Hi,
I am running v1.1.4322 on Win2K server and unable to debug a ASP.Net
application running locally, using a full URL (ie www.mysite.com).
When I hit F5, I get the following error message:
<debugger_error _message>
Error while trying to run project: Unable to start debugging on the
web server.
The project is not configured to be debugged.
</debugger_error_ message>
This error is decribed in
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;EN-US;306156, which
states that this error can occur because:
- The ASP.NET Application does not have a Web.Config file.
- The Execute Permissions property for the current project folder in
Internet Services Manager is set to None.
Naturally, this is the first thing I checked and sure enought, my
application has both a Web.Config file and Execute permissions for my
site is set 'Scripts Only'. I elevated permissions to 'Scripts and
Executables' which made no difference.
This problem has been discussed before, and I have followed the advice
of numerous postings, including:
1). I have checked the project's web.config file and the debug
attribute is set to true:
<compilation debug="true" />
2). I have URLScan Installed, so I have modified urlscan.ini to
include:
[AllowVerbs]
DEBUG
[AllowExtensions]
.aspx
.asmx
3). I have reinstalled ASP.NET by running:
"C:\WINNT\Micro soft.NET\Framew ork\v1.1.4322\a spnet_regiis.ex e" -i
4). In Internet Services Manager under the 'Home Directory' tab, I
have checked that the .aspx expension is correctly mapped to
C:\WINNT\Micros oft.NET\Framewo rk\v1.1.4322\as pnet_isapi.dll and note
that the verbs GET,HEAD,POST,D EBUG are permitted.
5). Also under the 'Home Directory' tab, selecting the 'Configuration'
button and 'App Debugging' tab, I have checked 'Enable ASP Serer Side
debugging'.
6). Also in Internet Services Manager under the Directory Security
tab, I have checked that the Authentication Methods, Anonymous Access
and Integrated Windows Authentication are selected.
7). I have checked that my user account is a member of the Debugger
Users group. I am also a member of the Administrators group.
8). Right clicking on my project, and selecting the Properties ->
Configuration Properties -> Debugging, I have checked that 'APS.Net
Debugging' is checked, 'Always use Internet Explorer when debugging
web pages' is ticked and the 'Start URL' is the default page in my
site (ie 'http://www.mysite.com/login.aspx').
9). Also, under 'Configuration Properties -> Debugging', the 'Active
Solution Configuration' for all assembilies in my project is set for
debug.
10). I have restarted IIS by running iisreset.exe.
A few things I havn't implemented (because the instructions were
vauge) include:
A MSDN article helpfully suggested that I:
"Start the application without debugging. (From the Debug menu, choose
Start Without Debugging.) Attach to the appropriate IIS process or
worker process. By default, inetinfo.exe for ATL Server applications
or aspnet_wp.exe for ASP.NET applications. Use the following
procedures to determine which process an ASP.NET or ATL Server
application runs under. To check which process an ASP.NET application
runs under". No advice on how I go about attaching an appropriate IIS
process or worker process, so I have been unable to check this.
Another helpful MSDN article suggested that I check:
"Does the machine running IIS server have Visual Studio .NET Remote
Components installed?". How would I know and where would I get '.NET
Remote Components'?
Please, please help. This is driving me nuts.
Thanks,
Stephen
