I am running JBoss/Tomcat with JPDA remote debugging turned on but I keep getting "Failed to connect to remote VM. Connectin refused" when I try to remote debug via eclipse. Any ideas?
Is the port the same for the server and the IDE? Maybe on Mac the App Server uses a different port than the default, and Eclipse use the standard default 5000, I think or is it 8000, or 5001. I forget, I can open up IDEA but I am lazy right now. Sorry, I will open it soon since I need to code today, then I will post the defualt.
Oh, and make sure that you aren't already connected too. That sometimes happens to me, I am already connected and didn't remember, so I connect again and get a refusal.

I am using Eclipse and set the port to 7000 on both the server and the client.
I found the following on another post but I am still not sure what to do:
"Yo Rob, whatup buddy? I see no one has answered your question yet. Why doesn't anyone ever answer your questions? Is it because the only questions you ask cannot be answered by mere mortals?
The answer to your question is that MacOSX is using a slightly different method of obtaining the local hosts's IP address than Windows. If the DHCP server supplies a name for the ethernet port to which you connect, getHostName() on MacOS returns that name instead of "localhost", which is a problem if that name is not in the DNS. (And normally it won't be.) So what you have to do is manually add the port name to your local host database on the Mac using NetInfo, and point it to "localhost", and then all is well."
