Breakpoints are crossed out, how can I make them valid?

i got a tricky one:

look At Breakpoints, they are crossed out!

I can't set valid breakpoints. Not in Tests, neither in my Java Classes. I searched Stackoverflow and google, but I couldn't find anybody with the same problem.

I'm using STS(x86) and Maven.

Edit: It may seem confusing but I solved it by myself. I have to go Run-> Skip all Breakpoints (it was set, and I wonder how it was set, because I didn't do it)

You should already be in debug perspective. If not just go to debug perspective. You should see disable all breakpoints button. -

enter image description here

Click on it and it should allow all breakpoints.

When you click on 'skip all breakpoints'(which is selected), everything will become normal

The shortcut key for placing a breakpoint in Eclipse (Ctrl + Shift + B) is quite similar to the one that skips all the breakpoint (Ctrl + Alt + B). Hence, if a "skip all breakpoints" condition is to be cancelled, it can be achieved by pressing "Ctrl + Alt + B" again.

There is a menu entry you have discovered for yourself that toggles the skipping of all breakpoints. There is also an icon for this in the "Breakpoints" View, and there may be a hot-key defined as well, all of which you may have triggered by accident.

Take a look at the Run -> Skip All Breakpoints.

1) Run => Skip all breakpoints. 2) Run => remove all break points.

and then your debugger wont show cross sign and will keep debugging your app.
