Additionally want to demonstrate that using the version 0.7.7 I was able to debug the spec:

[KartikPhrael]

We are also facing this issue. All of us will really appreciate it if you guys can prioritize this please !

[sriv]

@0vid1u @KartikPhrael - can you try and see if debugging works on vscode with gauge,java plugins installed?

Also, in the logs folder, do you see any further details? Is there an api.log and does that have any details? There may also be .out files that contain the output from the java process.

I tried creating a new gauge+java project and I am able to run debug fine. Here's my current gauge version on windows:

Gauge version: 1.2.1
Commit Hash: 5a3ffeae

Hi @sriv ,

I have tried to debug with vs-code, looks like it works...

IntelliJ doesn't want to start debugging and show timeout connecting java.

Facing the same issue for a while.
@zabil Appreciate it if you can prioritize a quick fix for this.

Considering this has been an open issue for so long, I'll be recommending to my company that we switch to a different framework. This is unacceptable.

Is there a solution for this issue?
