    While tracing some problems in one of my grails applications I had the need to do step debugging on a remote Tomcat server. Eventually I came up with the following lines to launch TomCat in debug mode:

    @echo off
    set JPDA_TRANSPORT="dt_socket"
    set JPDA_ADDRESS="8000"
    set JPDA_SUSPEND="y"
    catalina.bat jpda start
    

    Simply create a debug.bat file in TomCat’s bin directory and add these lines.
