Hello,

I am trying to debug a a .NET CF 2.0 application on a Windows Mobile
Smartphone (Cingular 2125) using VS2005 on Windows Vista. I do have
the Windows Mobile Device Center installed, but am getting this
exception while trying to run the program. I am using the internet
passthrough via USB. Is there a documented way to get the passthrough
working on Vista?

Thanks,
Sunil

Hello Sunil,

Assuming that you've checked the URL and it's valid, the easiest way to check
if this is a Vista-specific issue would be to simply run the appliaction
while the device is connected to another machine running XP...

Hi Tomer,

The USB passthrough did work under XP, and the URL is valid.

Thanks,

Hello,

I have the same problem running Windows Vista.

What I notice is that:
- If I put my Pocket PC in the cradle, it gets connected in the Mobile
Device Center
- As soon as I start debugging, the Mobile Device Center is Not Connected.

This behavior was not so in Active Sync 4.1 on Windows XP.

Anyone know a solution?

Thanks,
Guillaume
