In order to debug your ASP component you have to attach to the running 

IIS

process. This is done by performing the following steps:



1) Configuration

* start IIS (inetinfo.exe)

* Make sure that yout web application is not running in a seperate 

process

but in in the IIS process. (Otherwise you need to attach to one of the

mtx.exe processes, but you won't know which instance to select)

* In the IDE select Build -> Start Debug -> Attach to running process 

and

activate the "Show system processes"- check box. Select 'inetinfo.exe'



A new workspace for inetinfo.exe gets opened. You need to add your dlls 

in

the Project->Settings->Debug tab.

Stop the Debugger, save the inetinfo-workspace and reopen your 

workspace.



2) Now you can start debugging:



* start iis ( 'net start iisadmin' and 'net start w3svc' for Winnt4.0 

or

'iisreset /start' for Windows2000)

* Attach to the inetinfo.exe process

* open your source file(s) and set breakpoints

* invoke your code (using your browser)
