Trouble Loading local symbols in WinDBG - Kernel Driver

Question

I cannot figure out why my local symbols are not loading for a kernel driver compiled using WDK and VS2013.
I build the driver and place myDriver.pdb in C:\Symbols\local, and copy the myDriver.sys to my virtual machine. Using VirtualKD I start the debugger, install the driver, and look at my loaded modules or try to set a breakpoint on myDriver!DriverEntry. When I try the breakpoint I get:

BP expression myDriver.sys!DriverEntry could not be resolved, adding deferred bp

My symbol path is:

C:\Symbols\local;srv*C:\Symbols\symcache*http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols

When I try to .reload /f myDriver.sys I get:

kd> .reload /f myDriver.sys

"myDriver.sys" was not found in the image list.
Debugger will attempt to load "myDriver.sys" at given base 00000000`00000000.

Please provide the full image name, including the extension (i.e. kernel32.dll)
for more reliable results.Base address and size overrides can be given as
.reload <image.ext>=<base>,<size>.

DBGHELP: myDriver - private symbols & lines

Any ideas as to how I can fix this? Thanks!

Answer 1

Because driver isn`t loaded yet. Deffered bp is OK. They will be resolved on driver load. This is normal behavior, no need to "fix this".
