Can't debug: strange error

[NicoVB]

Unable to start debugging on the web server

Then it shows a document of what I have to do but nothing helps. The error says I have to install maybe the server components. I don't know what that is. Which CD?

Help me

Extra information:

- I have not a static IP
- The site can started, if I start the page without debugging

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeehaaa!!!! After 2 days of searching I finally solved the whole problem: I had to register the aspnet_isapi.dll.

Now I can debug, and also web services run

Thanks for posting that - it kicked my butt all morning.

Ever come across a situation where you can't access a particular dll, no matter what rights you set?

 

[Solemn Phoenix]

Yes... I am trying to access a registered dll in the system32 directory from server-side vb code and when debugging, it throws an exception "Access Denied"...

and I have no idea to what exactly it refers to... the actuall dll, the aspnet_isapi.dll, server rights or something else... it doesnt really elaborate...

wouldnt aspnet_isapi.dll already be registered in order for aspx pages to run in the first place??

What do you mean "register the aspnet_isapi.dll"? use regsvr32.exe?

What cause you unable to start debugging?

 

[Solemn Phoenix]

I can start debugging but at the point I am trying to access a system-registered dll (in system32 folder, made by Microsoft, registered with regsvr32.exe) it throws an exception saying "Access Denied" and generates a long page of "you realy shouldn't be doing this, you naughty boy" text...

Any idea?

You've got two ways to correct the problem of IIS losing mappings between .net extensions anf the aspnet dll :

• either you have to register aspnet_isapi.dll (regsvr32)
• or you can run aspnet_regiis.exe (both files are in C:\<win root>\Microsoft.NET\Framework\<Framework version>
