    Cant find the reason for a .net job failing with unhandled exception

    A scheduled application which was running fine for years on production environment(production server) has started to fail on every schedule.

    The log on the event viewer is very generic which says something like

    "Common Language Runtime Debugging Services: Application has generated an exception that could not be handle"

    and

    "The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details."

    Using AUXSOURCE flag was of no help as it dint work in windows 2003 server.

    No patches or updates have been installed on this server recently and also other .net batch jobs are running fine.Can't find the reason that’s preventing only this job from running

    Any help in detecting the possible causes for this would be appreciated.

    The application runs on
    windows server 2003,stadand edition,service pack 2

    .net framework 1.1,vs-2003

    Thanks in advance!

    Press F7 to begin app profiling. You can have a look on the different notification which at the bottom side. Look properly you can find something in that. You can find the issue by looking at the loadlibrary calls. The error itself has information about the failure. There is a tool called Depency Walker. Use this tool to find out the missing dll. It can help you a lot here.

    Caelyn thanks for your reply.
    Since it is a production server, there s no development environment for the application (like VS).Hence cannot use app profiling. Also the same job runs well in other servers and other .net jobs are running well in this server.

    I have no idea of dependency walker.What does it do and can it be run on a production server? Also i have no privileges to install any applications on the server.

    Please suggest.
