Unable to start debugging on the web server.

Unable to start debugging on the web server.

• JohnHennesey

  Hi!

  Thanks for asking! I'm a member of the ASP.NET team, and was just popping over here to see what was going on. The best place to ask ASP.NET questions is over on the ASP.NET forums at http://www.asp.net/welcome.aspx tabindex=1&tabid=39

  If the web server is running on a remote computer, you may not be authorized to debug on the remote server, which could be the problem.  Also, is there any kind of restrictions on the ports (firewalls on either side yours or the servers, the proxy's in between, etc) that could be preventing this   Have a look on the ASP.NET forums for more info if this doesn't help.

  HTH,

  PEte

  Hi,

  Check the frontpage server extension 2000 is installed with IIS and if then also you are facing the same problem then provide me the same error message that you are getting. You can take snap shot or any otherway.

I have asp.net 2.0 installed on my system and appears to be set up for the new site. When I try to run a file from VWD I get the following error message. Unable to start debugging on the web server. Unable to connect to the web server. Verify that the web server is running and that incoming Http requests are not blocked by a firewall. Even if I turn off by firewall I get the same message. Can anyone help

  Hi,

  Check the frontpage 2000 server extensions is installed with IIS and if then also you are facing the same problem then provide me the same error message that you are getting. You can take snap shot or any otherway.

  To install frontpage 2000 server extensions go to

  Control Panel->Add or remove programs->windows componant->select IIS and click detail button.

  It will open the new window check whether frontpage 2000 server extensions is installed or not, if not then click the check box and install it.

  Hi denish

  IIS was installed first , anyway i followed your advise and run the aspnet_regiis -i command and i still can't debug the application !!!

  Problem occurs because IIS is installed after VS.

  So to solve conflict run the following command from visual studio command prompt.

  aspnet_regiis -i

  Note: if you have more than one version of .net framework installed in your machine then run this command from the version folder which you are going to use.

  eg. C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727>aspnet_regiis -i

  In your machine you have one framework version or two version.

  For ex. if you have 1.1 and 2.0 then register with respected version as I said earlier and also follow this instruction also.

  · Check which version of ASP.Net is default selected with IIS.

  Open IIS and right click on Default Web Sites node. Click on property command and then click on SP.Net tab. If ASP.NET version combo box is blanked then selected then version which you want to use with IIS and click ok.

  And still if you are not able to do it let me know what exactly you are getting as an error message.

  Hi pete !

  cannot find anything that might help regarding debugging asp.net 2005 .

  all i get is :

  “Unable to start debugging on the web server. Unable to connect to the web server. Verify that the web server is running and that incoming HTTP requests are not blocked by a firewall.”

  This is the error message I get when I try to debug my application ,

  I am running xp professional sp2. I had no problems when using visual studio 2003 but when I installed 2005 debugging aspx pages prove to be impossible

  I have tried every thing :

  Re-installing

  Setting permission & security

  Nothing works

  Turned off firewall !!! and IIS is RUNNING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  Could you please help

  Many thanks
