Debugging a Transformation

[Former Member]

Greetings to All,

Does anyone know how to run a BW 7.0 transformation through a debugger?

Here's the situation:

I have a transformation with an InfoSet as its source and a cube as its target. When I run the transformation in dev, it completes successfully. When I run the transformation in our QA environment, it fails with a runtime error of

"ASSIGN_TYPE_CONFLICT". Is there some way that I can run the transformation through a debugger in the QA environment, so I can see what's happening?

Many thanks!

Regards,

To debug a transformation, you have to create a Data Transfer Process (DTP), and choose on the 'Execute' tab strip the Processing Mode 'Serially in Dialog Process (for debugging)'. You can then specify where the system should stop for debugging.

Hope it helps.
