Hi people,

I have a little problem.

I put 1 break-point in my abap program, but I need debug this program when it is running in background and I need that Stop in this break-point. It's possible ?

Another question is: Is possible occurs Time Out in a program running in background ?

tks,

Flavio Ferreira

Hi!

You might try out SM50 transaction to stop the scheduled program's run.

Time-out can not occur during background. But there could be exceptions, short dumps, which could break your program's run.

There a no. of ways to debug the background job as mentioned in above posts. 1 more way is to go to SM50 Txn and find your background job of Type 'BGD'. Check that process and go to Program/Session ->Program -> Debugging.

You can not debug a program which is running in background but once the job is completed in sm37 select the job and type JDBG at command box, the job will go in debug mode and show you how it was executed.

BACKGROND PROGRAMS:you can debug the background jobs, use the command BDUG

One way of debuging programs which are already running in background is via transaction SM50. This displays a

list of process running in the server. In order to debug the program go to Menu option:

Program/Mode~~>Program~~>Debugging.
