Android Question Rapid Debugger Problem

[DrAlex]

Hello, I have exactly the same problem as described in

https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/rapid-debugger-fails-on-every-android-device.63944.

The program runs in the release mode and in the legacy debugger, but not in the rapid debugger.

Which version of Java are you using (check Tools - Configure Paths)?

 

[DrAlex]

C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.8.0_31\bin\javac.exe

 

[Luiz Fernando Orlandini]

I got the same problem.

My version is: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_71\bin\javac.exe

 

[Luiz Fernando Orlandini]

Just update Java and increase process timeout, and everything back to work now.

1. Try to disable your anti virus.
2. Please post the IDE logs: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/intermittent-error-message.9047/#post-50478

Just update Java and increase process timeout, and everything back to work now.

I have updated Java SDK so that now it is at C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_74\bin\javac.exe. I have also increased the timeout from 30 to 120 s. No avail.

1. Try to disable your anti virus.
2. Please post the IDE logs: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/intermittent-error-message.9047/#post-50478

1. Tried it, it did not help.
2. Please see the attached log file.

Are you running multiple instances of B4A?
Have you tried to restart the computer?

 

[DrAlex]

No, I don't run multiple instances of B4A.

I have restarted the computer and run B4A.exe -log again. Got the same problem. I attach the log file.

 

[DrAlex]

I shall note yet another new phenomenon: "Installing file to device" takes now very long time. The simplest CheckPhone app takes 47 sec to load, and it is the same with both debuggers.

 

[Erel]

Try it with a new empty project and see whether it works.

Are you using a real device or the emulator?

 

[DrAlex]

I have created an empty new project, but it also does not work with the rapid debugger. Again, it works with the legacy, but in a strange way. As if the IDE starts the app and then loses the control of it: the program ignores breakpoints and cannot be stopped by the IDE. Even if you close the B4A on Windows, the app continues running.

I am using a real device, HTC One.

 

[Erel]

Are you connected to the device with USB debug mode? If yes then please post the unfiltered logs. Both in rapid debug mode and in legacy debug mode.

 

[DrAlex]

Yes, I am connected with USB. The logs are attached.

 

[Erel]

Based on the description it looks like there is a network problem that prevents the debugger from connecting to the device. It works in the legacy debugger because the legacy debugger can work without a network connection (similar to running in release mode).

The firewall or anti virus are maybe blocking the connection.

You can try it with B4A-Bridge.

 

[DrAlex]

Hello Erel,

1. Please note that the legacy debugger is also not working properly, so I can't use it as a workaround.

2. I stopped both the antivirus and the firewall on my computer, but it did not help.

3. I tried the B4A-Bridge. Same phenomenon: the app is installed and started, then a message appears, "Waiting for IDE debugger to connect" and then the app crashes.

 

[Erel]

As I wrote in my previous post something in your network configuration prevents the debugger from connecting to the device.

Try to test it with a different computer.

 

[DrAlex]

Tried it today on my ancient XP laptop, with the same version of B4A and of the antivirus, and it worked! What shall I check/do to make it work again on my Win8 workstation?

 

[Erel]

Hard to say. Have you tried to disable the firewall?
