Trouble setting up a WebLogic remote configuration

I forgot to say, I'm running IDEA 8.1.3 build #9886

Are there any exceptions in /.IntelliJIdea8x/system/log/idea.log file?

I have a WL 10 instance running on a remote Solaris machine.
The WL home directory is (samba) exported and I have it mounted/mapped on my windows machine where I do my development.
I'm setting up a WebLogic instance (remote) and am running into some trouble.  I've had this setup under eclipse so I know
some of the values for the settings.

First, from the settings dialog I go to the Application Servers setting and add a new application server.
I choose a WL server.  My WL home is in a subdirectory of the the mapped directory (W:\bea100) so I choose that.
IDEA correctly determines that the BEA version is 10.0.1.0 which is great.  I click OK.


Back on the Application Servers setup I have a warning that "Class 'javax.servlet.Servlet' not found in application server
so I attach classes W:\bea100\wlserver_10.0\server\lib\api.jar which makes the error go away.  I click OK to dismiss the
settings dialog.

Next I go to the "Edit Configuration" dropdown and add a remote WebLogic Instance.  I give it a name and uncheck the
start browser checkbox.  I'm not sure what the user/password/server settings are for so I guess my first question is "what are they"?
I've set the host and port under the Remote Connection Settings.

Now, when I try to connect a debugging session to the running instance I receive an error dialog.
It is titled "Run Error" and the message is "Error running WL remote: weblogic.Server".

Can anyone help me to get this working properly?
Thanks,
Kevin.

No, there are no exceptions there.

I have just added weblogic.jar to the classes in the application server configuration
and fixed the debug port listed on the Startup/Connection page (should have been 8804).

Now when I try to connect the debugger I get a short pause and then an error dialog comes up with the following:

Run Error
Error running WL remote: Error Connecting to WebLogic server.
Exception occurred : java.io.IOException
Exception message : null
----

But still no exceptions or log messages in either the idea.log or on the WL server.
I feel that I'm closer but still no dice.

I'm having the same problem (or at least the same error message).
I'm trying to connect to Weblogic 10.3
I see the following exception in the log file C:\Documents and Settings\myusername\.IntelliJIdea11\system\log\idea.log

There is no other cause or any other detailed message.
It seems to be some kind of NullPointerException at com.intellij.javaee.run.execution.J2EERemoteState.execute(J2EERemoteState.java:61),
but since I don't have access to the Intellij IDEA sources, this stacktrace has no use for me....

Ah, yes, also it's worth mentioning that in the weblogic console there is continuously displayed this message:

I had to close IDEA in order to stop getting these error messages. (although in IDEA there was no indication that it's still trying to attach to the weblogic debug session...)

Same problem here. Any news on that one?

Debugger failed to attach: handshake failed - received >t3 10.3.3 AS:2< - excepted >JDWP-Handshake<
Debugger failed to attach: handshake failed - connection prematurally closed
