[former_member301120]

Hello to all,

how can I debug a WD4A application.

If I set an external breakpoint in SE80 the requested application dumps.

Hi Christian,

Can you please tell me how did you update the Kernel.

As am getting the same dump from last 2 weeks and am unable to find a solution.

We have recently upgraded Web Dynpro configuration in our system.

Hello

I've updated the abab kernel in the default way, as usual.

Hello,

I have never came across this kind of issue like just setting a external break point in SE80 code results in a dump.

I think this is the only way to debug the WD4A to put a breakpoint in code in se80.

May be some one has came across this issue before will come up with the answer.

Thanks

Hello

we get a SYSTEM_CORE_DUMPED

The current ABAP "CL_HTTP_UTILITY===============CP" program had to be  
terminated because the ABAP processor detected an internal system error.

Can you post some more details of the dump? However this isn't looking good. That's pretty low level that the error is coming from. You may need to simply enter a support ticket.

After setting an external breakpoint, the application hangs when starting.

Removing the breakpoint fixes the problem and everything runs quite good.

I'll open a oss ticket and post the result

Hello to all,

I've updated the kernel to the lastest version. That fixed the problem.

What are the details of the dump? Are you sure the dump is caused by the breakpoint? Generally you should be able to set an external break point and when hit the SAPGUI will launch with the debugger running. A few more details on your situation will probably be needed in order for someone to help you.
