Is It Possible To Debug A Web Application That's Not Started From Within Visual Studio
Aug 13, 2010
The default ASP.NET web server that launches from within Visual Studio (Casini) is a little buggy on my development machine, so I like to publish to a local IIS instance on my dev machine and look at the web application there. However, I'm not automatically in "Debug Mode" when I launch the application this way.
I know that VS 2010 has an "Attach to Process" debug feature, but I'm not sure exactly how to use it. What do I need to do to be able to debug a local IIS ASP.NET web application from within Visual Studio? Specifically:
What settings do I need to change in the configuration of my web application?
What "Package/Publish Settings" do I need to change?
Is there anything I need to change in IIS?
Is there anything special I need to do in the "Attach to Process" screen?
Background Information: I'm running Visual Studio 2010 on Windows XP SP3 with IIS 5.1 and .NET 4.0.
Additional Information:
I should add that I've tried attaching to aspnet_wp.exe, but when I go to a page that I know has a breakpoint in it, I get the following message when I hover over the "open circle" breakpoint:
The breakpoint will not currently be hit. No symbols have been loaded for this document.

[code].....
There are plenty other similar static methods defined within the class.
When does it fail: ONLY when the solution is compiled in 'DEBUG' mode. Everything works fine in 'RELEASE' mode.
What have I already tried:
1. Including a static constructor inside 'Utility' class - FAILED
2. Marking 'Utility' class with 'static' keyword: FAILED
3. Changing platform target from 'Any CPU' to 'x64': FAILED
As highlighted above, the issue is really not with VerifyPassword() method per se. Rather it is with the instantiation of 'Utility' type. That's why an exception is thrown from the constructor. Since 'VerifyPassword' is it is the first static method called, it appears in the stack. Just for the sake of proving that, I removed the call to VerifyPassword and returned 'true' instead. That way I was able to login to the application (no password verification), but failed at a later stage where I had called the Utility class on another method, namely Utility.ValidateSKUAdjustment(txtCurentMonthM1.Text).

First time i am going to work on (maintenance project) application that is already in production.The application was developed in ASP.net 3.5/C# 3.0(web forms) with jQuery,Ajax,Sql server 2005 and microsoft enterprise library 4.0.,WCF services. Questions (bear with me if my question is wrong)
1) Is it possible to use Visual Studio (2008 with SP1) to debug the remote application (i.e already in production)?.What are the tools do i need to use in order to keep track the things in case something went wrong?
2) Simply looking into Log file ,will solve the issues?
3) After having done with enhancements,is it possible to directly deploy the DLLs into production server.Won't it affect the running application?
what are the procedures i need to follow.Client is ready to provide any tools for my support.(What are the area do i need to aware to handle production system

Debug-Start Debugging/Debug-StartWithoutDebugging OR Project ASP.Net Configuration launches Dreamweaver. It started lastnight, I had both Deamweaver and VWD 2008 express open at the same time - (I was looking at JQuery in the Microsoft and Dreamweaver enviroments simultaniously). After the first tie this happened, I closed down Dreamweaver (CS3) and it opened when I tried to run my VWD project. I reinstalled VWD 2008 express, IIS and disabled Dreamweaver (renamed the exe). Dreamweaver still came up.

I have 2 sollutions (1 CMS, 1 Customer specific with controls). The customer controls are coppied (with xcopy) to the CMS location. In the web.config of the CMS the specific controls are registered.The controls are useing functions from the CMS dll as well.How can I debug those two solutions as it where only one? I tried to start the CMS in debug mode with breakpoints in de CMS and customer controls, in this case only the breakpoints in the CMS are used. If I run the customer controls in debug mode only the braekpoint in this solution are used.The CMS is running on my local IIS 7.

I am using VS2010 and am working on an ASP.NET web application for .net 4.0.
I have created a file called StringUtilities.js and placed it in a subfolder of my application called Scripts.
The entire content of the file is listed here:
[Code]....
In one of my .aspx pages I have the following code:
[Code]....
On a button's "OnClientClick" (for example) I call the method encodeText() and everything works fine.
Today I added the method updateImage() which calls StringUtilities.js - updateAttribute() method, also added today.
If I open that unit in VS2010 and place a break point in the source code for the new method it turns white and says:
"The breakpoint will not currently be hit. No symbols have been loaded for this document.".
What gets even stranger (this is so hard to exaplain)....
Before today I did not have the method updateAttribute() in that .js file. So even though my source editor is showing all of my new source code changes, if I trace the previous method that did exists - htmlEncode(), the trace lines in the editor are highlighting where the lines "used" to be. which is near the top of that file as if my new code was not there.
It just sounds like there must be a different way of tracing javascript and the way I am doing it must not be it. I would have assumed it worked the same way I would trace my c# code.

When I ran Vista (x64) Prem with IIS7 and VS2008 sp1, I could press F5 and start debugging a web application and the debugge would run as long as I needed. I got a new PC that has Win 7 (x64). Now, the debugger will run 30-60 seconds and then quits. The web application still runs but the debugger shows that it is not in debug mode and the breakpoints are no longer hit. I know you can attach to the w3wp process and debug that way, but has anyone found a way to keep the debugger running for as long as you need when you press F5??

I have been using VWD2010 Express for a website that I am working on. Due to a delay in implementing the 4.0 framework at the hosting service that I use, I need to finish up with VWD2008 Express. Is there a simple way to save my project so that it is compatible with 2008?

I had everything up and running fine, was able to debug and everything.
I could attach to process and run a SP in the database and it would fire over to VS stopping on the breakpoint.
I can't remember what I did to mess it up but I ended up uninstalling my DB and reinstalling it; SQL Server 2005.
Now when I try to attach nothing happens. The SP runs and that is it I never go back into VS.
I'm thinking I have to reinsatll VS now.

I have a solution with some projects. There are several break-points in different projects. I want to trace the first thread hit one of these break-points and continue tracing that single thread despite of other threads entering the same code-blocks.
I know this is possible through defining a condition on the break-point i.e, thread name = ... or thread Id = ... but my case is a heavy loaded asp.net application and as soon as I attach to w3wp.exe many threads will hit the break-points. I need some thing like a ThreadLocal<break-point>.

Im using Visual Studio 2010 in Windows 7.
I got a problem regarding CSS in my pages. I managed to apply styles to my page using css and everything looks fine in the Design view. I ran it on IE8 and everything is working fine. Now after I returned to Visual Studio, added some rules to my CSS, and noticing that everything is working fine in the Design view, I ran it again in IE8 and nothing has changed. The rules I added was ignored and it looks the same. I ran it on Firefox and Google Chrome and it's working fine.
But if I ran my project in IE8 through IIS7.5, everything is working fine so it means, the problem is within visual studio 2010.

This is weird: When I try to debug ASP.NET web application, Visual Studio 2010 gives me this message "Script debugging of your application is disabled in Internet Explorer", but in my IE 7 (Internet Options --> Advanced), both "Disable Script Debugging" checkboxes are not checked.
what happens to my Visual Studio 2010?
