Troubleshooting
Problem
In Rational® Application Developer, if you are debugging an application in the test environment, the application might stop responding and eventually, time-out exceptions display; however, when you are running in non-debug mode, the same application runs successfully.
Symptom
The results you might see include:
- Debugger appears to "hang" or no longer responds after the server has been started. You might have needed to use End Task to show the IDE.
- The server seems to stay in a "Starting..." state.
- When debugging applications, sometimes the debugger works and sometimes it does not work. It seems to run more often after trying to start the server several times.
- The debugger seems to hit a breakpoint that is not set in your own code. It seems to hit random breakpoints.
- Your EGL program seems to hang or not respond when debugging an application that involves a server to start.
- If you are debugging an application that opens a pop-up window, the IDE seems to hang until the server times out.
If any of the above situations occurs when you are debugging against a remote server, in the .log file found in the .metadata directory, you might see the following exception being thrown:
!MESSAGE Problems occurred when invoking code from plug-in:
"org.eclipse.core.runtime".
!STACK 0
org.eclipse.jdi.TimeoutException
or something similar to:
!MESSAGE An exception occurred while filtering debug events.
!STACK 0
org.eclipse.jdi.TimeoutException
