I am unable to debug al project in visual studio code. All symbols have been loaded and my launch.json is configured properly. About a couple of months ago I could debug my project, but now it doesn't work all of a sudden. Here is my launch.json:

{
    "version": "0.2.0",
    "configurations": [
        {
            "name": "RMSandbox",
            "type": "al",
            "request": "launch",
            "startupObjectId": 50410,
            "breakOnError": true,
            "breakOnRecordWrite": false,
            "launchBrowser": true,
            "enableSqlInformationDebugger": true,
            "enableLongRunningSqlStatements": true,
            "longRunningSqlStatementsThreshold": 500,
            "environmentType": "Sandbox",
            "environmentName": "RMSandbox2", //"RMSandbox",
            "tenant": "22af7074-bc85-420c-81cb-5b9de3ee5329",                        
            "numberOfSqlStatements": 10,
            "schemaUpdateMode": "ForceSync"
        },
        {
            "type": "al",
            "request": "launch",
            "name": "Publish",
            "startupObjectId": 143,
            "startupObjectType": "Page",
            "breakOnError": true,
            "launchBrowser": true,
            "enableLongRunningSqlStatements": true,
            "enableSqlInformationDebugger": true,
            "environmentType": "Sandbox",
            "environmentName": "RMSandbox2"
        }
    ]
}

The application is able to start when I hit run and debug and It opens a new browser. But when I set a break point, it doesn't hit it. The policy allowdebugging is set to true and I am debugging in sandbox environment.

Are you debugging in sandbox?

Also make sure that the app allowDebugging resource policy is set to true

"resourceExposurePolicy": {

"allowDebugging": true

},
