Java debugger is broken

I'm running latest Arch (pacman -Syu) and openjdk6. In both Netbeans and jgrasp IDEs, the debugger does not work. I get a transport error 202: connection refused message when I try to debug. I've tried installing Sun's jdk, but I get the same error. java, javac, and jdb are all symlinked in /usr/bin (which is in my $PATH); I thought this might be a problem, so I added the actual directory of each of those binarys to the beginning of the path (so that it is checked before /usr/bin), but that didn't seem to do any good.

Any idea what I could be doing wrong? I had the debugger working on an old install of Arch as well as Ubuntu 8.10... I don't know what I could have done to bork it.

This isn't really a solution but more of a suggestion if you are on "x86_64": http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=22264

I had been using OpenJDK6 and the Iceadtea plugin and was basically happy with it for Arch64. Then after Sun Java started to support 64bit I un-installed the "openjdk6" package and then installed the AUR "jre_beta 6u12_b03-1" package.....

Now I was finally able to use Photobucket.com's java applet for bulk uploading.
