using !devnode 0 1

Hi all,

I’m getting an error in Windbg trying to do an !devnode 0 1. Windbg is
reporting
“Error retrieving address of IopRootDeviceNode”

I’m on win2ksp3 checked build and the version of Windbg I’m using is
6.2.0013.1. I also find a bunch of other extended commands don’t work,
possibly due to the same problem. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Howard Keller

Hi,

Sounds like a symbols problem to me. Are you sure they’re setup
correctly?

Regards,

-scott

Hi Scott,

No, I’m not sure I have the symbols set up properly. I see a number of errors trying to load symbols when I run. Not everything reports an error. What would you recommend I verify to make sure things are properly set up?

Thanks,

Howard

Are you using the Microsoft symbol server? It should handle getting all
the right symbols loaded for you. If not, follow the directions here and see
if it fixes your problems:

http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/ddk/debugging/symbols.mspx

If you’re already using the symbol server, then you can try doing a

!sym noisy
.reload

This should give you some insight into why WinDBG isn’t properly loading
symbols.

Hi Scott,

I believe Windbg is properly set up for using the symbol server.

Let me show you a strange sequence that just occured:

Why would it just suddenly start to work on the reload??

Hi all,

For some reason, it started working today. I was, and still am, using the
symbol server at Microsoft. Is it possible that there may have been a
“remote” problem that contributed to my error?

Thanks,

Howard

Scott,

I just discovered that if I bring up Windbg and NOT do a .reload, I run into the same problem with !devnode 0 1. After I do the .reload, !devnode 0 1 works ok.

Sounds like WinDBG just being the 'bag, sometimes I need to do the
