How to remotely debug in Chrome Developer tools
- Run the Chrome instance that you will be debugging remotely with the remote debugging command line switch:
chrome.exe --remote-debugging-port=9222 --user-data-dir=remote-profile
. It is essential that you use a different instance of Chrome for the remote session and that is why we run it with the--user-data-dir argument
- Navigate to the pages you intend to debug
- Now run a regular (client) Chrome instance and navigate to
http://localhost:9222
there
You can setup an SSH tunnel in order to debug remotely.
On the source machine execute:
`ssh -L 0.0.0.0:9223:localhost:9222 localhost -N `
Then on the other machine point Chrome browser to http://source-machine-ip:9223
