JavaScript Debugger Error: Connection is not alive

Posted by boaster on 2008-02-04 14:27

I'm a new user of Komodo IDE and I followed the JavaScript tutorial instructions to install the Komodo Debugger in Firefox (1.5.0.12). I run Komodo, and then open Firefox but when I attempt to connect to the debugger I get:

Komodo JavaScript Debugger: Error: Connection is not alive for 127.0.0.1:9000

Please advise. I'm not much of a networking guy. Thanks!

This most likely means that Komodo is not set up correctly. Please try this:

- in Komodo, open up Preferences / Debugger / Connection
- set the debugger to listen on a specific port, and fill in Port 9000 in the field.

Komodo should now be listening for debugger connections on Port 9000, and you should be able to connect the JavaScript debugger in Firefox to Komodo.
