Description

Hi!
After updating visual studio yesterday to version 17.14.0, I can no longer debug android application.

I get the following error when I try to debug the application:

`
The program 'MauiApp2.dll' has exited with code 0 (0x0).
New vsdbg debugger process created for project 'C:\Users\workc\source\repos\MauiApp2\MauiApp2.csproj'...

Did you find any workaround?

Everything I tried didn't work.

Relevant log output

Some problem for me.

After yesterday's update I can't debug any Android project

[rdsfernanda]

I also have the same problem after the update

[ArtefactoDev]

I disabled the following feature::

I restarted and it worked again.
Apparently that was the problem.

[jonathanpeppers]

They've migrated from the Mono debugger to the same debugger technology the rest of Visual Studio uses. It should be an improvement going forward, but there could be a bug here.

/cc @mauroa @emaf

[jonathanpeppers]

Does anyone experiencing this, remember checking this box?

It should be unchecked by default if you are using VS 17.14 stable.

[paulocarinhena]

I don't remember changing this.

But unchecking it returned it to normal.

[ArtemSPavlenko]

Mine was unchecked by default, however I manually turned it on to try it on a project which has been migrated from Xamarin. Unable to debug the project with the output showing "The vsdbg debug session for project ... has been stopped".

Was hoping to see some performance improvements in debugging the migrated MAUI Android application but will be keeping it off for now.
