Re: [flexcoders] Re: No debugging information available for invocation of methods on server-side
Hi Andrew,
{Tomcat_home}/logs/stdout.log is the only file that gets anything and
it is minimal. I don't seem to have a catalina.out, but perhaps this
is stdout.log under Tomcat 5.0?
Thanks for the reminder about the net debugger. I picks up my calls
but the information is limited. For example, when my java method threw
a NullPointerException the NetDebugger gave me the following fairly
cryptic message...
DebugId: 0
EventType: "Status"
MovieUrl: "http://localhost:8080/ge-flex/eMotor.mxml.swf"
Protocol: "http"

Have you got an example of debug output from remote calls from your
logs? I'm interested what it looks like.
cheers

Hey Dan,
have you tried looking at catalina.out?
Also if you have turned on all of the debugging on the flex-config how
about running the NetConnectionDebugger ? It will help monitor all
remoteObject calls and the result/fault returns from your java backend.
You can find it in your flex install directory
/extras/netConnectionDebugger/

What debugging information do people work with?

was getting was "Error: An error occurred during service

my Tomcat log. Urgh!

[flexcoders] Re: No debugging information available for invocation of methods on server-side
Hey Dan, Sorry, catalina.out is Tomcats output stream for logging packages such as Log4J and other similar tools. So you really wont get much of an output in the tomcat console or your stdout.log (these will probably only display your System.out messages etc) If it took you so long to find that your java was throwing a null pointer exception, try and handle these exceptions more thoroughly. I find null parameter checking a pain but it has to be done. And if you use throws appropriately you can catch the output in your flex app in the event.fault object of a remoteObject call. Very neat! If you have any more questions feel free to contact me offline (andrew .at. base-elements.net) as it may head slightly off topic.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: No debugging information available for invocation of methods on server-side
Note that the reason why the Throwable class info
"NullPointerException" wasn't included in the status info"type" property
is because of a default setting on the AMF Gateway. Internal class information
is not included in the form of stack traces or exception types as they shouldn't
be exposed in a production environment.
To get the AMF
Gateway to return exception class names you can turn on the show-stacktraces
option in the /WEB-INF/flex/gateway-config.xml file.
