Exception System.AccessViolationException when profiling app

tobias.schittkowski

Hi!
I have a VB.NET app written with VS2005 (German) (Winforms).
When I try do profile the application, it encounters an error:

System.AccessViolationException

Hi Tobias,

Oh dear. Well, ANTS Profiler may be encountering a new bit of Intermediate Language that it does not understand because it is an older version of Profiler. You could try upgrading to version 2.71 from our FTP site at ftp://ftp.red-gate.com/old/ants, or you could try it with a demo of version 3. It is possible to download ANTS Profiler 3 from our website and install it without interfering with the previous version.

If it doesn't work in v3, there are some post-release updates I can send for it, but I am afraid the v2 code is locked down and I cannot support it any more.

Hi!

I still have the error in the release 2.71 when I try to access a postgres database, could you provide the post-release updates, so that I can try these?

Thanks!

Tobias

Hi Tobias,

I will email the update to your email address. I'm afraid that if it doesn't solve the problem, then you'll need version 3+.

Hi!

the update had no effect, I will order the update to 3.0.

Hi!

I finally received the update to Version 3.1, but I still get the error
System.AccessViolationException

This is becoming quite a problem for me, as I have to find some bottlenecks...

Regards,

Hi Tobias,

I have a patched core2.dll for version 3.1 that may solve the problem if the problem is a failure to read or write protected memory, which I think is the same meaning as "AccessViolationException".

Can I attach it and send it to your email address?

I think, this is the same error message

Thank you for the patch, it works now!
