ISAPI: Debugging

HomeOverviewHow Do I

Preparing to debug your program requires careful attention to the setup steps. A detailed list of steps to set up your server for debugging is in technical note TN063: Debugging Internet Extension DLLs.

Getting Ready to Debug Your Application

The general steps to prepare for debugging include:

If you follow the steps in Technical Note 63 carefully, you will be able to set breakpoints for any of your filters and extensions from one project file based on the Internet server program you are running. If your debugging session doesn’t stop on the breakpoints you’ve set, go through the steps again. In particular, be sure you have installed the right files on the right computers and have set the appropriate permissions.

After you have successfully completed the setup described in Technical Note 63, you can debug locally on your server. It is often useful to be able to debug remotely, from another machine, because you may not always have access to the server, or it may not have a development environment installed. You can follow the steps described in Debugging Remote Applications to set up a Windows NT workstation computer to remotely debug an ISAPI DLL without logging on to the server directly.
