MSMQ

I can access a private queue on server A from my PC. I need to debug my windows service that reads from the private queue on the server. Works OK if I run on the service on the server. If I run it locally I get an exception which is null but has a strck trace
StackTrace " at System.Messaging.MessageQueue.MQCacheableInfo.get_ReadHandle()\r\n at System.Messaging.MessageQueue.ReceiveAsync(TimeSpan timeout, CursorHandle cursorHandle, Int32 action, AsyncCallback callback, Object stateObject)\r\n at System.Messaging.MessageQueue.BeginReceive()\r\n at Dbt.Messaging.Service.Service.ProcessMessages() in D:\\Projects\\DBT\\Messaging\\Dbt.Messaging\\Dbt.Messaging.Service\\Service.cs:line 407" string

Inner exception shows
_COMPlusExceptionCode -532459699

Server is Win 2003 client is Windows 7. I went throught add windows feature and Message queueing selecting every checkbox! apart from one that mentions Queueing over HTTP.

I am using this naming for queue
FormatName:Direct=OS:ServerA\Private$\dbt_messaging_sms

Anybody has a clue?

Thank you cefranklin

If only I knew that now. It has been a week since I last posted the question so I have changed my code a lot. I have been working on my PC and debugging the code as non service. Once dopne which is soon I will move to server and see what happens and feedback here

Not abondoned! I am still waiting to move my service to the actual server. Unlikely to do that until after the new year (early Jan)

Thank you for the reminder

Learnt to debug without the service locally. That is all I needed really
