When i try to debug my webapp it starts up the tomcat server and the application, but shuts down the debugger shortly before the app gets usable. I see the debugging toolbar for a second before it vanishes again, though the app keeps running.

You should see if the TC server is still in debug mode. The easiest way to do that is to Debug->Attach Debugger to localhost;11555. If it is still running ‘debuggable’, you will be able to do a fair bit of debugging that way.
