Debugging problems with web application

8/14/2006 2:15:53 PM

0/0

We are using web applications in VS 2005 but are having a problem getting debuggin running

The applications are sitting on a web server in the local domain.

We access the site using a host header through local DNS settings e.g. http://mysite

I have read through the many scattered documents on msdn and lots of other related pages but am stumped.

Am I correct in using Remote Debugging? - I have set up remote debugging on the web server. I've played around with security settings and have the remote monitor running as a service. When I debug it shows a connection from my machine in this monitor.

However, VS tells me that "The breakpoint will not currently be hit. No symbols have been loaded for this document" even in page load of a default aspx page with a single label and button in it!!!

I've seen some suggestions that the user that is debugging has to be a sysadmin on the server - surely this is not the case - no IT department would allow it.

Any and all help is much appreciated. Any reasons as to why this is so difficult to set up would ease my mind - never had this much grief with 2003.

Thanks in advance

Hello mcostello:

> VS tells me that "The breakpoint will not currently be hit. No symbols have been loaded for this document" even in page load of a default aspx page with a single label and button in it!!!

This sounds like your app has been compiled with debug=false in web.config, so there are no debug symbols the debugger can browse. Keep in mind, despite settings in web.config, that might also happen if you are deploying your application with the new Publish Web Site functionality in VS 2005.

Any details you can add?

Hi there,

Unfortunately that wasn't the issue. In the end we don't know what was. We finally got it debugging late yesterday evening but aren't 100% sure what we did to solve it.

However, I still have a major question as to why the process is so difficult to set up and awkward to use.

In VS2003, you simply hit Debug or F5 and away you go. In this you have to attach a process each time to run a debug. This seems unnecessarily complex. Surely the majority of development houses use a dev server and don't develop on the local machine. If so why does this version of visual studio make it so hard to develop in this way?

Or am I doing something wrong

I too still have to fully grasp the new model. What i can tell is in VS 2005 / Fwk 2.0 we do have our project on a development server as usual, but developers run the site on the local Cassini until deployment. I might be wrong, but this seems the new "natural" way to go...

I'm still not 100% sure how we got it working.

We followed the set up procedures for remote debugging - setting up the remote debug monitor, giving permissions to the debugger users group and setting it as a service.

Then in our project, we select Tool. Attach to Process, Select the server the code is on and attach to the w3wp.exe

Note - there can be more than one of these processes working - it seems to be trial and error to get the right one - attach to them all works as well if not ideal.

Good luck

Mark
