I'm trying to get the debugging working with Coldfusion 8. I'm using ubuntu Linux with eclipse with all the required plugins. Our Coldfusion server is Windows IIS. I'm not sure If i'm messing up the mappings or what. I got the debugging working locally on the windows server, but I can't get it to work remotely. Can anyone offer some help please?

    i am having similar issues as Sudman1 -- it seems like all preferences and configs are correct. i can run the debug in eclipse and get the cold fusion template listed in the debug window -- but when i run the template - the page does not stop at any of my breakpoints.
    i am also running eclipse 3.3 on IIs

    I am having the same problem, but it's happening on a windows XP box running Eclipse3.3. The server is running CF8 and RDS is turned on. The only time the debugger attaches to a page is in the ColdFusion Administrator. I beleive it has to do with accessing the site via IIS as opposed to the integrated webserver for CF, but I have no way of verifying. Let me know how you get on - I'll do the same.

    I couldn't get it to work remotely. I'm having to install the developer version of the server on my pc and debug against that locally.

    The debugging I'm referring to is the new line by line debugging only available in version 8. I do however have that option turned on in the Coldfusion 8 administrator and when I do test debugging in eclipse it says that it connects fine.

    I'm still at version 7.02 but it may be the same on 8. Have you added your remote IP address in the "Debugging IP Addresses" area? By default, only 127.0.0.1 (on a Win machine anyhow) is added.
