some of the problems I was having. http://vimeo.com/19344071 - Shows the browser waiting for the server to finish, normally won't happen in a debug session. But you can also see that the debugger is not also firing. http://vimeo.com/19344478 - Shows how the debugger can skip lines in the code as well, this example is a cut down version of one I had noticed where the function was about 100-200 lines of code, with cfloops and cffile. When I tried to break on the cffile, it told me it couldn't reach it. When I moved the line further up, it certainly stopped on the line I just asked it too, but when stepping through the code it got to the first cfloop and then exited the function. I know there are serious issues with the line debugger, but others seem to have not found these problems. I put it down to that these people are not using the debugger on a daily basis, as part of the debug strategy and prefer to use the old cfdump method run page instead. I do challenge people to begin to use it on a daily, more consistent basis, and you will see a lot more complaints about the debugger than what there is. However the good news is that an Adobe Engineer is currently looking into a particular bug number that I raised, and with the added information that I have been able to give him hopefully we may see a fix for it. I would also like to stress that the problems with the debugger happen in both CFB Standalone, as well as a plugin into all version of Eclipse that I have tried. It also doesn't matter whether you have ColdFusion installed as standalone, multi-server or even whether it is stored remotely or not. I am able to duplicate all the problems on all these type of configurations. If you would like to contact me off list, I could email the engineer your details and ask him to have a word with you as well. To see if it is related to the problem he is currently looking at.

Re: [cfaussie] CFBuilder Debugger Virtual Hosts
Thanks Paul Andrew for your replies. I just tried something else - decided that rather than setting my server to connect to the apache mapping to cf.localhost I would go straight to localhost:8300. It still doesn't work for my virtual host, however, it stopped on an exception when I opened the CF administrator. The exception reports itself as being in e:\cf9_updates_rc\cfusion\wwwroot\CFIDE\administrator\Application.cfm:203 So the debugger is working, sometimes. Just not for my virtual hosts. I'll play some more tonight or tomorrow. I'm using Eclipse Helios - I might try a standalone install again, just in case...but not confident that will be the solution. Andrew's post is interesting - I might have a more detailed look a little later too. Andrew. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups cfaussie group.

Re: [cfaussie] CFBuilder Debugger Virtual Hosts
Have you set up your folder mappings? I use virtual hosts (all my cf servers are on VMs), and the debugging folder mappings are key in getting the debugger to work.

RE: [cfaussie] CFBuilder Debugger Virtual Hosts
If the ColdFusion server is local, does the VirtualHost settings still need to be done? It is stated that if ColdFusion is locally this is not required, as mappings for the debugger.
