I'm running the ColdFusion Builder 3 (Express edition) to connect to a locally running ColdFusion 9 server (windows machine).

When I set up the RDS configuration on the CF Builder and click on Test Connection everything is ok.

RDS Configuration Settings

But when I click on Test Debugger I get the following error:

Could not initialize class coldfusion.log.CFLogs

RDS Error message

Is this a problem with CF Builder 3 trying to access the CF 9 server?

According to this Adobe forum post they resolved the same issue by changing the port setting in ColdFusion Builder to the standard HTTP port (normally 80).

I also found this article which details the steps to setup ColdFusion debugging with Eclipse and it also has the port assigned to 80.

UPDATE:

Read this how-to article from Charlie Arehart. While it references older versions I think the same steps still apply and he mentions specific things that must be enabled on your ColdFusion server for it to work. Hope that helps.

Setting up ColdFusion Builder Step Debugging

And here is a video tutorial from Adobe's blog that steps you through the process as well.

    What messages/errors do you see in the ColdFusion log file? `C:\ColdFusion\ColdFusion9\logs` – Miguel-F Jul 30 '15 at 23:53

    Have you tried configuring the CF Builder debug port to `52000` (instead of `56815` as in your original question)? – Miguel-F Jul 31 '15 at 14:24

    Never mind my last comment. That RDS port needs to be your HTTP port as I specified in my answer (80). I have added another resource to my answer from Charlie Arehart. Please read that information on how to setup debugging. – Miguel-F Jul 31 '15 at 14:52
  • Yes, the article from Charlie Arehart was the solution(but please keep the other link as well :) Thanks alot!!! – Roland Jul 31 '15 at 15:49
