hi,

i'm wondering if anyone can give a quick walkthrough on how to correctly implement debugging on my IIS machine. after developing a toy app in VS.NET, i tried to debug and recieved the following error

Code:
Error while trying to run project: Unable to start debugging on the web server.  Run setup or install to repair the debugger...

note that direct browser calls to any of my aspx pages execute w/out a hitch - no problems. i just can't debug.

i've checked the solution properties to ensure that i build/allow for debugging. what's a bit mystifying is the error's reference to re-running setup; i'm assuming that it's referring to the framework install on the server


any advice is greatly appreciated! thank in advance.

 
additonal note: i've also verified that my account has been added to the Debuggers group. still a no-go.
 
Problem solved. and for those that are interested...

after going through a myriad of solution settings, virtual directory settings, service connections, et al, to no avail, i found a blurb in a white paper published by Microsoft [/url] that made reference to installing the Remote Components from the VS.NET install disks.

so after slapping myself in the head, things are fine.
