Re^2: CGI PERL Remote Debugging

Thanks for the Response Thomas.

Above steps did not helped for my actual question. I need to debug the PERL CGI code from Windows(client) using IDE.

The source code exists and runs in a Linux server. Now I use to connect Linux server using Putty and debugging the PERL code. However, to ease the job, it would be fine if we have a Komodo kind of IDE but free or open, which has the ability to do remote debugging.

Note: The linux server has limited access to the developer, so installing VNC or X11 in the server is not possible as of now.

Like thomas895 said, all you need is ssh2 access, no X11 required. Once you connect, you change the shebang for the CGI to <C>#!/usr/bin/perl -d and you set perl5db.pl RemotePort option to localhost:666119 ... http://docs.activestate.com/komodo/4.4/debugperl.html# Debugging Perl http://community.activestate.com/forum/help-interactive-debugging-windows# Help: Interactive debugging on Windows http://plosquare.blogspot.com/2009/04/debugging-modperl-applications-with.html# Debugging mod_perl with EPIC http://www252.pair.com/comdog/mastering_perl/Chapters/04.debugger.html# Mastering Perl: Debugging Perl http://wiki.eprints.org/w/EclipseEpicPerlDebug Enabling GUI Debugging under Mod_Perl http://books.google.com/books?id=UDUmoHOUXiMC&pg=PA142&lpg=PA142&dq=perl5db+Remote+Port+tutorial&source=bl&ots=_7fyyfZ2VK&sig=IBHqYwf7yXF0JKKx0Oh2VsZF9v0&hl=en Devel::ebug, ebug_http, ebug-client, ebug-server	[reply]
