Emulator Debugger problems - VS.net 2003 pocket pc

[charlie]

Hi,

I am unable to debug apps on the Pocket PC emulator for VS.net 2003. I have
installed the SP2 for .net framework and I do not have ActiveSync or a
device connected to my machine. Here are the related issues I am having:

1) Project deploys, but no launch icon in start menu is created
2) The 'Start Without Debugging' option on the 'Debug' menu actually works
fine. VS deploys the app to the emulator and launches it.
3) The 'Start' option on the 'Debug' menu does not work. I get the following
error:
"Error while trying to run project: Unable to start debugging."
"Unable to start program '...'."


Anyone out there encountered this problem?!?

1) This is normal. EVC was by default deploying the application into
\Windows\Start Menu. VS.2003 deploys it into \Program Files\<Project Name>.
You can change this in the project properties. Neither version creates a
shortcut for you.

3) Do you have at least one network card in your computer? Is it connected
to the network? If the answer to either is no, you can either correct that
or install MS Loopback adapter
