Debugging in IIS Express with a custom host name and SSL RRS feed

  • Question

  • I used to be able to run VS 2015 without admin privileges and debug a project that uses SSL and a custom hostname pointing to my local machine.  But now I get this message.  I think it started after Update 1 was applied.  If I launch VS 2015 as administrator it starts up just fine.  Any ideas?

    >>Access is denied...

    Generally this kind of error messages mean that it requires the admin account.

    You mean that it worked normally before, but it has this issue after you just install the VS2015 update1, am I right?

    If you remove the update 1, how about the result? At least, we could know that whether it is related to the update 1.

    In addition, please make sure that you install the update 1 as the admin, check it again.

    Since this forum is to discuss the VS debugger tool, generally to make sure that whether it is the debugger tool issue, one simple way is that you could run/compile your app using "Start without debugging(Ctrl+F5)", if it still doesn't work, we could make sure that it is not the debugger tool issue.

    If just this web app has this issue, you know that the ASP.NET has his own support site, maybe the ASP.NET forum would be better:

    If I have misunderstood this issue, please feel free to let me know.
