Situation: Windows 2003, .NET, developing server.

When I try to debug the webapp, I get the message: 'Unable to start
debugging on the web server. You do not have permissions to debug the
server. Verify that you are a member of the debugger users group on the
server'.

According to the computer management I am member of not only the debugger
group, but also the administrators. Thing is that is did work a couple of
weeks ago.

I can manually attach the debugger to the w3wp.exe process and start the
debugging manually, but that is irritating doing that all the time.

A 2nd developer with the same rights can 'normally' start the debug proces.
So it appears that there something has gone wrong with my user account.

Anyone any input?

Hi,

Could you check whether the entries in the "Secure IIS" section in
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnnetsec/html/H
TWorkStat.asp

is what causes the issue?

Tnx. for the response.

Interesting article, but the URLScan / IISLockdown cannot be the cause since
it is not installed. Even than, why can another developer debug from the
same machine under a different user account?
