1.00 1.50 1.51 1.52 WINDOWS kbtool kbprb --------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - The integrated debugger included with: Microsoft Visual C++ for Windows, versions 1.0, 1.5, 1.51, and 1.52 --------------------------------------------------------------------- SYMPTOMS ======== When you load an application into the debugger, the following error message appears: Could not load debuggee. File not found (2). CAUSE ===== The error message occurs when some file(s) needed for the application to be debugged (debuggee) can not be found at load time. For example, if the application requires a DLL and the DLL is not in your current working directory or any of the directories on your PATH, the debugger displays the error message. It is actually Windows that fails to load the application on behalf of the debugger. The (2) is the return code from LoadModule(). RESOLUTION ========== To allow the debugger to find the files, either: - Place the files in your current working directory -or- - Add the directory containing the files to your PATH.
