When the EQAUEDAT exit is compiled with V5+, the debugger does not come up in the Terminal Interface Manager (TIM), and the output only shows EQAUEDAT messages.
Local fix
Compile EQAUEDAT with COBOL V4

Problem conclusion
COBOL Runtime incorrectly designates the EQAUEDAT exit (which is written in COBOL) as the COBOL main program. This interferes with the processing later when the real user COBOL main program starts within the debugging section, preventing the user program from being recognized by the Debugger. COBOL Runtime has been corrected to address the problem. Also refer to PH28745 for relevant information.
