3: After creating new debug configuration follow the given steps:

3.1: In “Main” tab under “Project”, select the “server” project or folder (in which Openerp Server resides) from your workspace.

3.2: Write location of ‘openerp-server’ under “Main Module”.

Ex: ${workspace_loc:server/openerp-server}.

3.3: In “Arguments” tab under “Program Arguments”, click on button “Variables” and new window will appear.

3.4: Then create new “Variable” by clicking on “Edit Variables” button and new window will appear.

3.5: Press on “New” button and give your addons path as value.
