thanks for you tip of searching in stackflow.i did it as http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8615226/eclipsenode-js-error-when-debugging-failed-to-connect-to-standalone-v8-vm-con told.

then it works.it does make very sense to me.i wish it can be like debug java in eclipse(.just debug as java application in ide).why do we need debug it in command line first,and then we can debug in eclipse.

[haroldjiang]

sorry,it does not make very sense ,wrong typo

Question http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8615226/eclipsenode-js-error-when-debugging-failed-to-connect-to-standalone-v8-vm-con is not related to Nodeclipse directly.

Check #72, the reason may be Java version incompatibly.

Please give

• Nodeclipse version number (like 0.5 or 0.6)
• Eclipse version number (like 4.2.2 or 3.8.0)
• Eclipse distribution (e.g. Eclipse for JEE Developers)
• A detailed description of the steps necessary to reproduce the problem.

[haroldjiang]

OS WIN7/64
Eclipse Java Development Tools 3.9.1
Eclipse PlatForm 4.3.1
nodeclipse - http://dl.bintray.com/nodeclipse/nodeclipse/0.8.0/

Eclipse Standard 4.3.1

step to reproduce.
1 right click on the main node js file.it prompts out with a dialog.
2 choose "Debug AS Node Application"
3 get a message of "Failed to connect to Standalone V8 VM Connection refused: connect"

[haroldjiang]

thanks very much for help

by the way after run "node --debug-brk app.js" in command lin first.then do those steps above,you wont get the error message.it works as expecation

What is your Java version?

Do you mean the solution was to run node --debug-brk app.js first?

[haroldjiang]

java version "1.6.0_30"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_30-b12)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.5-b03, mixed mode)

yes,the solution is to run node --debug-brk app.js first.
