Re: RDi Error Message

Doug,

I believe that RDI cannot debug 27+ year old OPM/RPG-III/RPG-400.
Just convert it to RPGLE, recompile and then try debug again. That should work.
RDI cannot debug RPG-II either, that is over 40 years. That was before my time. :P

I do it all the time with CLP, I change the type to CLLE, recompile, and then I can debug in RDI!

Subject: [WDSCI-L] RDi Error Message

All,

Had a co-worker just start using RDi and debug and he came up with an error message I don't understand:

"Server: CPF9584 OPM program P5547052 cannot be added to ILE debug environment. Program P5547052 in library WRDTST cannot be added to the ILE debug environment because it does not contain OPM source debug data."

Firstly it is not an ILE program, so why did it try and debug it under ILE? Secondly, he told me it was compiled with Debug source data, so why did RDi tell him it had none. Lastly, he was able to go to a GS session and debug it with STRDBG.

I had him go through the steps that I take with debugging an OPM, i.e. use the Debug Configuration, point it to my active jobs, apply and debug. I checked and it is an OPM with all observable information. Not sure what to check next.
