BEx crashes when changing variable values

Question

Hi all,
We're having a problem with BEx.
It crashes when trying to change variable values.
We've been looking into syslogs and dev logs and so on,
and found that the cpic connection has been disconnected
before the crash. BUT we cannnot find out what is actually
disconnecting the session.
Well, at least F/W wasn' the cause. Have check the logs.
Any ideas? Thx in advance!

Just FYI.
After all, we ended up applying BEx addon patch 9.
The problem about the BEx crash seemed to be fixed in patch 8, but another problem (I heard it was about something to do with report jump function) was not fixed. As a result, we skipped patch 8 and applied 9.
Both problems were fixed in patch 9.
Many thanks to SDN informations.
