One minute it worked, the next it didn't. I'm not sure what happened.

If I press F5 to debug my web app, the solution compiles but IE never starts
up. The aspnet_wp process is at 0% cpu and the memory is stable. If I click
pause in the IDE, it tells me to wait until the debugger has finished
loading. If I click stop it does stop.

Any ideas?? Thanks in advance...

PS - VS2003 on WinXP Pro

Hi Rob,

>One minute it worked, the next it didn't. I'm not sure what happened.

It seems a little odd on your machine. I suggest you can close all of the
IE instances as first, then use the Task Manager to check whether the
iexplorer.exe has been invoked by the NS2003 IDE or not while this problem
occurs. This could help us to isolate where the problem exists.

Thanks!

Thanks Gary. That was a great idea. I did get things squared away before I
could try it though.

At some point I had accidentally turned on debugging for unmanaged code.
The project is a very large web application that has many ASP pages
referencing many COM+ components. I am not sure exactly what the IDE goes
through to prepare to debug that, but it did eventually come up after about a
half hour.

I turned off the unmanaged code bebugging and things are back to normal.
Thanks for the response though!

You are welcome Bob! I am glad to know you found the root cause.:)
