# Debugging Problem

By Roy Osherove April 15, 2003 In [.Net Original](https://osherove.com/blog/category/net-original)

**Historical article** · Originally published April 15, 2003; technical details may be outdated.

I got this comment about debugging Web Services:

"_I am trying to debug a C# application and when I step into a web serivce all of the breakpoints stop working.

Can you help?

Scott_ "

I can't. can you?

I'll post the answer as an addition to the [**Resolving debugger problems**](http://dotnetweblogs.com/Rosherove/Story/3695.aspx) Article.
