[b]This tool when actiavted has known to cause problems with ASP.NET
applcations.

I ran into this problem when I installed a few hotfix/updates from the
windows update site: (I have also read about this happening when IE 6
is installed)

[b]
THE PROBLEM:[/b]

when aspx files are run in debug mode, this is the error we get:[/b]
Error while trying to run porject: Unable to start debuggin on the web
server. Server side-error occured on the sending debug HTTP request.

Make sure the server is operating correctly. Verify there are no
syntax errors in web.config by doing.Start Without debugging. You may
also want to refer to the ASP.NET and ATL Server debugging topic in
the online documentation.

would you like to diable future attempts to debug ASP.NET pages for
this project?

YES NO HELP

[b] In the system Event log, this is what I found:
These two errors occured every 22 seconds ever since I installed the
updates:

Event Type: Error

Event Type: Error
Event Source: ASP.NET 1.0.3705.288
Event Category: None
Event ID: 1007
Date: 10/22/2002
Time: 3:43:36 AM
User: N/A
Computer: WORKSTATION2
Description:
aspnet_wp.exe could not be launched because the username and/or
password supplied in the processModel section of the config file are
invalid.

[b]SOLUTION:[/b]

find this:
C:\winnt\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.0.3705\CONFIG\machine.config

find the line starting

<processModel enable="true"

and change the userName attribute to "SYSTEM"

Doing this will give more rights to the application. I donot unaware
of the full consequences of doing so though. I'd be glad to hear more
about this.
