Visual Web Developer 2005 Express on Vista: can’t debug asp.net
Just installed Visual Web Developer 2005 Express Edition on Vista, and it won’t stop at the breakpoint.
Solution:
1. Start VS Web as administrator
2. right click project, select “Property Pages”, in Start Options, make sure Debuggers->ASP.NET is checked
3. open web.config, make sure you have the following lines:
<compilation debug=”true”/>
4. Open IE, in Tools->Internet Options, select Advanced tab, make sure the “Disable script debugging (IE/Other)” is unchecked
5. Restart IE if you changed the setting
Now you should have the VS Web stopped at the breakpoint.
