Re: Debug As > Interactive Error CPD0160

Hi Gary,

The symptoms that you describe indicate that WDS option 60 is missing

You can check to make sure that PTFs that RDP relies upon are installed by
doing the following:

-Start RDP
-Expand the connection to your IBM i in the Remote Systems view.
-Right-click on "Objects" and select the "Verify Connection..." action.
This will open a Verify Connection dialogue.
-When the verify completes expand *all* the twisties and it will tell you
if anything is missing or servers not started

What is most important in your case is that WDS option 60 is installed and
that the debugger PTF is current. If the RTC PTF(s) are not installed or
current only matters if you are using RTC and the port 4300 callback at
the bottom only matters if you are going to use the STRRSESVR for
interactive stuff. If you are debugging ILE then using the Service Entry
Point (SEP) method to initiate a debug session is by far superior to using
STRRSESVR (IMHO anyway).

Just my CDN$0.02 - and now we don't have pennies any more, is worth $0.00
in any currency...

Attempting to start Debug from RDP 8.0.3

From a 5250 session: I start the debugger server using STRDBGSVR

In LPEX editor I set breakpoints

From Remote Systems view I right-click the program object,

and select Debug As > Interactive

I get a dialog window:
No interactive job associated with this connection.

From a 5250 session: I enter STRRSESVR NAME(myConnection)

This raises error CPD0160 - Program QRSEMAIN not found in library
QDEVTOOLS

I see in Midrange archives that we need: 5722WDS (Option 50, Feature 5050)

Is there anything else I should ask my operations manager to install ?
