dr. watson where did you go.

Q

quincy451

I used to use doctor watson even though my application was developed
using borland. I was running under windows NT at the time. Now it
never runs.

I am running windows 2000 SP4. I have done drwtsn32 -i. I have
edited the registry. I have rebooted. And every time I fire off a
program that shuts down with a known exception as a test, I never get
drwtsn32 to run or produce a log file.

Any ideas, Thanks,
David

Have a look at the string value
"Debugger"=
in
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AeDebug

yes it is:
drwtsn32 -p %ld -e %ld -g

Auto right above it is set to 1.


I also have (Default) in AeDebug and I also have UserDebuggerHotKey
but that is from
userdump.exe. Which is installed but not in use. (Default) is set to
1. It was originally not set
to anything.

Thanks

yes it is:
drwtsn32 -p %ld -e %ld -g

drwtsn32 -p %ld -e %ld -g"
Ok yesterday this worked for me on my test box, when I ran a console
mode program on an incorrect data file. So for me at least it seems
to work for console mode programs but not for win32 GUI programs. Not
sure what is up with that, but that does confirm most of the
configuration type stuff.
I think...

Thanks,
David
