SYMPTOMS
After you successfully debug Active Server Pages (ASP) pages for a few debugging sessions, you may receive the error message

Unable to set server into correct debugging state

automatically. You may not be able to debug ASP pages. Do you want to

continue launching the debugger?

or the debugger might stop breaking on breakpoints.



CAUSE
The packages that Visual InterDev creates in Microsoft Transaction Server on the Web server are created but never destroyed, and the identity of the packages is set to the user "Y". This is because the IWAM_Servername is not synchronized between the usermanager and the Internet Information Server (IIS) metabase.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, resynch the IWAM_Servername's password between the usermanager and the IIS metabase. To do so, follow the instructions provided in the following Microsoft Knowledge Base article:

195956 Cannot Set AppRoot OutProc, MTS Package Identity Set to 'Y'



STATUS
This behavior is by design.
