Which server are you using   Like already said    In your debug configuration you ll have to define the right port of your server  GF 9009   Tomcat 8000  You ll have to set the JVM property of the server to debug   For Glassfish       Log in to admin-console  gt  Configurations  gt  server-config  gt  JVM-Settings  gt  check DEBUG checkbox  gt  restart server   For Tomcat    create file debug bat  sh  depending on your OS  in  TOMCAT HOME  bin directory and write      set JPDA ADDRESS 8000     set JPDA TRANSPORT dt socket     catalina bat jpda start   in it   After you ve created this file start server by executing debug bat  sh   Now you should be able to debug remotely in Eclipse after you set the necessary properties in your debug configuration   Hope this helped  Have Fun   EDIT    If you re running tomcat in a Win environment as a service you don t have a catalina bat file in the bin-directory of your tomcat installation  To set your server into debug-mode please try the following      Run the Configuration option in Windows Menu or run  catalina home  bin tomcat6w exe In Java tab  add this line to Java         options -Xrunjdwp transport dt socket address 8000 server y suspend n

I ran into this problem debugging play framework version 2 x  turned out the server hadn t been started even though the play debug run command was issued  After a first request to the webserver which caused the play framework to really start the application at port 9000  I was able to connect properly to the debug port 9999 from eclipse    info  play - Application started  Dev    The text above was shown in the console when the message above appeared  indicating why eclipse couldn t connect before first http request

I faced the same issue  But i resolved it by changing my port numbers to different one

User · Answer

Sometimes the port which you are trying to access  gets occupied and won t be released  Try some tools to find whether the port is in use or not  I also faced the same issue  I tried giving different port numbers but unfortunately it didn t work  I tried restarting the system  not the application server   and it worked

As suat said  most of the time the connection refused is due to the fact that the port you set up is in use or there is a difference between the port number in your remote application debugging configuration in Eclipse and the port number used in the address attribute in   -Xrunjdwp transport dt socket address 1044 server y suspend n    Check those things  Thanks

The port number in the Eclipse configuration and the port number of your application might not be the same  You might not have been started your application with the right parameters   Those are the simple problems when I have faced  Connection refused  error
