Cannot set breakpoint because 'main program must be generated '

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I was trying to debug a program SAPMZW01. But i am unable to set a breakpoint because it gives the info message - 'Main Program Must Be Generated'.

There was another query related to this in sdn but it relates to some other module and i am not able to fund the relavent note.

I am new to ABAP .

Kindly help.

Hi,

<li>I think you need to activate all the includes in the program before you set break point.

<li>Goto SE80->Right click on SAPMZW01->Activate - activate all selected includes.

Hi ESHA,

Some times it stucks with code activation so ones do it forcefully bypassing the warning for both main program and called program .

it will resolve your problem.

I also faced the same issue, where I wasn't able to set breakpoint and it said "Main Program XYZ Must Be Generated"

I later figured out that my refined method had a syntax error.

Once the error was resolved I was able to set the breakpoint.

Please check your code once and retry.

Thanks,

Saira

I also faced same issue. It was due to syntax errors in the program !!!

For me this was due to missing method implementation in quality system. Please check if all required TR's moved.
