Suggest you talk with whoever supports Changeman on your system.
Have a good one

Change-Man is a version control tool and not a debug tool, so what do you mean by "debug compile"? Did you mean, you've compiled the code using change-man so that you can debug it later using some debugger? If this is not the case, your sentence does not make much sense to me, specially the bold text.

Which debug too do you use? If it's Xpeditor, you need to "new copy" the program once in CICS region and have to have an entry in DDIO to debug the program. If it is not Xpeditor, tell us what is it?

I use DTCN(IBM Debug tool). In changeman when we compile a program there is an option Debug compile, by selecting the Debug Compile as Y we will be able to see the Program Source code in DTCN debug tool.
My issue is, though am giving debug compile option as Y am not able to see the Program in Debug.

you regardless which debugger that you use,

there must be a source library for DTCN.
there is a way to refresh this library with the newly generated module.
your system, your site,
start asking questions of your support group, co-workers, boss
even if it displays the fact that you have probably lied about your experience.

newly generated (compile/link/bind) module must be NEW copied
CEMT SET PROG(pgmname) NEW
otherwise, the old loadmodule is not there.

Well, the best place to get an answer for this kind of question is your Site-Support, as have been mentioned earlier. Please start in that direction.
