Debugging Silverlight Applications with IE9 Beta

Question

I spent some time debugging a SL3 application with VS 2010 in IE9 beta today and noticed some quirks. Sometimes when you start the Silverlight application in VS, it does not load in the browser, but updating from F5 tends to fix the problem. In addition, sporadic script errors occur that trigger a debug dialog - they also seem to be fixed by refreshing the page. Has anyone encountered these issues and found a fix?

EDIT: My most common error: Error: Could not load the platform on the client side of ASP.NET Ajax.

Answer 1

I don’t understand why, but someone without a name in Silverlight forums found a solution that worked for me:

Just add or uncomment this entry in your hosts file (% SystemRoot% \ system32 \ drivers \ etc \ hosts): 127.0.0.1 localhost

Answer 2

I noticed this also with Silverlight 4, but also when I started a simple web project.
