GOAL:

How to use dbx to determine the general nature of what a hung process is doing.

FACT(s) (Environment):

UNIX
Progress/OpenEdge Versions

FIX:

On Unix Systems where dbx has been installed confirm that dbx -a <pid> is the correct command for the installed version of dbx to attach to a process by the identified PID (Process ID #).

The command to attach is typically:
dbx -a <pid #>

If the connection is successful, the prompt should change to dbx>
The command to get a stack trace from the process in memory is:
where

Save the output of the where for review at a later time.

VERY IMPORTANT!!
The command to detach is typically:
detach

If working with Technical Support, send the output from the where to Technical Support.
