Error in Python Debugger (debugpy) in VSCode

[songsong0425]

Hi, always thank you for your effort.
I'm in trouble using the Python extension in VSCode.

A few minutes ago, I installed the extension with v2024.0.0 and tried to debug the python file.
But I counted the 2 cases of error.
1. "type": "python" in launch.json
It evoked the problem: 'This configuration will be deprecated soon. Please replace python with debugpy to use the new Python Debugger extension'. I fully understand this error message since the new version of the extension contains automatically the Python Debugger.

2. "type": "debugpy" in launch.json
After I changed the type, I saw the other problem: 'The debug type is not recognized. Make sure that you have a corresponding debug extension installed and that it is enabled.' I don't know why this error is evoked since my Python extension version is the latest one.

If anyone knows how to deal with this problem, please let me know.
Thank you for reading!

Do you have the Python debugger extension installed?

You pointed me to the right path, there was an error in the installation of the extension. Thank you!

So first it was the formatter, now its the debugger...

congratulations on completely disabling python development in vscodium.

(and no, i will not use your telemetry-ridden version)

I don't know what you're referring to about "the formatter", but we don't publish builds to Open VSX so if there are installation issues that's outside our control. This and the debugger extension is open source, so you are welcome to fork it and modify it however you want.
