Breakpoint doesn't work

I've got a breakpoint in a script task. The script task executes successfully but doesn't break.

Short and sweet this one. Anyone any idea why it might not?

Nah, I know this has worked in the past and I've read posts today from people that have had it working.

-Jamie|||We don't support breakpoints in script data flow component in this release.

The script task breakpoints should work, except when the package is executed using 64-bit runtime on x64 machines.

Jamie - are you using CTP 16? I remember in some older builds the script task breakpoints did not work if the PreCompile property of the task was true. I think it is fixed in CTP 16 (but it could be after CTP 16 - for RTM, not sure).|||

Hi Michael,
Yeah, I am using Sept CTP/IDW 16 and I do have PreCompile=TRUE.

The package is at the office and I am currently at home so I'll check this out (i.e. set PreCompile=FALSE) on monday.

If you press F5 the code then continues and doesn't break on the break point again, even though the statement with the breakpoint is executed again.

I thought F5 ran the code and if a breakpoint is found it should stop?|||Is it true that breakpoints won't work in a script component?

I just wrote a script source component to reorder the columns in incoming CSV's based on the column names in the first row.

I set some break points to debug, but they get ignored every time I try to run it. My "precompile" flag is set to false per some earlier posts, but that doesn't seem to affect the issue.|||SSIS does not currently support breakpoints in script components.

You will need to put some logging information in your script component see my post http://www.sqljunkies.com/WebLog/simons/archive/2005/08/03/SSIS_Script_Component_Debugging.aspx
