Transact SQL Debugger Problem

  • Folks,

    Last week, we have been using the Transact-SQL Debugger just fine on a number of PCs.  The PCs are configured with the SQL 2K SP3 client tools and we are connecting to a SQL 2K SP3 server.  Debugger was working just fine.

    This week, we had XP SP2 installed on our desktops.  Now it would appear this has caused the Debugger to break.  When we try to debug a SP, this is the error that is returned.

    Server: Msg 504, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_sdidebug, Line 1

    [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Unable to connect to debugger on DHSSQLD1 (Error = 0x800706ba). Ensure that client-side components, such as SQLDBREG.EXE, are installed and registered on 210094146DLRC. Debugging disabled for connection 90.

    Has anyone noticed this or has an explanation as to why the Debugger all the sudden stopped working on several PCs?

    Thanks in advance!

     

  • You might try a google search.  I got a few hits on "SQL Debugger Problem windows XP".  Lots of different reasons for it.

  • Looks like here is the problem, however no fix I guess...

  • Debugger can be frustrating.  Keep this command around.  It doesn't sound like your problem, but it's helped me out before.  Not in BOL, but I'm sure the heads here could shed light.

    Exec sp_sdidebug 'legacy on'
