(2000) Unable to connect to debugger

[Jeppe Jespersen]

On my development maching, I have three different SQL Server instances:

..\SQL2000
..\SQL2005EXPRESS
..\SQL2005

When i try to debug a stored procedure in Query Analyzer, I get the
following error:

"Server: Msg 508, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_sdidebug, Line 1
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Unable to connect to debugger
on MYPC\SQL2000 (Error = 0x800401f3). Ensure that client-side components,
such as SQLLE.DLL, are installed and registered on MYPC. Ddebugging disable
for connection 53."

Client side components _are_ installed. What gives? Any ideas?

Which service pack of SQL 2000 are you running, and which OS do you
have?

If you are running Windows XP SP2, you should upgrade to SP4 of SQL 2000.
