Then I'm not certain why it's not functional for you aside from: you must be missing steps in the magic dance to get VPC to remote debug. I've never tried getting remote debugging to work under VPC, so perhaps someone else has some insights. Also, I seem to recall someone posting steps on the list before -- you may want to search the archives as well.

Yeah, I just read through all that rigmarole. It works as long as OS X's firewall is disabled. It can connect to the stub and send the application, but when it launches the app, it gives a failed assertion saying the app couldn't find the IDE. I'm pretty sure this doesn't have anything to do with VPC specifically. It seems like OS X won't accept a connection.


With a bit of help from tcpflow (which completely ignores -b!!), below is the end of the beginning of a remote debug session.


192.168.000.007.52009-192.168.000.012.33445: .MenuBar1.MenuBar1%o<MenuBar1>%.App.__Lookup._NewAppInstance._MakeDefaul tView._Main._InitPluginEntrypoints.........
RUN 0002542.007.13897-192.168.000.012.01056: BRLA 00002D36


With the firewall on, the last message (RUN...) never gets sent.

192.168.0.7 is my number, .12 is the Windows machine. Ring any bells? It's interesting to me that there's other ports involved than 33445, 44553, 44554.


Weird.... and as soon as I added 01056 to the ports allowed, the system suddenly thinks there's other firewall software running and now won't let me change my settings! Grrr...
