Debugger calls AD7Engine Finalized too soon

[mousetraps]

Copied from @purell #246 (comment)

@mousetraps : I did what you said about the "Diagnostic Info" windows and this is what I got when the debugger doesn't start :

[20:48:26.2699168] --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[20:48:26.2769168] AD7Engine Created (25640749)
[20:48:26.2769168] AD7Engine Called SetRegistryRoot
[20:48:26.2769168] AD7Engine Called SetLocale
[20:48:26.2769168] AD7Engine LaunchSuspended Called with flags 'LAUNCH_ENABLE_ENC' (25640749)
[20:48:27.0039168] AD7Engine Finalized (25640749)

Normaly before the Finalized line we are suppose to the the debugger trying to connect (Debugger connecting to URI: tcp://localhost:....) but the log stop there and the action too.

By the way, is it helping you more ?

My Configuration :

• Windows 7 64 Pro
• Visual Studio PRO Ultimate 2013
• Node v0.12.0
• Last NTVS installled, from https://github.com/Microsoft/nodejstools/releases/download/v1.1.Dev-3.1.2016/NTVS.Dev.2016-03-01.VS.2013.msi

This problem is more than annoying now, I have to relaunch Visual Studio 2013 a lot of time per hours while developing. I think that in a day I can relaunch it 100 times ! Even if I don't like Webstorm, I think that I will come back to it very shortly :(

Maybe we should re-open the case ?

I don't know if it could help but I notice that If I stop the debugger using Visual Studio menu [Debug + Stop Debugging] the problem occurred more frequently than stopping the program by closing the console. If I'm only closing the console each time the problem occur rarely.

@purell To unblock yourself, try using VS 2015 Update 2 and NTVS 1.2 Alpha. I've tried to repo the issue using the latest versions and Node v0.12.0, but was not able to.

Either way, I think we should add more diagnostic logging to the AD7Engine so we can better investigate this sort of problem.

Closing. @purell please give our most recent releases a try and let me know if you are still seeing this issue.

Thanks.

Hi, I've got this same issue and it's always been like this on my PC (since I started using Node Tools quite a long time ago), it seems to be worse with the 1.2 release. My config is below and this is the diagnostics log when the debugger refuses to start.
