never seen this before. I'm stumped. It was working fine up until a couple days ago.
Suddenly, it's showing the following symptoms:
- pressing F5 or start from the debug menu causes visual studio ide to go into debugging layout
- executable name shows up in task manager.
- executable memory usage is 144k no matter what project i'm trying to run
- no windows (console in console apps, windows in window apps) appear whatsoever
- debug output pane is empty
- pressing the break button yields error popup "Unable to break execution. The process does not contain any programs"
- pressing stop, a message pops up too fast for me to read, eventually
IDE returns to normal layout (non debug). Executable is still
listed in task manager.
- when looking at Debug->Processes... dialog, executable shows up in
list, but grayed out and unselectable, with microsoft development
Environment listed as debugger
- executable in task manager doesn't disappear until i exit the IDE.
- no other error messages appear. waiting for the program to start never yields any results.
i can't find any help on this anywhere.
I've uninstalled it and reinstalled studio .net 2003 3 times today with no change in behavior.
help!

Never saw something like this.
Look into the debugger output window, any messages here about loading modules

I don't think the debugger is successfully attaching to the process at all.
stumped! i really don't want to reinstall windows, please help!

Scritchy - did you ever get a resolution to this issue
I have a nearly identical experience.
After a lot of head scratching, I finally made a few minor code changes, re-compiled and linked. The debugger returned to the correct behavior!
But oops, not so fast - now the stalling behavior is back
WEIRD!
