How can I connect VS Profiler 2012 to an ASP.NET solution when the menu item is disabled?

Question

I followed the instructions to try to profile an ASP.NET solution using Visual Studio 2012 Profiler: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms182384.aspx

However, when I open the context menu, the "Attach / Detach" menu item is disabled.

What do I need to do to enable this feature?

Apparently, you cannot attach VS Profiler to the process when using the toolkit, since the binary must be modified by the profiler and then run.

However, you can use the command line: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/forums/en-US/vstsprofiler/thread/f2f291da-8e83-4fa4-b4cb-a184965bfe16
