Starter question: how to use debug tool?

I ve just installed Lua glider and corona starter pack

The debugger does not stop at break points also I get the following message

cannot connect to localhost 8172

Hello Nijelc,

Which platform are you using? If you are on a mac we strongly suggest you redownload the dmg installer and try it again, we recently upgraded to Java 7u40.

hi I am on windows

The debugger is now stopping at break points

when I start the debugger I get the following message in the windows simulator output window

binding to port 36890

listening to port 36890

connected 8172

could not connect to localhost

binding to port 36890

listening to port 36890

connected 8172

When debugging  if I add an in scope  table variable to the watch window, the variable type will say evaluating then nil

If i switch to the variables window, the same variable sometimes also says nil but sometimes shows the table variable in full

more simple variables such as integers are displaying correctly

I am getting the localhost port problem - any ideas?

@nijelc and @sean,

Could the firewall be blocking anything? if so, please try to unblock Glider.

I’m on 2012 MBA and installed starter and lua glider trial version. When I started I don’t even see the corona plug in. I read lua glider QA and tutorial and seems like the plug in should come with the install. Any one help?

Thanks
