Hi Gary,
When installing, if you used the Windows Unzip utility, it's possible that it could not restore all objects because the path names are too long. In our install instructions we ask users to use 7-Zip or another utility. If Windows unzip is the tool available, then placing it in a very short named location may work. IE Unzip into c:\.
If this isn't the case, please contact IBM Support so we can help you.
Thanks!

Subject: Error when selecting Service Entry Points view
Hello,
I'm on Version 9.8, but I've been unable to use Service Entry Points for debugging because I receive the error below when I try to select the view:
![](https://dw1.s81c.com//IMWUC/MessageImages/e9597755d3484a659fe1f268fb94748e.png)
These debug-related plugins are currently in my RDi plugin folder:
![](https://dw1.s81c.com//IMWUC/MessageImages/964497758beb45c08c3c89dbc6dd2bd7.png)
Does anyone know if there's an additional plugin that should be in the folder?
I was unable to attach the log to my post, but I've copied what seem to be relevant entries below.
Thanks in advance
