Cound not run org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Elasticsearch(v8.12.0) directly in Intellij Idea

[Henkel]

Hi guys:
with elasticsearch version 7.16.0, I can run org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Elasticsearch directly in Intellij Idea.The configuration of Intellij Idea is as follows：

However, with elasticsearch version 8.12.0, I found it didn't work.
It seems to be blocked in the following code：

            //org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Elasticsearch#initPhase1
            var in = new InputStreamStreamInput(System.in);
            args = new ServerArgs(in);

Is there something I am not configured correctly?

Hi Henkel,

I'm somewhat surprised this ever worked, it certainly wasn't intentional. The developer docs describe the way we expect folks to run an Elasticsearch node in a debugger:

If you want to run and debug Elasticsearch from your IDE, the ./gradlew run task supports a remote debugging option. Run the following from your terminal:

./gradlew run --debug-jvm

Next start the "Debug Elasticsearch" run configuration in IntelliJ. This will enable the IDE to connect to the process and allow debug functionality.

(also we're not all guys here )
