Has anybody else had problems setting a SEP on a *SRVPGM (vs. *PGM)?

When I

try to do *SRVPGM's it doesn't seem to work. The crazy part is that I

can't

remember if it ever did work. Can anybody confirm?

Thanks,

Could someone please let me know what I'm doing wrong here? Thanks!

Should I not try and run interactive commands? Or is there a better

way

to run them without using STRRSESVR?

In my opinion, if you need to use a green screen utility (maybe

WRKACTJOB or

whatever) then use an emulator. If you want a GUI for those types of
functions, use iNav.

If you're debugging a green screen program, you use Service Entry Points

to

set the initial breakpoint on the program, and then you run it from the
green screen like you normally would. i5/OS traps the call, suspends

the

job, and transfers control to WDSC, at which point you can debug it like

you

normally would.

It's really the cat's pajamas. <grin>

Some people don't use this because you can't set an SEP on a non-ILE
program. I wonder, though, if you can use an ILE wrapper and then step

into

the non-ILE programs. I haven't tried that.
