I'm trying to use DOSBox with debug.exe on a 64-bit system. It works perfectly fine if I enter the commands manually. When I redirect input from a file with:
debug < [file]
it doesn't work. On every line except for the first it displays an error similar to this:
DOSBox will eventually hang and crash. Is there any way to fix this?
The input file I am trying to process as commands is:
a 100
jmp 145
db 'Hello, World!', 0D, 0A, 'Press any key to continue . . .$'
a 145
mov ah, 09
mov dx, 102
int 21
mov ah, 08
int 21
int 20
rcx
100
n hello.com
w
q

I can reproduce the behavior you are seeing in this scenario:
DOSBox 0.74 on Windows and Linux
DEBUG.EXE from Windows XP copied to DOSBox
DEBUG.EXE from various versions of MS-DOS will cause problem including unexpected hangs. See this Stackoverflow question for another related problem.
I found a version of DEBUG.COM from FreeDOS that works as expected. I have made DEBUG.COM available for download from my website. Alternatively you can download the ZIP File from Softpedia and extract DEBUG.COM.
When I run DEBUG.COM I get this:
S:\>debug.com

0BFB:0102 db 'Hello, World!', 0D, 0A, 'Press any key to continue . . .$'
