Debugging your application(s) on the container

The hints above to start the container in debug mode would obviously also allow you to debug your application(s) running on that container.

Nevertheless, what you might experience is that your application's log levels do not follow what you defined as container log level. Sadly, there is little Codehaus Cargo can do in this case: you will have to look into your application's distribution, and find existing logger definitions, to update them.
