Sophos Firewall blocking debugging on VS 2013

Hi again,

We are having an issue with the firewall on our Developers machine. I just pushed sophos out to them and whenever they try to debug, they get an error. The firewall log doesn't say much. We found this article and it suggests unistalling and reinstalling the firewall.

https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/56ef23f8-5906-448e-b967-4da3bd2f981d/x64-unrecognized-error-occoured-in-the-windows-web-services-framework-vs-2013?forum=vsdebug

I am not sure this would work as they did have admin rights before Sophos was installed.

Do you have any other suggestions?

Thanks

  • Hello Jess,

    [t]he firewall log doesn't say much

    does it say at least something and what? What is the error (firewall or other) they get. The solution in the MSDN community isn't very clear (and perhaps not quite correct in the details) - is the solution to disable the firewall (and the user didn't have the necessary rights initially) or has the behaviour changed after reinstall?

    A blocked loop-back connection (if this is what's meant by a fake connection to emulate x64) should be recorded in the firewall logs together with the rule or the reason.
