Adrian Parker on 23 Aug 2006 06:57 When I try to profile a website in VS2005, I get the following error. Launch Error: The web site could not be configured correctly; getting ASP.NET process information failed. Requesting 'http://localhost:1740/ingenweb/VSEnterpriseHelper.axd' returned an error: Unable to connect to the remote server I've tried adding the following to web.config but it made no difference. <location path="VSEnterpriseHelper.axd"> <system.web> <authorization> <allow users="?" /> </authorization> </system.web> </location> I've also tried removing the following out of the web.config but again it made no difference. <authorization> <deny users="?" /> </authorization> Any ideas ? -- Adrian Parker Ingenuity At Work Ltd
From: Steven Cheng[MSFT] on 24 Aug 2006 03:16 Hello Adrian, From your description, you're getting some error when try launching the performance session to profile an ASP.NET application in VS 2005. As for the configuration setting in web.config you mentioned, I've also noticed that there're some web articles mentioend this. However, this setting is for those cases the ASP.NET application is using forms authentication, also, based on my research, the performance profiling tools in VS 2005 doesn't support profiling ASP.NET application using forms authentication currently. So is the application suffers the problem using forms authentication? If this is the case, I would suggest you consider temporarily turn the authentication to "windows" mode and then use the profiler to testing the pages in the application. If your application is not using forms authentication, we may have to perform some further tests againt it. As you mentioned, the appliation is currently hosted by file system project(in Test Webserver), you can try moving it into IIS server and profiling it through IIS server to see the result. Also, using IIS is the recommended approach for production testing/profiling since Test webserver is just a simple webserver for development only. In addition, would you provide the detailed steps on how you reproduce the error on your machine? You can create a new web project to see whether it also suffers the problem, and provide us the steps you create the performance profiler session and launch it .... Please feel free to let me know if there is anything I missed or if you got any other finding.

Yes, we're using forms authentication. Will this problem be sorted out soon ? Adrian
From: Steven Cheng[MSFT] on 25 Aug 2006 07:58 Thanks for your reply Adrian, I originally get this info from our enterprise tool team's engineer. I can help you ask him to see whether there is any means for forms authentication application. BTW, is it possible that you test individual page and turn off forms authentication temporarily?

Steven, Unfortunately not, there's too much initialisation done during the login process to enable us to run a page in isolation. Regards Adrian |
