I tried to do remote debugging on a remote glassfish server for some time, using eclipse. I want to do it on my local server which is in my own computer. I followed the same instructions that one follows for setting up remote debugging. In eclipse, I set debug configurations with info - host = localhost, port = 6767 and server in debug mode. 6767 is the port which I use to connect to the admin of my glassfish server.
This approach worked in the actual remote debugging. But it fails in local debugging. I get the error - Failed to connect to remote VM. Connection timed out. org.eclipse.jdi.TimeoutException
How do I fix this error ?
The log from the folder workspace dir > .metadata > .log is given below:
!ENTRY org.eclipse.jdt.launching
!MESSAGE Failed to connect to remote VM. Connection timed out.
!STACK 0

I tried one solution which did not work -
open glassfish admin console in a browser > Configuration > server-config > JVM settings > Debug: Enable the checkbox
