Debugger opens then closes when hitting a breakpoint

dassa

Hi, I having an issue as stated above - basically I cannot get the debugger to run at all. I'm on the latest Windows 10 running Godot 3.2.3 stable. The issues I am having are - when running our code if an error is found the program stops, the console appears with a red error message for 2-3 seconds then disappears - if a breakpoint is set, the bugger opens at that line, a green block appears over the breakpoint, it shows for 2-3 seconds then exits debug mode

This makes it very difficult to trace logic bugs and real errors. I have searched for similar Godot problems, checked all project and editor properties (all seem OK), changed debug port (6007) to another, cleared Godot in our firewall, run Godot without any virus blocker running, all to no avail.

I believe it must a setting with our systems or other local settings clash otherwise there would be similar queries on forums. Any assistance (or solution) would be appreciated.

Thanks

Just one further point - I have loaded a very short test project into Godot and the debugger seems to work as it should within this project, In the problem project I am using the sqLite addon by 2shady4u. This is working well with no issues (except for the debugger issue). Could this be causing the debugger issue or clashing with the debugger ?

Thanks

Welcome to the forums @dassa!

I would see if you can try using the sqLite addon in the test project to determine if it is causing the issue or not. I do not think it would necessarily, but if its crashing then it could be crashing the debugger as well, which could lead to the situation you are seeing.

Thanks for the response and welcome...

I did further investigation last night and feel sure that sqLite is clashing with the debugger. In the current project - ran as is to ensure the debugger is still operating as stated above - commented out all references to use of the sqLite plug-in - ran the project and the debugger worked as it should... - just to clarify, I am not getting any crashes of Godot, just the non function of the debugger - only issues are my logic/coding errors

This to me, would indicate there is a clash with sqLite and the debugger. If this is the case, how can this be addressed ?

Is the sqLite a GDNative plugin, C# plugin, GDScript plugin, or something else?

If its a GDNative plugin, I think you can get the stack trace somehow, which should tell you where it crashes, but I haven't done enough GDNative work to say for sure. For C# and GDScript, you can try running the project from the Godot editor and it should then crash and tell you where the error occurred.

If you can, I might suggest reaching out to 2shady4u and see if they can help, as they might know how to debug what is going on

Its a GDNative plugin and yes, I will try to follow through with 2shady4u.

Thanks
