I want to be able to debug our Java webapp by remotely connecting to a JBoss EAP 6.4 server. My first attempt is to have the "remote" JBoss running on my local host.
My question is similar to this one. In both of our cases, we get a connection error. Mine is:
Unable to connect to the cse-webdav.com:9990, reason: com.intellij.javaee.process.common.WrappedException: java.io.IOException: java.net.ConnectException: JBAS012144: Could not connect to remote://cse-webdav.com:9990. The connection timed out
(cse-webdav.com is an alias for my localhost, set up in my hosts file.) I can successfully log in to http://cse-webdav.com:9990 using my (Chrome) web browser, and get the admin console as expected. My IntelliJ settings are:
The other question I referenced earlier has an answer that says that problems can occur due to version mismatches in the JBoss settings. In the image, there appears to be such a mismatch between versions 6.4 and 7.5. However, IntelliJ automatically chose the version (7.5) based on my entry of the JBoss Home directory, and I can't seem to change it.
How can I configure my IntelliJ to connect to JBoss. It seems like it should be easy, but it hasn't been.
