View 2 Repliesi have an asp.net website which contains a link to a legacy site written in classic asp which has vb 6 classes (dll) in the back ground also.here is what i am trying to achieve:-i want to browse to the asp.net website using IE7,then when the link is clicked then enters the classic asp site i want to start debugging the classic asp and step through it.(also to make things worse, once a the vb6 class is instanciated, and a call make to its method i want to debug the method in the vb 6 code)My system :- XP Pro, IIS 5, Visual Studio 2005 (asp.net project ), Visual interdev 6 (classic asp project) Visual Basic 6 (vb 6 classes compiled into dll)i have been trying everything with no joy, there is lots on the net but nothing seems to have worked.i have the back office components installed so asp debugging is possible, i have configured the asp website s debugging is turned on.if i add a breakpoint to the classic asp site and hit the start button in visual interdev i can step through it fine.My problem is that if i attach interdev to a process (iexplorer.exe or dll.host) then the breakpoints are not hit. if anyone can help me with this it would be great.ont top of that, if anyone can explain to me how to also debug the vb6 dll code in visual basic 6 when it is called from the classic asp site that would be great!
View 1 RepliesError: When I hit F5: "A project with an output type of class library cannot be started directly. In order to debug this project, add an executable project to this solution which references the library project. Set the executable project as the startup project."Trying to debug the code in windows applications. It throws the above error.Googled, most of them say to download the exe file. But when I've right click the Project ->add reference-> browse -> bin-> debug -> .dll downloaded, still throws the same error. Unable to locate the executable file.

View 5 RepliesThere are a lot of new features in VS 2010 that I'm very much enjoying, but there are two things occurring that I'm wondering about. I often have several windows open like any developer will, and I arrange them in a particular order that makes sense to me, from left to right. As new windows are opened, tabs are created at the far left, and I move them to where I want them. Basically, I like to have the database diagram at the far left, then the repository class for whatever controller I'm working on, then the service class, then controller class and then various views. Not that my particular order is important to the question, but here it is.
I've noticed that, while working and switching between tabs (by clicking on the tab - not moving it or removing the current one), this order is getting changed. Some of the tabs that I've dragged over to the far right will suddenly be on the far left. The rearrangement always places windows on the far left. This happens regularly, and I've paid attention to my actions, so I know I'm not accidentally dragging them over myself, or closing/reopening them. This seems to occur with the tabs that I use the most, as if Visual Studio is trying to place my most-used tabs over to the far left. I'd rather this not happen and handle the order of the tabs myself.
The other thing is less important, but is a little odd. When I start my MVC 2 application in debug mode, my entire code window goes completely white until the application loads. This never happened in VS 2008, and I'm guessing it's some kind of side effect of having the interface written in WPF. It's not that bad, but is a little annoying.
I have an asp.net project in visual studio 2008I press F5 and the "test page" does not launch and I don't understand why.Looked at the properties for the site and "start action" is correctly set to "use current page"Similar question. assuming it automatically launched above, how does one open a 2nd instance of the current debug site (seems like their ought to be a "launch site" button?edit: I went back and launched VS as admin and it did launch the site. Maybe this is a security issue?
View 1 RepliesI have looked at all the posts I can find on this problem and tried everything I can think of, but still the problem persists. I am getting really sick of it.was working fine for the last year until an update to MS Office 2007 caused a lot of problems (automatic update). After checking posts here, I removed it completely. No change. I then tried all the things I could find on other posts, also no change. Today, I removed VS and the Web Authoring Component and re-installed. Still no go.
Does anyone have a fix for this problem. It seems that it has been around a long time, but is still giving problems. I even saw one suggestion to reformat the drive! You've got to be joking!

I'm about to start a new module in my existing web application project (already completed 3 modules), due to more data entry and volume of data handling my PM informed me to go this module on windows application (vb.net), but i'm requesting him to go with web application since i'm much familiar in web applcation and all my completed module on web.
But he is thinking on performance part too, if i get some idea / suggestion on the same so that i can clear and i will go with either option.
The module is Service Billing with LPO Control, Billing, Proforma, eBilling, eApproval, online billing etc.

View 2 RepliesI recently purchased a new laptop running Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit). I installed Visual Web Developer 2008 Express using the Microsoft Web Platform Installer. When I open a .aspx file within one of my websites VWD immediately freezes. The program will not respond and I have to use the task manager to force it to shut. This happens every time.
I have already tried uninstalling and re-installing VWD but the problem still occurs. However if I open another type of file in a website, say a .css or .xml file the problem does not occur. It seems to happen only when I open a .aspx file. Has anyone else come across this?

We have a shared drive where web applications are published to. When I attempt to publish I get the following error:
------ Publish started: Project: XXX.Web, Configuration: Release Any CPU ------
Connecting to T:WebSitesXXX...
Unable to create the Web site 'T:WebSitesXXX'. The path 'T:WebSitesXXX' does not exist or you do not have access. The system cannot find the path specified.

OS: Windows 7
IDE: Visual Studio 2008 (running as administrator)
Path exists? Yup.
I assume it's some permissions issue, but I have no idea where to start.
I have created a web app using Visual Studio 2008 Express Edition and have come to the point where I need to publish the site onto my server (which is running window server 2008). I found that the publish function is not limited in the express edition, so published the app to a local file and FTP'd the contents across to my server. I then setup a website through the servers IIS manage and pointed it to the folder containing the FTP'd files.
My question is, how do I run the app? Do I need to point to a specific file?
I have tried to view a number of the files in browser directly from the IIS but keep getting the same standard connection error i.e. "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage"
I have never used IIS Manager before and I can't find a resource which gives me a step by step guide to setting up a new site which has been created by Visual Studio 2008 Express Edition, are there any config changes needed.
When I edit in a asp file, the intellisense does not work for any ADODB objects with vs2008(sp1) in Windows 7.For example:Set conn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.connection")
.. And next line I keyin "conn". Then keyin ".", but it does not popup the intellisense menu for ADODB.connection.But, the native objects for asp, such as Request, Response, Session, Server.. etc., them popup the intellisense menu correctly.Or some other objects, such as "CDO.Message", them work fine !
