-debugalert isn't working

[carootje]

I added in my startup.pf the "-debugalert" but it isn't working. Does anybody know why? Did i forgot something?

De startup.pf:
-cpinternal ISO8859-1
-cpstream ISO8859-1
-cpcoll Basic
-cpcase Basic
-d dmy
-numsep 46
-numdec 44
-debugalert

Thanx!

win xp, oe10b
it works for me ???

message "hello world" view-as alert-box
should show up with an added help button
which would show you the stack trace and a debug button

if it does, it's doing what's it supposed to do
if the debugger doesn't work make sure it's enabled

to enable the debugger
run proenv from your openedge menu
and in the command prompt type proDebugEnable -enable-all

also make sure the client, appbuilder or whatever shortcut
doesn't point to a different pf file i.e. -pf <filename>

i'd also try explicitly specifying that startup.pf file
we are talking about the startup.pf in the %dlc% directory right ?

Try putting -debugalert on the command line rather than contained within the .PF file.

ASSIGN SESSIONEBUG-ALERT = TRUE NO-ERROR.

in the very first procedure will work too.
