raspberry pi 2 windows iot remote debugger does not appear to be running

Question

I'm trying to debug an example app on a raspberry pi 2 using windows 10 build 10074 with VS 2015RC.

I've successfully done this before but I'm currently getting this error re: The Visual Studio 2015 Remote Debugger (MSVSMON.EXE) does not appear to be running.

Seems like it would be simple to fix this but I can't find anything specific to VS2015 and IoT.

Answer 1

The remote debugger should be started automatically when the RPi2 is booted. However, I too have seen this issue. If you do not wish to reboot your device then you should connect to your RPi2 via the PowerShell interface. Once you have connected enter ps. If you do not see one or more instances of msvsmon running then you can start the debugger by changing directory to c:\RDBG and running the command StartOneCoreRdbg.cmd. This will never return to a command prompt though.

Properties Project ->Debug->Autehntication Mode: Universal.

Try, it's work.
