You can check the symbols path in the >bins with "dumpbin /pdbpath:verbose ph5.dll" from the VS prompt. dumpbin only works if you are in the directory where the DLL is (and reports the correct pdbpath). Outside the directory, dumpbin says it cannot find the DLL (even if you point %PATH% to it). >Then one can move the *.pdb to one of the paths, or override in DebugDiag >like "Tools=>Options=>Symbol search path". Silly design of DebugDiag. Why does not it look by default in the directory where the DLL is located? VC does it that way.... I am now putting then in c:\symcache, which seems to be the default directory. Edit: Google told me the full pdb-path is in the DLL, i.e. where it was built: C:\php-sdk\phpint64\x64\Debug\php5_debug.pdb. So probably not cleaning you build directories will work as well. Jan
