_IMAGE_DOS_HEADER symbol not found

Question

I have recently installed windbg inside windows 7 in Vmware .. Installed windows SDK and Windows Symbols.

But still when I open executable "notepad.exe" inside windbg, and run the following dt _IMAGE_DOS_HEADER command, it says symbol not found.

I have PATH set already _NT_SYMBOL_PATH=SMVSRV*c:\Symbols*http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols

Tried the same on windows XP ... same issues ..

Please advice.

Thanks !

Set it to srv**http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols. Despite what documentation is saying, prefix symsrv does not work for me, while srv does:


0:000> .sympath srv**http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols
Symbol search path is: srv**http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols
Expanded Symbol search path is: srv**http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols
