Which Processes should I add debugger too?

Question

I created a web services and added it to IIS 7.5, now I can access it but my code isn't working properly as not returning what i am expecting (logical problem).

Now I opened Visual Studio 2010 but not able to find any process I can attach process to start debugging.

I also tried "Show all processes" and "Show all sessions.."

Which one should i attach it to debug it ?

Answer 1

you need to attach the debugger to w3wp.exe

Answer 2

Sometimes the w3wp.exe process shows up in the list only after accessing it for the first time. Try doing that and then refresh the list.

Another thing to consider is that debugger does not work in "release" config. Make sure it is "debug". Go to menu->build->configuration manager->Active solution configuration.
