2 Browsers Open In Visual Studio WebSite Development When Running Without Debugging?
Jan 19, 2011
In Visual Studio, when I click > Debug, > Start Without Debugging, (with my default browser set to IE), the application starts but it opens 2 IE browser instances. It opens 1 IE instance to start BUT when I close it, it launches another browser instance with the same start page. This bug is repeatable and consistent behaviour, that I can reproduce on-demad in IE.
(In some other minor variations, it seems that depending upon exactly how I start it, it will open 1 browser instance with 2 tabs, each tab having the startup page in it. However, this is not yet repeatable or consistent. It has happened; but, as of now, I am uncertain as the the exact steps to reproduce this particular variation of the anomaly.)
I am using Internet Explorer 8 (IE8).
I am using on Windows 7 32-bit.
I am using Visual Studio 2008 Standard.
I only have 1 startup project defined in Solution properties.
I have all Toolbars And Extensions set to "Disabled" in IE.
I have turned off "Automatic Crash Recovery" in IE.
I'm creating a website in Visual Studio 2010. I would like to use Visual Studio for C# debugging, but it also uses Visual Studio as JavaScript debugger. Is there a way to disable script debugging for Asp.Net website projects? I run my projects by hitting F5 in my Visual Studio. (I've noticed that when I attach the debugger manually, I can specify the type of stuff I would like to debug.) Note: I would like to debug, but not with Visual Studio. The developer toolbar is enough.
I have VS 2008 with SP1 installed on Win XP. I have .NET 3.5 with SP1 installed When I ran and opened an existing project for the first time, I got the below error WebDev.WebServer.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. After this error, I continusly get "Unable to connect to the ASP.NET Development Server. whenever I run the website. I checked the internet and ASP.NET forum and tried all the following Making port numbers auto assign Making it to a specific port number using the Custom web server Tried creating new web site and checking Replaced WebDev.WebServer.EXE after downloading it from a website My anti virus have not blocked any websites as such I tried resetting VS settings by running devenv /resetsettings what else might be the problem?
Debugging using the ASP.NET Development server is extremely slow to initialize. The behavior I'm getting is that if I launch the DevServer from VS2008, the first attempt to load a page takes minutes. After that, it's fine. Before the first page load, the DevServer UI responds to input normally (I can bring it up from the status area, use its context menu, and move the window around) until the first page load comes in. Then it shows the busy cursor (spinning blue ring) for 2-6 minutes before finally completing. There is no significant processor or I/O activity during this. After that, it runs normal speed, quite fast.
Is there any way to debug, or just simply run an ASP.Net page or project without using Local Host? F5 or Ctrl F5 sometimes load the page fairly fast and sometimes it just does not happen. (At least not within my span of patience.) It seems that when it stalls, if I close the browser or click Stop Debugging, and then try again, it happens! But it is never consistent and usually frustrating.
i have 2 problems with running&debugging my web projects using visual studio 2008 pro :
1.when choosing to run without debugging , IE is being opened (which is ok , since i chose it to be the default one to be opened via VS ) , and yet when i close IE , it is being opened once again .
2.when choosing to debug , visual studio crashes and IE is being frozen (can only be killed via task manager) ,even when i don't have the "debugger;" string in the javascript code.
i've tried to re-install VS , and also uninstall it and then re-install it, but it didn't help. i have windows xp sp3 home edition 32bit. what should i do? EDIT:about #1 , it seems that from some reason, VS didn't install "Microsoft Visual Studio Web Authoring Component" , and this is also why i had another problem of not being able to use the design/split mode . after installing this component, it seems that IE doesn't run twice anymore. however, i still have crashes of VS when trying to debug (problem #2) ,even thogh script debugging is enabled on IE. the weird thing is that on maxthon2 , which uses IE engine, debugging works just fine.
I just started getting the error message "Unable to Connect to the ASP.net Development Server" when debugging a website with VWD 2008 (everything was fine in the past). My system is Windows Vista with Windows Live OneCare firewall. I have reviewed other postings related to this problem, and they indicate firewall setting problems - settings not allowing VWD internet access. However, my settings on the "Windows Live OneCare Firewall Advanced Settings" tab specifically allow VWD.
I'm attempting to run/debug an ASP.NET MVC project under .NET 4.0 using VS2010's Dev Web Server. The server appears to spawn successfully and an instance of IE Explorer opens. However, the browser never seems to find the page. The browser just "spins" showing only a white page...no error message.VS is configured to randomly select a port, although I get the same results when configuring numerous static ports.The ASP.NET project is the start-up project.
I have a precompiled website deployed in a remote test server. I want to debug the site from my computer. Following page says that the compilation should be performed with symbolic information.
[URL]
I had compiled my application in debug mode.
Unfortunately the breakpoints are not hit even with a copy of the precompiled website deployed in my local IIS. Following were the actions done with the local copy.
1. Requested the Page
2. Opened the source code and attached visual studio to aspnet_wp.exe
3. No break points are hit( I can see visual studio giving the hint- The breakpoint will not currently be hit. No symbols have been loaded for this document.)
I recently upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate on my work computer. Before this debugging a website in Visual Web Developer 2008 was really fast - the page loaded up like a normal website would.
Since I've upgraded to Windows 7 the page loads like normal but gets stuck for about 30 seconds at the end of the load - this is slowing me down as I normally need to use the FireBug tool as soon as the page has loaded.
My client gave me this web solution, in it various projects, and the problematic project (for me) is the Web Site.
I've copied the code to test web server (2008) and installed VS 2008 so I could step through the code on the server due to some weirdness.
Anyhow, when I open the solution locally on my personal computer, it runs on Cassini [URL] because I'm not on a server OS. However, when I run the app on the web server, when I hit F5, it runs oh [URL].
When I'm running the code on the server, how do I point the web site to use Cassini?
I get this error when I hit F5 in VS 2008. I have checked that Windows authentication is enabled on the site and it is. I can mannully attach the debugger to the IIS process and it works. What could be wrong? I have tried alot of things without success.
I'm trying to debug my web application on my localhost machine in Visual Studio 2010 and I keep getting this error: "unable to start debugging on web server. The Microsoft Visual Studio remote debugging monitor(MSVSMON.exe) does not appear to be running on the remote computer."
Is there a way I can turn this off as I'm not trying to make any attempts debugging remotely.
After fresh installation of Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate in lap, I am unable to find New/Open Website in my Start Page and File Menu. See the below image for details.
What should I do to get the New/Open Website back?
P.S: Although I am not sure, I attribute this to initial settings I choose on the first run of Visual Studio Ultimate. I have selected some thing like General Development Settings. Will changing to Web Developer Settings solve the problem? If so, how to change the settings?
I run the start debugging option...it runs successfully. but still is shows start debugging option is shown in the Visual studio 2005 IDE. And one more problem is ::I applied break points in one page and run the application. but those break points are not detected....

I have upgraded a Visual Studio 2005 Web Site in a 32 bit server to Visual Studio 2008 maintaining the same 2.0 framework in a 64 bit server with Windows 2008 R2 Server. The Web Site has several class libraries.
After porting to Visual Studio 2008 2.0 Framework using the Upgrade Wizard, I found that I was unable to hit a break point in the Project code behind files while I was able to in the class libraries. The bin folder has the dlls and the corresponding pdb files for the class libraries. I did start the Web site as an Administrator and made sure whole bunch of IIS7 properties are properly set.
I tried to rebuild the solution as a Web Application in Visual Studio 2008 and gave up that approach as I faced hundreds of error messages pointing to missing references and namespaces inspite of adding whole lot of references and namespaces to the Web.
i have to read the dll files installed at client computer through the web application.
problem with the below code is , ihave used the activeX object in javascript to read thaat dll file , but it is only working with the IE browser , it is not working on mozilla , crome and other browser.
can anybody suggest the other way of doing that or how it is possible to read that activex object in other browser
I am trying to use SSIS Designer with BI Development Studio. I downloaded MS Visual Studio 2010 Beta and do not find an option to get into either the SSIS Designer or BI Development studio.
I wanna to buy Visual Studio but I don't want to buy the whole edition which include WPF and Win forms, I just an edition for web development nothing more!
is there an easy way to debug an application in vs 2008 without actually logging onto my machine as different users? its a winforms app in 3.5 on xp...i know how to do the whole "run-as" option when the program is done and built, but for testing its getting really annoying! maybe something like impersonate that web apps have...anything like that for winforms?
