Javascript Debugger not working

[progm]

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to enable the Javascript Debugger, but it's giving me this error when I click "enable", with the repository and also with the share.

If someone please know where the problem is.

Thanks in advance.

Please, check the server logs (alfresco.log, share.log and catalina.out).

Those files should give you more useful information on what is going wrong.

I don't understand what is the problem. please if you can help me.

[afaust]

Are you running Alfresco as a service on a Windows server? Looks like it... In that case, you will not be able to use the server-side JavaScript debugger at all. It is just that way as the debugger tries to open a window within the process owner's UI - but a service is not associated with any UI of the process owner, so cannot open the debugger UI.

There is no error specific to the debugger in the log output you provided. Ideally, please provide the full files and not just an excerpt, and ideally do this as attachments instead of posting it in a reply.

Yes exactly I'm runing it as a service on a Windows. Thank you Mr Axel.

I've managed to eliminate the error on a customer's machine, the java console still doesn't show up though:

Add the following java opts to the startup:

-Xdebug
-Djava.awt.headless=false

This tells the service to run in debug mode and not headless so it (theoretically) should be able to open a window.

Ensure the windows service is running under a real user (service account), and NOT the local system user, otherwise you'll get a nullpointer exception at sun.awt.shell.Win32ShellFolder2.access$200(Unknown Source)

You can do both actions using alfrescoTomcat1w.exe (found in alfresco/tomcat/bin, it's <service_name>w.exe)

Then when trying to activate the debugger, the button changes to 'Disable' and there is no error in the log files.

Unfortunately the console is still not showing. (Tried logging on to the server with the account that runs the windows service, still no luck) Something is still missing.

At least it's no longer throwing any errors anymore. Should this help anyone getting a step closer to figuring out a way to show the debugger console that would be great.
