No applications show up to monitor

Post by [email protected] »

After starting any .net application the application reference never shows up in the "Monitor Applications" section. The Example application does not show up either after starting.

Do you have antivirus/firewall software installed? Communication with profiled application is performed via socket on local port. Possibly, it has been blocked by such software.

I am not running any local firewall.

When running the sample application the message is :

"There's no application running at localhost with profiler agent configured to listen on port 1225"

This is while the test application is clearly running.[/img]

Can you connect via "File | Connect to Remote Application...", entering "localhost:1225"? For the demo application the port is chosen automatically, so please change "1225" to the value shown in the message ""There's no application running at localhost..."

Is there a solution for this yet. I am having the same problem. Is there a way to change which port the app uses?
Thanks

Tobbe, please provide more information about your VirtualBox environment.

What is host OS (full version)? The guest is Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600], right?

Tobbe, I've managed to reproduce this problem in similar VirtualBox environment only in case when .NET framework was not installed when you install profiler.

Do you have .NET framework (at least 1.1) installed? If .NET framework is installed, please try to reinstall profiler.

Your absolutly right, I installed the profiler first, then the framework!

Will try your solution later and report back.
