remote debugging a jnlp application with IntelliJ

Question

I'm trying to debug a web start application using IntelliJ 10 (running on Win7).

I read both SO:

• remote debugging a jnlp application with eclipse
• How can I debug applications under Java Web Start (JNLP) ?

It seems like I'm missing something. I've tried to run it from command line, or adding the arguments into the jnlp file but no matter what I do I get an Unable to open debugger port : java.net.ConnectException "Connection refused: connect" Error.

How can I debug a web start app?

Answer 1

I know it's stupid, but once I changed the port from 5000 to 5005 it all works.
