Hi,  
I am unable to set the watch point for a variable in the debugger.

It says “No Symbolic Information for PRG1” while opening the debugger.

I am able to set up the break point but not able to set up the watch variable, which i want to track thru the flow of the program.

Could anyone help me out with this issue?

Have you tried turning SYMGEN to ON in NATPARM and restowing the program?

Hi,

I encountered the same some days ago even when the SYMGEN is ON !!! I restowed several times my programs but result unchanged. However, it suddenly worked after lunch. I don’t know why.

It was when trying to debug under SPoD my programs residing in remote UNIX machine.

It’s just a wild guess: Maybe this problem has to deal with the Bufferpool. Just try to turn it off by setting BPSFI to OFF in your Natural Parameter Module.
