cannot start profiling asp.net applications .net 1.1

  Hi,
  
  I'm guessing you're running on Windows 2003 Server there, in which case could you check you have at least Service Pack 1 installed?
  
  Thanks,
  Rob

  Good one! This happens when you profile Windows 2003 64-bit editions without SP1 installed. Here are the details and workaround:

  Thanks for this.
  We are on Windows2003 without SP1, which I am installing now.
  
  But it is not the 64 bit edition

  Hi,
  
  The issue in the KB article Brian referenced does actually apply to 32-bit editions of Windows 2003 as well, so hopefully that should still solve your problem.
  
  Thanks,
  Robert

  Interesting... why would you disable folder redirection on a 32-bit system, given folder redirection wouldn't be necessary?

  I think technically we didn't need to, but the logic is - from what I remember - "If it's not explicitly running in WOW64 mode (i.e. forced to 32-bit), disable folder redirection".
  
  I guess it's a slight bug, but not one that appears unless you're pre-SP1.

  Is there a work around that does not involve installing SP1 ?
  
  Could take a while on my customers server
  
  thanks

  Brian's KB suggestion of forcing 32-bit (even on a 32-bit server) I believe should fix it, though I haven't tried this myself for a while.
