	Setup Target for kernel 1394 windbg debugging
	I find no documentation that tells how to do this with win7. Since it does'nt have a boot.ini file. How do I tell it to use 1394 for debugging? By Jeff - Nov 22 - 2 new of 2 messages

	Creating a debug heap when not in debugger?
	I know that when I start my app under windbg, the process heap is created with HEAP_TAIL_CHECKING_ENABLED, etc. I'd like to turn that on outside of windbg. I've tried using gflags to turn on "heap tail checking" (and every other kind of checking) for my image, but it seems those flags are utterly ignored if not... more » By DanKegel - Nov 21 - 2 new of 2 messages

	Bizarre behavior in WinDbg - Missing image name, possible paged-ou
	I have a program that I am executing in WinDbg (user mode unmanaged C++ console app) and am getting "Missing image name, possible paged-out or corrupt data" messages at odd places (like break points) when I run the program.

	NEWBIE: what is PROCESS_NAME in the !analyze output when "Only kernel address space is available"
	Hi, I read the windbg help page about "Using the !analyze Extension" and I found that in User-Mode the PROCESS_NAME field specifies the name of the process that raised the exception. In the Kernel-Mode section of the help page, PROCESS_NAME is not described. I think my crash dump is kernel-mode because it says "Kernel Summary... more » By uvts_...@yahoo.com - Nov 20 - 2 new of 2 messages

	Debug symbols for 2003R2 Server
	On the [link] page there are no separate symbols for 2003R2/SP2 server (X64), so I loaded the symbols for 2003 sp2 x64. I still can not load a dump file, I get Symbol file could not be found for ntdll.dll. The PDB is in the symbols directory and the path is pointed... more » By Scott - Nov 17 - 5 new of 5 messages

	How to configure source search path
	I have a simple question: is it possible to define the source lookup path so that if the debugger tries to find a file '<old_root>\a\b\c\file.cxx' it also tries the path '<some_other_root>\a\b\c\file. cxx'. Currently I have to add a new .srcpath entry whenever I encounter a file which is located in some other file directory.... more » By J.Weiss - Nov 16 - 2 new of 2 messages

	When creating a -hang dump from ADPlus I try to format some of the application critical areas so we can get an idea what went wrong without downloading the full dmp file.

WDFTester with debug on/off

Hi, I'm trying to resolve a driver issue with remote kernel debugging. A bugcheck occurs as a result of fault injection (FI) by WDFTester. The platform is Windows 7. The bugcheck does not appear if debug mode has been enabled (bcdedit /debug on) before running WDFTester, though. The method, WdfRequestForwardToIoQueue in my case, that causes the bugcheck is never FI... more »

	.net heap and stack
	This data is based on a MFC \ .NET 1.1 crash. 1. Why does DumpStackObject show an Exception but DumpHeap does not? 2. How can I view the content of Exception? Using DumpObj on the column value colon only yields "Not a managed object" output. What am I doing wrong? 0:014> !DumpHeap -type Exception succeeded... more » By RedLars - Nov 11 - 1 new of 1 message
