[rules-users] Debug rules running on server

[Michael Neale]

at this stage I don't think this is possible. The rules debugging
doesn't (AFAIK) implement the java debug protocol:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/jpda/jdwp-spec.html

which is what allows remote debugging (generally).

So you have 2 options:

1) (obvious !) reproduce it "in process"
2) Add in event listener code for the rules, deploy that, and then
remotely debug the event code (which is just java) as you would
normally. Not quite the same as debugging the rules but you can at
least interrupt things and have a poke around.
