Hi Gary,
As to whether it is a "$ option" is a question that gets a "maybe" kind of 
answer..
I think it is no additional charge if you have purchased some other WDS 
option (i.e. a compiler(s) ) for the machine but if you have not purchased 
any part of WDS then it may cost.  But take this all with a hefty dose of 
salt (or salt substitute as the case may be) as I'm far removed from sales 
;) 
Here is a big long URL to get you to the product help about debugging with 
SEP's.  I really do think that you will be a lot more productive using 
SEP's than struggling along with STRDBG directly.

like the line "pause the video I'll wait" ;)
The videos are for WDSC but the flow is the same for RDP...
Happy Debugging,

Mike,
Yes, we are missing 5770WDS Option 60 (I see Options 44,45)
Am I correct thinking Option 60 is a "$ option" ?
I made one attempt to use SEP but did not get anywhere; resorted to 
STRDBG.
I printed some of the help and will try again when the alligators are 
distracted.
That's it from this of the swamp - thank you and the Rational Team for the 
great
product/great support!

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 ?
