I think the debug agent is missing.  I use something like this

java7 -Xss450k -agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n \
    -cp /scratch/kawa/:/opt/java/current/lib/tools.jar kawa.repl  \
    -e '(begin (require "swank-kawa.scm") (create-swank-server 4005))'

The -agentlib argument starts the debug agent.  The -Xss450k increases
the stack size (apparently I'm the only one who needs that).  Also make
sure that the version of tools.jar matches the version of the jvm.
Occasionaly I have to add -s to suppress Kawa's listener window.
