<div>I have found this very difficult to do. The few times I've tried it, I ended up getting frustrated and giving it up.</div>

<div>What you need to do though is not look at it as how to debug Shibboleth, but how do I debug an web application with the tools I have. At the end of the day, Shibboleth is just another web application. So if you're using Eclipse and its embedded Tomcat,
then that's what you have to set up.</div>

I meant is to be able to step into the code, see the call stack, not only looking at logs. I know logs is one way, but if I could really debug the code it would be much more helpful and efficient. Can you tell me how do you usually debug the code?</span><br style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: -webkit-auto; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; ">
