Debugging a Java Service while it Runs in Integration Server

As an alternative to debugging a Java service by using a test harness and debugging the local Java class in the Service Development Project, you can set up your Integration Server so that you can debug a Java service remotely. That is, use the features of Designer to debug a service that is running in Integration Server.

To debug a Java service using this method, you need to:

For Integration Server version 9.7 or later, update and run startDebugMode.bat. For more information, see Setting Up Integration Server Version 9.7 or Later for Remotely Debugging a Java Service.

For Integration Server version 9.0, 9.5.x, or 9.6, update the Integration Server setenv.bat/sh file to enable a debug port. For more information, see Setting Up Integration Server Version 9.0, 9.5.x, or 9.6 for Remotely Debugging a Java Service.

Create a Java project in Designer from an existing source, which is the IS package in Integration Server. For more information, see Creating a Java Project for an IS Package in Designer .

Create a Remote Java Application launch configuration to use when debugging the Java service. For more information, see Creating a Remote Java Application Launch Configuration.

Open the Java service in Designer to set breakpoints and then execute it in debug mode.

Important:

Never remotely debug a Java service that is running on your production Integration Server. You should always use a development system.
