Using IDEBUG on AIX 5.2

I am trying to run the interactive debugger locally on our new unix machine.
When I type idebug I get 'execute permission denied'. When I look at idebug in /usr/idebug it has all file permissions turned on. I have tried executing using root with the same results.

Anyone familar with idebug??

Thanks in advance.

NAME
observe - Runtime debugging output in TkCon SYNOPSIS
observe command cmdname ?maxlevel? observe cdelete cmdname observe cinfo cmdname observe variable varname operation ?args? observe vdelete varname operation observe vinfo varname DESCRIPTION
This command provides runtime debugging output for variables and commands without the need to edit your code. For variables, the underly- ing mechanism uses trace and dump var. For commands, it renames the observed procedure and uses a special wrapper procedure. WARNING: using this procedure after checkpointing state will result in major problems if you clean state because the renamed (true) commands will be lost. This procedure is experimental. Comments are encouraged. observe command cmdname ?maxlevel? This will create a wrapper command which prints out (using dump) the call stack to the console. maxlevel represents the maximum number of levels of the call stack which will be printed (defaults to 4). observe cdelete cmdname Removes the wrapper around an observed command. observe cinfo cmdname Prints out useless info. observe variable varname operation ?args? Currently a wrapper around trace that uses dump to print out the value of the named variable whenever the specified operation on that variable occurs (must be read, write or unset). observe vdelete varname operation Deletes the trace wrapper around the named variable. observe vinfo varname Prints out trace info about the named variable.
