Unable To Debug Web Service Project In Visual Studio 2008
May 19, 2009
I've been assigned a web app written in VB using VStudio.net 2003. I am trying to configure the source on my localhost (VStudio 2008) so I can explore and learn about the current app (before I begin any real changes) and I cannot get debugging working for the web service project(s).
Symptom 1: "Unable to automatically step into the server. The remote procedure could not be debugged. This usually indicates that debugging has not been enabled on the server. See help for more information". This happens when I try to F11 (stepInto) the proxy class which invokes my actual web method.
Symptom 2: Pre-setting a breakpoint in my .asmx file code on the statement that will be invoked does not work (i.e. the debugger simply doesn't stop). Having described the situation, here's how my VStudio Solution is configured: Service1 - project created from the VB - WEB - ASP.NET Web Service Application template; this Service1 project contains my main .asmx source code I want to debug. Web.config for this project contains compilation defaultLanguage="vb" debug="true"
This started happening randomly yesterday. When I press F5 to test my project, an old build of the program (circa yesterday afternoon) launches. No changes (and I've tried in a few different files) are reflected in the project. However, and this is truly perplexing, if I go to Build --> Build from the Menu bar, the output .exe in the /bin/release/ directory DOES include all the recent changes.
I am very new to Visual Studio Application Development. I'm mostly a DB guy. I used Visual Studio as a Report Designer, not much of an .Net guy though I can understand it. I am now asked to create a .net application and I'm trying to create a "Hello World" starter app. I opened my Visual Studio, click File-New Project and all I see is Business Intelligence Projects and Other Project Types. My step-by-step guide says choose Visual Basic, Windows Forms Application. But I can't see it as an option.
when i try to install VS2008 sp1 which is downloaded from microft.com , i got error "The application or DLL E:vs90sp1sqmapi.dll is not a valid Windows image. Please check this against your installation diskette."
I want to use the filter element that is defined in CSS in order to render some PNGs for use in IE6. Using VS 2008 and creating a style sheet in the Studio I noticed that when I wrote the word filter, it was not recognised by intellisence. Is there a bug in VS 2008? How can I make my app recognise filter? I really need to use this command word in order to render my transparency correctly
WebMatrix is a web development and deployment tool by Microsoft so how is this compared to Visual Studio? which Use C# Razor Syntax is that more better coding.
My question maybe not be very clear, but I just want to know how this process is called or references needed to create something similar, so I can investigate on my own ( but if you have code is welcome.Basically I have 2 desktop programs ( A and B). For A, I do not have the source code, for B I do.What I need is to create some service/program that after a screen pops up from program A, automatically runs B. IN other words, capture the moment a specific screen is shown in A and execute B.
My real life scenario is that I have a very basic POS where I can't collect customer demographics ( zip code, etc), so I created a second application to capture that but my cashiers are always forgetting to run the program and I need to find a way to run it after a screen is shown ( let's say the "Change Due" in the POS, so they don't forget to run it.
I have a vb 6 project developed with VB6.0 on XP. I've installed Visual Studio (Professional Edition)2008 on a Windows 7 box. When I tried to convert the vb 6 project (.vbp file) using VB 2008's wizard, I got error messages that the "upgrade failed" because it could not "load the referenced components: msadodc.ocx (6.0.0) and msde.dll It is recommended you install VB6.0 with all referenced components......"I have the VB6.0 CD's and tried to install it on the Win7.0 box and got the message that VB6.0 was incompatible ?
In Visual studio 2008, I am not able to see Batch Build option for vb.net projects as c++ projects. I am new to VB.Net. but do it have any other options to do batch buld rather than creating Batch file?
When I try to debug my WPF application in visual studio 2010 it launches two versions of my application. Both are linked to the debugger. has anyone seen this before or knows a way to fix it.
My visual studio addin project will not longer build and run in the debugger. I get the following error message when I try to run it:A project with an Output Type of CLass Library cannot be stared directly.It was working about 5 months ago just fine but I opened it and and ran it for the first time since then and get this message. It used to startup another instance of Visual Studio with the addin installed via a proxy addin file. How do I configure the project or solution to make it behave this way again? Do I need to manually tweak the project of solution file?
I have a Web Service Application Project in Visual Studio 2008. This is supposed to be an ASP.Net 2.0 project and at some point this has been rebuilt using 3.5.VS has kindly added in project level imports to System.Linq and System.Xml.Linq, but when I have re-targeted the project at 2.0 these project level imports have remained.Because the Web Service Application Project does not have the detailed window for editing project references I cannot find how to remove these project level imports.There is no .proj file which is where I would assume these were included.I cannot now build the project as it fails, even though I only get warnings (no errors reported) such as this:Namespace or type specified in the project-level Imports 'System.Linq' doesn't contain any public member or cannot be found. Make sure the namespace or the type is defined and contains at least one public member. Make sure the imported element name doesn't use any aliases.
If I build a Windows Forms project in Visual Studio 2008, and start it with a Sub Main instead of a form, and for the time being, don't show any forms, is it considered a Console application? Will console.writeline work?
I'm suddenly having trouble with GetPrivateProfileSection in a Windows Forms project in Visual Studio 2008. The same code works when it's run as an aspx page in a website. Anyway, I define the WINAPI call thusly:
I upgrade my computer to win 7 64 bit and run visual studio 2008, When I try to debug my old dotnet application (orgiinal from XP) it wont allow me to change any code while stop and debug. It said 'Change to 64 bit application is not allowed.
I want the designer to catch the error when I am debugging and I want the user to see my friendly message if an error occurs for them. I know I can acomplish this with the following:
[Code]...
I do not want to have to write all the #statements and having them cluttering up my code. It seems like this should be a common need and there has to be a better way. Does anyone know a better way?
I am using Visual Studio Ultimate. I have made a fairly long program which worked fine.One day I find that the debug button was disabled and both the build and rebuild buttons do not work. I have tried opening the same project files in Visual Basic Express 2010 but still, the sane problem.
I am working on a Visio Addin in VS2010 Professional and am looking for hot spots (specifically around a COM object) while debugging the application. I have found a number of profilers that can profile existing .NET applications, but none of which (that I have seen) support debugging. Further more, because this is a .NET add-in rather than a full standalone executable I'm not sure how they'd fair. [code] Has anyone found a profiler that can be used during a VS2010 debug session?
I set my computer then install VB6.0 run VS2005 VB.net 2005 error example: Visual Studio can not start debugging because-the debug target exe .'... 'is missing.Please build the project and retry, or set the OutputPath and AssemblyName properties appropriately to point at the correct location for the target assembly. same machine can use the same VB6.0 and vb.net 2005 is not?
I have a solution with multiple projects (vb.net) , with some projects I have the optino to choose between the configuration: and in other projects I don't have that option. (I've had the option before). Has anyone an idea to show the option again. I can change it in project file (with notepad) but that's not userfriendly.
