Upgrading to 2.9.0 will force removing support for classic dev mode. Actually, classic dev mode stopped working (for Ovirt) already in version 2.8.1 (April 2017). Blocking issue has been closed with status "wontfix" because classic dev mode has been deprecated (details [1]). Tests on version 2.9.0 have confirmed that nothing changed here. Errors directly blocking debug session: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class com.google.gwt.dom.client.Style$Unit at org.gwtbootstrap3.client.ui.base.ComplexWidget.setMarginLeft(ComplexWidget.java:177 java.lang.IncompatibleClassChangeError: Type com.google.gwt.user.client.Event$NativePreviewEvent is not a nest member of com.google.gwt.user.client.Event: current type is not listed as a nest member at com.google.gwt.user.client.Event$.fireNativePreviewEvent(Event.java:480) [1] https://github.com/gwtproject/gwt/issues/9522
