Debugging Web module in multi module Roo project in STS?

[vladsfl]

1. Downloaded 2.9.0M2 STS
2. Create Roo project with parent POM and another module with --packaging war
3. How do I deploy into the server and debug within STS??

Should be much the same as Eclipse with WTP. I.e. right click on the project, and then Debug As>Debug on Server

You may well need to set up your server at this point - depending on what you want, or use the tc server which should be there I think.

Is this not working for you?

Cheers,

Actually that did not work... Project is Roo Project - with POM packaging that contains dependent module that is WAR packaging. STS does not allow Debug On Server.

But i was able to figure it out - since everything is Maven driven I had to create Maven Build Run configuration with Goal tomcat:run and Base directory: ${workspace_loc:/projectname/dependentmodulename} and when I use this run configuration its starts tomcat
