Debugging asp.net application on iis 6.0

Question

User-2079098232 posted

Hello all

I am having trouble setting up debugging on IIS 6.0

My setup is:

• Windows Server 2003 running on a VM (Machine name: DEV01)
• Visual Studio Standard 2005
• IIS 6.0 on the same machine as VS2005
• Project web.config debug = true
• Virtual Directory is pointing to my C:\Projects\Website file location - File Permissions are DEV01\Adminstrators - FULL CONTROL
• IIS Virtual Directory : Enable ASP server side debugging checked
• ASP.NET project is set to use custom server : http://localhost/MyProject

When I attach to the w3wp.exe , i get the message that the breakpoints will never be hit, and yes, they dont get hit.

What settings have is missed out?

 

Thanks

In web.config make sure you have set debug = true 

 <system.web> 
  <compilation debug="true"/>
    </system.web>

Please read my post carefully- you will see that I have set the debug value. Also , if the debug value is not set , you will get a different error from the compiler

Are you able to attach it to any other process running on that machine DEV01 and terminate that process ?
It may be issue related to debugger user group. Do you have same account name password for that VM.

 I havent modified the debugger user group. Can you tell me what you think needs to be done? Also, how do you modify the user group on Windows 2003
