Debuger.Lanch(), Trace.Assert(fail) not working

Question

Hi!

(Note, this question has been marked answered in http://stackoverflow.com/questions/985581/debugging-sharepoint-timer-jobs but I'm still having trouble)

I'm unable to debug my SharePoint timer job. Usually I can do this by setting one of these:

• Debugger.Lanch()
• Trace.Assert(false)

But a dialog is not shown. I have a log4net OutputDebugStringAppender so that I can use DebugView to monitor output, and I can see that the DEBUG ASSERTION FAILED written to the debug log. I've tried removing the appender, in case it could mess up something, but with no luck.

(Rebuild, restart, IIS reset, Service reset, pdb files in assembly is done)

But why is not a dialog shown? I really need to debug this timer job :-)

I'm very thankful for any ideas
