Testing projects on a remote WebLogic server is done in a similar manner to testing on a local WebLogic server, except that the WebLogic server can only be started and stopped manually, outside of IBM Rational Developer. You can publish and debug a J2EE application running on a remote server by attaching the project to the server.
Before you can commence testing the application on the remote WebLogic server, the server must be started with the following VM parameters:
-Xdebug -Xnoagent -Djava.compiler=NONE -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,address=7777,server=y,suspend=n
Where 7777 is the TCP port number you want the debug communication to use. This should be the same port number that you specified in the remote server configuration.
For more details about starting and stopping WebLogic servers, see the BEA WebLogic Server administration guide.
