Re: I'm having trouble with RDi and Windows 11

Hi Mark

You can use SEP debugging on 5250 - years ago I think I posted in these lists my "17 easy steps" for doing that - it's really not all that bad!  :)

In fact, I googled for that and found a reply post from you to me in 2012 at https://archive.midrange.com/rpg400-l/201208/msg00068.html#google_vignette - in my post I have the link to how to do this.

Man, just how old are we? And still having a good time, right?  :)

I would have to re-learn how to do that. SEP debugging has spoilt me

If you have the license, go 9.8.  You won't be disappointed.

I haven't done debugging with VS Code code4i.  It requires additional

open

ports and setup on the server, which isn't done where I work.

We are still using RDi 9.6. I just got a new Windows 11 laptop, and I'm
having trouble installing RDi 9.6 on it.

    - The single user install does nothing unless I install as an admin

    - The Admin install appears to work, and I can apply the license

pack,

    but when I try to connect to a host, the dialog appears, but it is
empty.


Is the only option to upgrade to 9.8?

What about VS Code? how does it's debug compare to SEP in RDi. (That

was

a

game changer for me)?
