Trouble launching IDEA debugger

Hi all,

I don't know if I choosen the right forum, but maybe you can help me. I have a little program what I want to debug inside IDEA. But - if I try to launch the debugger, IDEA says "Unable to launch target VM". If I launch it without debugger, the application starts correctly. What's wrong with it?

Could you please describe your configuration in detail:
the IDEA build number,
exact target JDK version
debugger settings in File | Project Properties | Debugger

Odds are that your firewall doesn't allow java to connect to the net,
specifically, to the debug port. An easy workaround (other than opening your
firewall to allow this ;) is to go to the debugger tab of project
properties and select 'Shared memory' as the transport.

This was the solution. I had choosen "sockets" for debugging, and that was wrong. Thanx all!

BTW, shmem transport implementation always had problems so I'd recommend using socket transport if possible.
