Re: System Debugger

You need to see the program is being run with the same user ID you
specified when starting the debugger. If the user profiles do not match, it
will not stop.
I also put the first executable statement in the program as a breakpoint.
Then change the properties of the breakpoint to be the SEP. Then run the
program. You can test it on a simple program.
You can also call the program from the debugger if you can do that. If you
are trying to debug something like a production job, you need to get the
set up of the break points correct. As you are on PUB400, it is not a
production job so change the debug setting to allow you to call the program
in the debugger, if it is not an interactive job.
When you start debug, check the first option, "Submit and Debug program in
batch job".
If you are doing an interactive job, Select "debug an existing job on
system". Go down to the Existing job box. Click browse. It will display all
jobs. Enter your user profile in the user portion of the search box. Leave
job and job number = All.  Click Search. Then double click on your session
in the panel below and call your program from the command line or menu.That
should work.
