I am debugging a browser helper object (dll) and I have debug settings to
launch Internet Explorer and attach for debugging. This has been working
fine, but now I receive this error:

Unable to attach to machine 'FRANK2'.
Do you want to continue anyway?

I am debugging on the local machine and using Visual Studio .Net 2003. I
don't know why the error occurs, or how to diagnose the problem.

I can still debug if I manually start IE and then attach to the process via
vsnet menus.

Frank

What lang are your using? What are your debugger project settings?

I am using C++.
My Configuration Properties->Debugging are:
Action
command c:\program files\internet explorer\iexplore.exe
attach yes
Debuggers
debugger type auto
SQL debugging no
Remote Settings
connection local

settings not included in the group above are blank.

By the way, when I manually attach, I only use "native" as the type of
program to debug.

Are these the settings you wanted?

Thanks,

Frank

Pressing the start triangle in vsnet to start debugging does seem to work if
Internet Explorer is already running. I don't think I had to do this
before...

You need to change attach to no, and you might want to change your debugger
type to either native or mixxed if you are debugging any managed code.
