Debugging Report Manager

Hi,
I have created a custom data processing extension that retrieves a Data
Table object from my DAL. It all works fine in the report designer, I can
preview the report and data is returned etc However when I deploy the report
and then try to access via the report manager web interface I get an error
has occurred during report processing... I can't for the life of me see what
is could be causing the error and I don't know how to debug this
Can anyone provide any useful tips/tricks?
ThanksMy bet is that dotnet security is tripping you up. When in development you
are the admin of the box and have all the rights you need to do anything.
The context of your assembly in production is different and you need to
setup the rights for the assembly. That is my guess anyway.

Debugging Custom Report Data Processing extension

Hi,

I've created our own custom report data processing extension and it works successfully. I also know how to debug the extension while in the Report Designer environment (in Visual Studio).

However, is it possible to debug the extension in the run-time mode. That is, when I run Report Manager to view the report that usees this extension.

Thank you very much

Yes, you should be able to attach a remote debugger to the IIS worker process, just like an ASP.NET application.|||Please help! I still don't know how to debug during run-time ... FYI, I'm using Windows 2003 Server. I can't seem to find the ASP.NET worker process ... am I missing anything?

I have no problems previewing the report data in report designer. However, when I try to run the report in report manager, I get this error:

"An error has occurred during report processing."

What could possibly be wrong? Any thoughts?

Thank you!!|||On Windows 2003, attach the debugger to w3wp.exe

debugging a Custom Data Processing Extension

How do I go about debugging a Custom Data Processing Extension written in VB
or C#? How do I tell the debugger which process to attach to?
