external debugging other user's process does not work

Hello experts,

For some reason external debugging other user's process does not work in our system. I don't know why. All I did was go to Utilities->Settings->Debugging and set the user to the desired user to run the process. I tried turning on/off all options "Only Current Applciation Server", "Classic/New Debugger", and "Session Breakpoint Active Immediately". I've already set session and external BPs and it shows that the BP is active for the desired user. But no matter what, that user's process does not open a debugger for my user. I'm using 1 workstation for both users (not sure if this has any impact).

What else can I check or have to do? In transaction SRDEBUG, developer is set to "my user" and the user is set to "desired user".

Thanks,

Jack

An important question is does it work with your own user? If no, then it may be many causes (update debug, tRFC, RFC with other user, etc.) If yes, then maybe the user type is incorrect (it should be dialog or service).

It may also be related to where the breakpoint is set, if it's in a system program, then the system debug must be used (activation is user-dependent ; moreover, SICF menu may be used to activate the system user debug for another user).
