Hi,
I have ASP.Net application that I have moved to different machine. When I
try to run it i get the error "Error while trying to run project: Unable to
start debugging on the web server. The project is not configured to be
debugged."

Any help to fix this error is appreciated.

Thanks
Al

Hi Al,

Make sure you've set the "debug" attribute of the "compilation" element
to "true" in your Web.config.

Here's a link to some more resources:

Good luck.

What about opening IIS?

You could right-click the project, click properties.

On the 'Directory' tab, click the 'configuration' button & then the
'application debugging' tab & check the server-side box in the 'debugging
flags'

Click 'apply' (takes a while) & then click 'ok'

Run the project again & it will work fine.

I hope this helps
