Please let me know if this has been asked before, I wasn’t able to find any questions on this subject:-

I need to determine the inner exception of an exception thrown on a computer with the .net framework installed but not Visual Studio (nor is it possible to install Visual Studio on the computer). How can I examine this inner exception?

Note a few points:

  • It’s no good running Visual Studio from another computer as the problem lies actually on the box; it’s a heisenbug of the first order.
  • I know WinDbg is an option, however I need this done quickly and unfortunately I imagine the time taken to learn WinDbg sufficiently to get this done will outweigh the time I have – however if anybody has step-by-step instructions on this I would be interested.
  • I have full admin permissions and can install anything that isn’t too big (the problem with installing VS is that there is insufficient hard drive space).

Thanks!

    Have you had a look at MDBG? It may take you a while to get around but is fairly straight forward.

    Also DbgClr may be an option, I think its still supposed to be in the SDK somewhere.
