Profiling with instrumentation is failing - odd error

Question

This is the error I am receiving:

PRF0002: Instrumentation failed with these options: /u "C:\PB\v4.0BeforeDataRefrac\EXE\RELEASE\PROCBOOK.EXE"  .  Please check the output window for additional details.

I checked the output window - but no additional details.  Why is it failing?  What is instresting is that I did get profiling to run for the some application, just a different build.

Thanks.

Answer 1

Which version of Visual Studio are you using? Can you post the content of the output window?

If you had success with a different build, it could be a symbols problem. Do you have the MATCHING symbols together with the binary?

Answer 2

Thanks for you answer - I got it all sorted out!  My project configuration was messed up and the symbols were in the wrong place.  Elizabeth
