Debugging jnlp application (Java 1.6) problem..

945789Jun 26 2012 — edited Jun 26 2012
Im trying to debug a jnlp that we have deployed. I have tried the following options:

javaws -J-Xdebug -J-agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,address=8787,server=y,suspend=n http://mywebmachine.internal.com/1.6/link_OIL-ID_Remote.jnlp

javaws -J-Xdebug -J-Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,address=8787,server=y,suspend=n http://mywebmachine.internal.com/1.6/link_OIL-ID_Remote.jnlp

In either case, if I try to telnet to this port, it fails:
C:\>telnet 127.0.0.1 8787
Connecting To 127.0.0.1...Could not open connection to the host, on port 8787: Connect failed

C:\>telnet localhost 8787
Connecting To localhost...Could not open connection to the host, on port 8787: Connect failed

I used the information from these forum posts, but it isn't helping me get any leads...
http://java.dzone.com/articles/debugging-java-web-start (Help for JWS 1.5)
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/1.5.0/docs/guide/javaws/developersguide/troubleshooting.03.06.html (Comparison between 1.5 & 1.6)

Can anyone help me figure out how I can debug Java Web Start application? The machine which runs the JWS is:
java version "1.6.0_24"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_24-b07)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 19.1-b02, mixed mode, sharing)

I'll be using IntelliJ IDEA 10.0 to connect & debug this process
