Troubleshooting

Trace only one requestor session per operator and node

Do not attempt to start the Tracer when another requestor session on the same PRPC node, using the same Operator ID, is running the Tracer.

Turn Off HTTP compression

Ordinarily, PRPC uses HTTP compression to reduce the length of text messages sent to Internet Explorer. HTTP compression is also used in SOAP messages. This may complicate Tracer debugging, as it is difficult to interpret the messages.
