Hi

I have a cobol webservice called from a java application that needs to work with vsam files on cics

the link call works and the cics program works too but at the end the control does not returns to the webservice

no error founds on logs or trace

even the java application doesn't receive any exception but an empty (not null) response

the webservice is compilated in MF dialect but the cics is OS390 because the vsam are in ebcdic.

any help?

Thanks

OK

found by myself that it doesn't come back in debug mode but it does in execution.

any suggestion on how to do a complete debug??

It's not clear to me from your post what you mean by "debug mode" or "a complete debug".

You will probably need to debug your CICS program separately from the rest of your application. Web services are loosely coupled to the clients that invoke them, so debugging across web service invocations requires coordinating multiple processes. While this is possible, it is difficult.

Your web service invocation may be failing when you debug the CICS program because the client is timing out while waiting for a response. You'll have to consult the documentation for the Java API you're using to see how to increase that timeout.
