[...] Red5[1] contributor Paul Gregoire recently added a new server startup script targeted specifically at application debugging. The script is quite simple in nature and is provided in both Windows and Unix flavors. Take note, however, that this script is exclusive to the standalone version of Red5. Debugging the WAR version of the server is quite a different task. To demonstrate the ease of debugging your applications, I’ll walk through a simple example using Eclipse[2] and the source code from my stream recording tutorial. [...]

Well, I got it.
In my environment it gave a result when I write in a batch-file:

“%JAVA_HOME%/bin/java” -Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n,address=8787 -Djava.security.manager -Djava.security.policy=conf/red5.policy -cp red5.jar;conf;bin;%CLASSPATH% org.red5.server.Standalone

That is, I’ve put JAVA_OPTS into string where StandAlone application in fact is launched.

Then, it writes:

d:\Program Files\Red5>red5-debug.bat
Listening for transport dt_socket at address: 8787

and continues to write out all the full log of red5. But, now it’s not a problem, just a difference in this between my Win and your *nix cases.

So, it’s working :), thanks for pointing the way.

P.S.
Why it ignores the set JAVA_OPTS - it’s another talk.

Doing this under WinXP and Intellij IDEA.
When starting the batch script - all the full log is writing out into the console straight away. It behaves like an obvious start up of the Red5 server. And there is no any message in the top like “Listening for transport dt_socket at address: 8787“. Maybe it’s normal to Windows?…

But when I’m starting debugging in my IDE it says: “Error running : Unable to open debugger port: java.net.ConnectException ‘Connection refused: connect’”

I suppose that second one is the consequence of the first step. What do you think?

@Matteo:

The scripts do not yet exist in a released version. You’ll have to create the scripts yourself using the examples I included above in the article. The only other option is to check out the latest version of Red5 from Subversion.

Hi,your tutorial is very clear, but I can’t find red5_debug.sh
I’m using red5 0.6.3 standalone Windows version.
thanks for your help!
