This error means that the remote debugger service is running under a user account that cannot authenticate when it tries to connect to the computer that you are debugging from. This error may occur when remote debugging using the legacy debugging engine, and the remote debugger is running as a service.

The following table shows what accounts can access the computer:

Scenario LocalSystem account Domain account Local accounts that have the same username and password on both computers
Both computers on the same domain Yes Yes Yes
Both computers on domains that have two-way trust No No Yes
One or both computers on a workgroup No No Yes
Computers on different domains No No Yes

In addition:

  • The account you run the Visual Studio Remote Debugger service under should be an administrator on the remote computer so that it can debug any process.

  • The account also has to be granted the Log on as a service privilege on the remote computer that is using the Local Security Policy administrative tool.

  • If you are using a local account access the computer, you must run the Visual Studio Remote Debugger service under a local account.

To correct this error

  1. Make sure the Visual Studio Remote Debugger service is correctly set up on the remote computer. For more information, see Remote Debugging.
