HowTo debug java/tomcat (Jandcode) in custom Docker-container.

Hi Erlan,

Starting with version 2023.1, 'Remote JVM Debug' configurations are deprecated.

Please use Docker run targets instead:

• https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/run-targets.html#docker
• https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/run-targets.html#docker_compose

Hi Arina

I do what is written in the documentation, but nothing works for me.

Hi Erlan,

Please see this demo project: https://github.com/Koyasha/tomcat_docker_debug

It contains an example and instructions on how to debug a Java/Tomcat application in a Docker container in IntelliJ IDEA 2023.1.

We will make sure to also update IntelliJ IDEA documentation with this information.
