    I recently came across the same issue in my code-server (Version: 3.12.0 on Ubuntu 18.04). The lanch.json file seems doesn't work while debugging the Python code. The same problem also happened for this version when I tested the code-server on MacOS. But after I downgraded the code-server to Version 3.11.1, this issue was solved, which works for Linux and MacOS.

    @ianquu

    same there, downgrade to v3.11.1 solved

    @hxssgaa

    Encounter the same issue, please fix the error as it will impact the Python debugging as well

  4. added this to the Backlog milestone on Oct 28, 2021

    same here with php debugging... launch.json seems to be ignored. As a workaround, instead of downgrading, i added the launch configuration directly in the server settings.json

    Hi. We are affected by an issue that might be related to this.

    In our case, it is not like the configuration values are not resolved, but it seems like that the entire configuration object is empty. It doesn't take into account the selected run configuration.
    I have tried logging the entire object when our DebugConfigurationProvider is invoked, and in code server I get a {}, so not even the type, request or name are solved.
    When we create the entire configuration object (with arguments, no need to hardcode the values), the arguments are resolved and the debugger starts.

    Also, even when having multiple configurations in the launch.json file and no file selected, it asks the users which debug configuration they want to use, and suggests all installed debuggers, instead of the available ones

    We'll have to see if this is still an issue after upgrading VS Code in #4414

    I also had to downgrade the python extension to about 1 yr old after downgrading to 3.11.1

    @bbrendon have you tried in 4.0.0?

  11. bbrendon commented on Jan 4, 2022

    @bbrendon

    @jsjoeio Negatory. I'm scared to try different versions because something new always breaks.

    :/ we're hoping to get things more stable with the next release. It's a major release so expect some breaking changes, but moving forward, it should get better.
