由于未加载符号，断点未命中

Question

I am trying to debug an issue with my JavaScript based Windows 8 Store app related to search activation. I have re-build and deployed again on my machine but for some reason the breakpoint in the activated method is not getting hit. It shows me message that "The breakpoint will not currently get hit. No symbols have been loaded for this document". Any idea what I may be doing wrong here?

My guess is that you're set to debug managed code and not script. Sometimes also being set to debug both managed and script will also cause this behavior.

In your HTML project's properties, navigate to the Debugging section and select Script Only . Please note that this will disable Managed code debugging, so you have to choose between debugging managed libraries or Scripts at a time. The following screenshot shows this setting.
