I cannot get the debugger to stop at breakpoints when my project is using a virtual environment created using the Python venv module.
I have tried specifying the absolute path to Python in the pythonPath property in launch.json and launching VS Code from the command line, as suggested in issues #91 and #148 but still cannot get it to work.
The code in this example (a simple print statement) debugs fine when a project is not created in a venv.
Environment data
VS Code version: 1.11.2
Python Extension version: 0.6.3
Python Version: 3.6.0
OS and version: MacOS X 10.11.6
Actual behavior
Debugger runs and output is written to Debug Console, but breakpoints are not hit.
Expected behavior
Debugger should break on breakpoints.
Steps to reproduce:
cd ~/Projectspython3 -m venv TestVenvcd TestVenvsource bin/activateecho 'print("Hello, world!")' > test.pycode .- Open
test.py in the editor
- Apply attached launch.json with absolute path to Python
- Switch back to
test.py, add a breakpoint to line 1 and run debugger using F5
- Observe the output in Debug Console despite the breakpoint having no effect
Settings
Your launch.json (if dealing with debugger issues):
{
"version": "0.2.0",
"configurations": [

"name": "Python",
"type": "python",

"env": {},
"envFile": "${workspaceRoot}/.env",
"debugOptions": [
"WaitOnAbnormalExit",
"WaitOnNormalExit",
"RedirectOutput"
]
}
]
}
Your settings.json:
No settings.json file in the project.
