Not able to debug program

[maximc]

In VB.Net, although in the Configuration Manager, I selected "Debug", yet the program does not stop at the breakpoint. Can someone help me, please?

Where is the break point set? Are you sure that execution passes that point?

 

[maximc]

yes, my breakpoint is within the execution module. In fact, I added a msgbox() line just above my breakpoint and it got displayed but the execution never went in debug mode. If I give a breakpoint in my main module, the debug is working fine only for that module but when the control is transferred to other modules, the program gets executed without giving me an opportunity to trace. This wasn't happening earlier, this phenomenon just started recently. I have no idea why.

If any of you were wondering what I was talking about, here it is what I've discovered. The tracing wasn't working because I had installed IIS component - FrontPage Server Extensions after I had installed Visual Studio.Net and this caused the problem. What I did was I uninstalled the VS.Net and reinstalled the same and it is working fine now. Thanks anyway.

Hi

Not that it is of much help to you now that you have resolved the issue, but maybe others will find this useful.

If you have installed IIS after installing Visual Studio then you can perform a re-install of ASP.NET which should then fix your debugging issues etc. To do this, open a command prompt and navigate to <WindowsDirectory>\Microsoft.NET\Framework\V#.#.#### where v#.#.#### represents the framework version you are using. From there, enter aspnet_regiis -i to re-install ASP.NET.
