m using vs2005/.net 2.0 and sql server2000. I just want to see whether it gets into application_start so that i can put some code.I m putting breakpoint in debug mode. But its not entering.

Re: Application_Start not firing
 

when you set break point in global.asax, is there any error message comming when you mouse hover on brekpoint sign while debugging ?

there may be the case that application is not compiled properly, and it's no hitting the breakpoint.

try this out if that is the case.

1) close vs 2005

2) reset IIS

3) remove all files from C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\Temp orary ASP.NET Files\[Your Application Name]

4) rebuild your solution and try to debug again.
