• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SHTTP090 - Breakpoint was set for external debugging (&1 &2&3 &4) ?

  The SAP error message SHTTP090 indicates that a breakpoint has been set for external debugging in the SAP system. This typically occurs when a developer or user has activated debugging for a specific program or transaction, and the system is halting execution at that breakpoint.
  Cause:
  
  Breakpoint Set: A breakpoint has been intentionally set in the ABAP code for debugging purposes. This can happen if a developer is trying to troubleshoot an issue in the code.
  External Debugging: The message specifically refers to external debugging, which means that the debugger is being invoked from an external source, such as an external debugger or a remote system.
  Unintentional Breakpoint: Sometimes, breakpoints can be left in the code unintentionally, especially if the developer forgets to remove them after debugging.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Remove Breakpoints:
  
  If you have access to the ABAP Workbench (SE80 or SE38), you can check for and remove any breakpoints that have been set in the code.
  Use transaction SE80 or SE38 to navigate to the program and check for breakpoints.
  You can also use transaction SE37 (Function Builder) or SE24 (Class Builder) to check for breakpoints in function modules or classes.
  
  
  
  Debugging Settings:
  
  If you are not the developer, inform the responsible developer to check and remove any unnecessary breakpoints.
  If you are in a production environment, ensure that debugging is not enabled unless necessary, as it can affect performance and user experience.
  
  
  
  Check User Settings:
  
  Sometimes, user-specific settings can lead to breakpoints being activated. Check your user profile settings in transaction SU01 to ensure that no debugging options are enabled that could cause this issue.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  If you are unsure about how to proceed, consult SAP documentation or reach out to your SAP Basis or development team for assistance.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Debugging in SAP: Understanding how debugging works in SAP can help you manage breakpoints effectively. Familiarize yourself with the debugging tools available in the ABAP Workbench.
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues related to debugging and error messages. Sometimes, specific versions of SAP may have bugs that are documented in SAP Notes.
  System Performance: Be cautious when enabling debugging in production systems, as it can impact performance and lead to unexpected behavior.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the SHTTP090 error and continue with your work in the SAP system.
