Re: RDi 9.5 "not responding"

Hi Edmund,

I am not using the format of SQLRPGLE option at the moment (I was having issues with it behaving differently depending on what I selected, if you remember). In answer to your other post I am not using Turnover or formatting SQL with the new option.

I haven't opened a PMR yet because I wanted to get a bit more detail about what is actually going on. My post that started this thread was intended to just find out if I can tell what actually is unresponsive when RDi says it is... On advice of Buck, and with some tips from Darren and Kenneth, I am waiting for the next unresponsive state while having Task Manager and the Processes view running all the time. So far I have not had the problem, but I've not used RDi much since I created a new workspace yesterday, so I am not sure whether the problem has gone or it is just waiting and hiding in the long grass.

If we get more information we'll get a PMR to you.


-Paul.

Paul,
There is one known issue which causes that symptom and it happens when doing a Source->Format of SQLRPGLE. Is it possible that you saw this hang when click on any menu item after doing format of RPGLE with embedded SQL?
If so there is a test fix that will address this if you open a PMR.

Ken,
I believe you already have the test fix. Have you see your "Not Responding" symptom since applying that test fix?

Thanks
Edmund

The only plugin I have is iSphere (latest release). I just had the issue again while trying to create a new workspace through the File>Switch Workspace option.

I've created a new empty workspace now, but haven't used RDi enough since to see if the problem is gone yet.

Are you running any plug-ins, such as change management interfaces?

I got approximately EIGHT "Not Responding" yesterday, and opened a PMR# #
54653,442,000 - RDI 9.5 has continual Milky-White-Screen-of-Death (Not
Responding)

And while I was talking to IBM support last night. Our other developer who works remotely, approx. 5-hour drive sent me this plea:

************** SNIPPET ****************
Are you having any issues with RDI when debugging?

Since last Thursday, I keep getting (Not Responding) when I try to debug....

I have to end it thru task manager.... Then reload... then debug again...

Sniff sniff......
************** SNIPPET ****************

IBM Support *suggested* that I create a new workspace, and to turn off Update outline view...

PS. Sadly, there is NO WAY to DUPLICATE this. So I have to manually kill RDI and JAVAW.EXE in task manager, before restarting...

I was able to duplicate the Error 3-times on my PC, but the IBM Tech did not get the "Not Responding"...

And of course, I also lose my code changes.

Oh well, new workspace is working for now. This is the 3rd workspace I have created, since installing RDI 9.5 <sigh>

I guess the policy should be to create a new workspace, when you get the "Not Responding"... <frown>

Check the Progress view to see if there is something running that prevents you from using RDi at a given moment. I have had numerous occasions where things stop working because it is running "Initializing Projects", sometimes for several minutes (and other times it only takes several seconds). If you don't see anything, try this: In the drop down on the Progress view, select Preferences, and check the "Show sleeping and system operations". This might give you some more insight into what is causing RDi to be non-responsive, for example, a process is running that is preventing other processes from running. Not a guarantee it will help in your situation, but as everyone's install of RDi will be different, it might be the key to understanding what is happening.

Hi,

My colleague and I are getting an unresponsive RDi (9.5) at least twice a day, and we need to kill it to start again. I've looked in the workspace .log file, but there are no error messages showing.

It usually happens after selecting an item in a menu, but it doesn't matter which menu or which item. My most recent event was caused by right-clicking my connection and clicking the export option, and my colleagues most recent event happened after clicking the compile menu and selecting one of the compile options.

I'm guessing it is more an eclipse problem than RDi because the menus are not always related to RDi functionality. How can I find out what was causing the unresponsive behaviour? (The error can not be reproduced at
will.)


-Paul.
