Debugging problem

I am in the process of writing a web application on my desktop. Debugger and everything else runs fine.

However, I recently got a lap top and I want to transfer the project to that to continue working.

I installed Framework and VS.NET. Then I copied the application directory from the desktop to the exact same path on the laptop.

now, I can open the project and edit source all I want, but when I go to start interactive debug, it says

[tt]
Error while trying to run project: unable to start debugging on the web server.
[/tt]

Any Ideas on how to resolve this issue.

thanks
 
There are many issues that may prevent you from debugging. Make sure that you are a member of the debuggers group. Make sure that you installed IIS before installing vs.net. Also, check to make sure that in the project properties under debugging, that asp.net is checked. Those are just 3 examples of reasons that you would not be able to debug. Check those to start. If they don't work, just post back to this thread, and I'm sure somebody will have an answer for you.

Also, can you start the project without debugging attached?

No luck

I checked project properties and ASP.NET debugging is checked

I also verified that my user name is in the debugger's user group (removed and re-added to make sure)

Also, I installed IIS the day I got it, and VS.NET a couple weeks later.

If I run the project with debugging turned off, it starts but there are no input boxes or submit buttons.

I am completely stumped.

Thanks
