Error description
IBM Developer for Z/OS - IDz While using IDz with the user interface in a language other than English, on the Debug perspective, z/OS Debugger Profiles view, if the user tries to create a CICS debug profile, the Region field is required and shows a drop-down list with the CICS regions defined on the host. After selecting the desired CICS on the Region field, and filling the profile name, if the user tries to save and activate the profile, the error message CRRDG9103E is presented saying "A CICS region must be specified". The message is presented using the language specified for the user interface. In this case, the validation for required fields is considering the Region field is still missing a value, even though it is populated, and this only happens when the IDz user interface is in a language other than English.
Local fix
As a workaround, the user can create the profile using the CICS transaction DTCN. Or change the IDz user interface to English.
