New ABAP debugger going into infinite loop after pressing /h

Hi All,

Developers have reported one issue in our development system. When anyone tries to start debugging by /h; it goes into infinite loop and exits after maximum time out limit. This issue reported in ECC development system which is an EHP4 system; patch level 8 of 701.

The same is working fine in the QA and production system. But facing issue in development system only. Please advise how to resolve this.

Thanks

Hi,

One more thing noticed with the time out errors in system while trying to debug. We noticed run time errors "Debugging Impossible" . It says maximum number of WPs in debugging has been reached. The value of rdisp/wpdbug_max_no is st to 1. Same is set in other systems. But its working fine there. Dump details are given below:

"Short text

ABAP programs cannot currently be debugged.

What happened?

The running program is supposed to be debugged by the ABAP Debugger (for

example, by a BREAK-POINT statement).

Since you are in a production system or client (table T000), you can

only jump to the ABAP Debugger if the work process is able to switch to

debugging mode.

The maximum number or work processes in debugging mode has already been

reached, however, which means that debugging is not currently possible.

Error analysis

This runtime error is expected in certain situations and no further

analysis is required.

Dialog work processes that are running in debugging mode are assigned

exclusively to a single user, which protects the user context from the

process being switched. In general, however, users contexts that are

waiting for user input are rolled out of the old work process and

prepared to be rolled in to another work process. This requires a COMMIT

WORK.

Work processes that are in debugging mode cannot be used by other users.

This reduces the amount of free dialog work processes, which affects

system performance. This is why there is a maximum number of work

processes in this state in each system.

Only if this runtime error starts occurring frequently do you need to

check why so many dialog work processes are in debugging mode in this

system.

Hi

The error got resolved after increasing value of parameter rsdb/ntab/entrycount and restarting system.

Thanks,
