Answer 1

That suggests the build that's running doesn't match with your code.

Try performing a "clean", make sure that you've stopped any previous debugger sessions etc, then rebuild and retry.

Answer 2

make sure there are not instances of w3wp.exe running. I had several and closing them fixed it for me.

Answer 3

It worked for me. Try this.

First try rebuilding your project by right mouse click the project > Rebuild If that doesn't work, try a clean of the project (right mouse click on the project > clean)

If that didn't work check this:

Right mouse click your project
select [Properties]
select the [Build] tab
make sure [Define DEBUG constant] and [Define TRACE constant] are checked
Click the [Advanced] button at the bottom of the Build tabpage
Make sure that [Debug Info:] is set to [full]
Click [OK] and rebuild the project ;-)

Hope that works for you! (step 6 generates the .pdb files, these are the debugging symbols)

Answer 6

This problem occurred to me when I had copied the project. In fact, by opening the old code file if breakPoint is inserted, you will see that it will work. So learn the correct copying method.
