Ok, I have a project working with Eclipse Galileo 3.5.1 and it works fine. I can create new drools projects and they debug fine with the DroolsTest example. However I have a very larege existing project that does not use the src/main/java and src/main/rules src folder structure and the project runs fine, and I can "Debug as Drools Application" no problem, however it will never stop on any breakpoints in the rules file. Does this have anything to do with the fact that I am not using the default src/rules direcories structure? Or, is it dependent on loading the DRL file in a particular method. I am loading the file usin this method: java.io.FileInputStream fis = *new* java.io.FileInputStream( *new* java.io.File(*"C:\\Path\\To\\Some\\Dir\\rules.drl*)); builder.add(ResourceFactory.*newInputStreamResource*(fis), ResourceType.*DRL*); Should I be loading the fule file using the DroolsTest sample code method like below? KnowledgeBuilder kbuilder = KnowledgeBuilderFactory.*newKnowledgeBuilder*(); kbuilder.add(ResourceFactory.*newClassPathResource*("Sample.drl"), ResourceType.*DRL*); Does these even make a difference? Or any ideas why I can't get any debug breakpoints in my rule file in my custom project to go into break-time?

Yes, I converted it to a Drools project and I do have errors being flagged in my drools file if I have them. Still nothing. I am very frustrated .... I am still able to stop at breakpoints in rules files by creating a drools project from scratch and Debug As - > Drools application, but something about converting an existing project and debugging it.
