Blazor app crashes when debugging after windows secutiry updates

Rossend Bruch 255

Afert 2023 march 14 updates my app stop debugging. If I start it without debugging it works ok, if I start it debugging it crashes at startup. The error is the following:

Microsoft.WebAssembly.Diagnostics.DevToolsProxy[0] DevToolsProxy::Run: Exception System.AggregateException: One or more errors occurred. (Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection. (Parameter 'index')) ---> System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Index was out of range.

Exact same thing started happening to me this morning. I have tried VS 2022 17.4.4, 17.5.0, and 17.5.2.

If I don't have any breakpoints when starting up, it will run, but if I put a breakpoint during runtime, the app becomes very prone to crashing and closing again.

It seems to not happen to my colleague who is still on Windows 10 21H2.

Switching to Edge doesn't work.

What's the KBxxxxxxx number of the update that broke it for you?

Don't know the solution but it's working for us if we switch to Edge instead of Chrome

I was having this same issue. Anytime I would run the program with breakpoints in my code it would crash.

Removing all breakpoints before running seems to work as a temporary fix for me

I am having the same problem I thought I did something wrong but it seems like that not the case, I can run other blazor WASM project on debug mode but there is that one project wont run in debug mode but it runs fine if i run it without debug

Same issue, after just upgrading Edge to 111.0.1661.41 both Edge and chrome has this behaviour. Deleting breakpoints works.

We are receiving the same error with .NET Blazor Web Assembly 6.0.15. Also confirmed that deleting breakpoints resolves the error.

I'm having the same issue. App runs when I delete all breakpoints, not otherwise.

I am somewhat relieved that it is probably not my program.

I just don't understand why a newly created project works anyway.

Firefox works by the way, but can't be debugged either. But at least it does not crash...

I too am having the exact same issue. Starting in debug mode with any breakpoints causes crash. Starting first and then adding breakpoints works, but is very annoying.

I'm having this exact same issue.

As some others have already stated, If I don't have any breakpoints set when running the project, it runs fine. If I have any breakpoints set before running, it will crash immediately on start up.

If I set any breakpoints after it successfully starts, they will work for a while and then stop working inexplicably.

This same behavior happens in both Chrome and Edge. If I use Firefox, the project runs but it fails to load symbols for the breakpoints.

My colleague who is not experiencing this issue is running on a different OS build to me.

Colleague's Windows specifications:

Version: 21H2

OS Build: 19044.2604

My Windows Specifications:

Version: 21H2

OS Build: 19044.2728

Same issue. Wondering if Chromium is involved somehow. Chrome broke first, then Brave was working, it broke for me 12 hours later and then Edge was still working, now Edge is now broken. I looked at the modified dates on the applications and they all seem to be going through an auto-update.

Not sure its the cause, but it is weird that even after the windows updates, I still had some browser working and then they each failed over a 24 hour period.

I am having exact same issue, everything was working perfectly over the weekend, I updated Visual Studio to 17.5.1 - On Monday I could no longer debug my Blazor application. It looks like it errors when redirecting to auth server. I have managed to obtain the following error from Console.

I've tried rolling back and uninstalling, working on different branches. Visual Studio. everything!!!

I am still running on .net 6 with most Nuget packages @ 6.0.15 I don't really want to upgrade to .net 7 as it's not LTS.

We're having the same issue at our office. Making development on our flagship product nearly impossible. Hoping for a quick fix.

This may be due to a recent Chrome regression. We are tracking the issue on the .NET & Blazor side at https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/issues/83452. Fixes are in the process of being deployed both from Chrome and a compensating fix in our debugging tools.

Just a heads up, if you need help finding all of your breakpoints like I did. Hold the keys [Ctrl] + [Alt] +B down to bring up the Breakpoint Manager.

Same issue here.

It works if i delete all breakpoints... In both debug or release.

It also works when using Firefox, even if i have some breakpoints defined.

So it's seems to be related to Chromium.

[Edit]

Just had an update from Edge (111.0.1661.43) and now... It works with Edge, even if i add breakpoints before debug !

Have this issue with chromium v.111 In both edge and chrome. Current workaround is using another chrome version. Downgrade or use beta Channel of chromium

I was having the same issue. Debugging a blazor wasm would immediately stop after edge loaded. Prior to yesterday, this has been working for years. Removing all the break points would "fix" the issue and I could add break points once it was running. I just updated Edge to version 111.0.1661.44 and I can once again debug with break points already set!

I have had this issue too.. took me ages to realise because I unfortunately thought it was to do with updating VS. Wasted best part of a day trying to understand the problem.

I did find that if I simply disabled all the breakpoints I could then re-enable them as needed.

I am able to use breakpoints if I add them after running the project.

It is a chrominum issue. Las update breaks the solution when starting a debug session with breakpoints. Adding them after run works.

That's OK (well the whole situation is terrible) but if the page is reloaded it crashes so not suitable for debugging on load events.

Is this problem has been reported to Microsoft? The solution to add breakpoint after loading is worthless if I have to debug the loading page which is my case.

Does someone has a solution to debug loading page?

Chrome beta did the trick for me too.

Because it can be installed aside of the released version of chrome, it's ok.

Install Chrome beta

Restart VisualStudio

Change Browser in VisualStudio to "Chrome beta" (expand the debug-button -> Web Browser)

After updating Visual Studio to version 17.5.2, it's working now. Update it to the latest version.

This did not work for me - with Edge at least. Updating Edge today (through Help and feedback\About from 3 dot menu in edge) fixed it.

I can confirm. Same here.

Removing all Breakpoints Chrome + Edge are working again.

Just adding a single Breakpoint will revert it to unusable.

I feel a bit back-kicked onto ASP-Times, where Debugging worked only by outputting Variables in between the HTML-Code. I don't know if I should lough or cry...

Salut, Marcel
