Debugging using Eclipse IDE, source not found [message #1860003]

Hello,

Thank you for reading my post.

In the Eclipse IDE, I have a workspace with several interdependent projects:
- four dynamic Web projects,
- one Java project
- and three Web fragments.

After setting breakpoints, when I try to debug my project, instead of allowing me to trace the code step by step after the breakpoint has been reached, I get an empty window with a "Source not found" message and a button labelled "Edit Source Lookup Path".

What is bizarre is that I can trace the code with one of dynamic Web projects but not inside the others.

Can you please help?

Best regards.

How are you launching your project for debug?

Hello,

I go to the "Servers" window which has an entry "Tomcat v10.0 Server at localhost".
I right-click on that entry and choose "Debug".

Best regards.

I've faced a similar issue before. It sounds like a source path problem. Try right-clicking on the project, then "Properties > Java Build Path > Source", and check if paths match. Good luck!

Cheers!
