need help in debugging, getting "Catastroph ic failure" message

I'm running VS.net on my PC (W2K) connected to a remote IIS server
(W2K)
SP4 that is not a domain controller. I've got the ASPNET and IWAM
accounts in the "Impersonat e a client after authentication" user rights

on the server. I'm in the local admins and debuggers groups. When
trying to debug, I'm getting the:

Error while trying to run project: Unable to start debugging on
the web server. Catastrophic failure

error, and I've seen other questions in this group with the same
problem and I've tried the solutions recommended there without success.
On the VS install on the server, under "server components\remo te
debugger I've got full remote debugging, not native. I've got DEBUG
under the allowverbs section of urlscan.ini

I've gone through the recommendations in the article:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...ary/en-us/vsde...
Should I check the DCOM settings - and if so, how? I've seen
references to an RPCPing tool, but couldn't find it -- would it be
worth getting that tool? What port(s) does debugging use?

Thanks in advance for any help or advice.

Joe

This function loads info from a binary data file, then loads objects (currently 23 in the test file). Here is the loading function: bool UnitDefLoad(char* sFile) { UnitDefCleanList(false); // tested. This works. int iUnitCount = 0; UNIT_DEF uData; // Theses objects are read from file ifstream fin(sFile,ios::binary); if (!fin)

Admitedly a very open-ended question but here goes ... Why so may "Connection failure" error messages when my Access 2K users are executing stored procedures that contain UPDATE or INSERT statements?

Hello, I have an ASP .Net Web Application running fine on 1 Web server. I cannot seem to get a copy of it to run on a 2nd Web server.

Are there steps that I need to take beyond simply copying all of the VS.Net2003 Project/Application files...

I know that I have posted this question before, but it is still unresolved and I don't know where to turn to next. I have code that is creating a user (works fine), then sets the account flags (works fine) and then sets the password (fails). Here is the pertinent information: Ex.InnerException.Message: Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password. Ex.Message: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.

Hi all, I'm using System.Net.Mail (Framework 2.0) to send emails on scheduled basis. This works great on Windows 2000 server. Rently we have upgraded our servers to Windows 2003. Since then some of the emails are failing from being sent to people. Ratio is like 1 in 30 are being failing, I thought it is the mail size issue and I have unchecked the mail size limit on SMTP server. Still I couldn't figure out why few are not going out.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
