Waiting for connection to localhost:50327. Please ensure that the browser was started successfully with remote debugging port opened. Port cannot be opened if Chrome having the same User Data Directory is already launched.
This is the third time I've ran into this problem, each time I've spent a few hours trying to fix only for it to resolve itself and not know why.
I've tried the following solutions:
- Deleting web-browsers.xml and other.xml:
- Checking ports aren't in the exclusion ranges:
Start Port End Port
---------- --------
5357 5357
49152 49251
50000 50059 *
52550 52649
59100 59100 *
65154 65253
65254 65353
65354 65453
* - Administered port exclusions.
- Reinstalling Chrome / Webstorm (2021.2.4) with Windows restart
- Deleting the Chrome User Data Directory / Pointing it to my person User Data Directory
I have no idea what's wrong. I'd greatly appreciate some help in figuring out the cause of this to avoid more wasted hours the next time I run into this issue.
Thanks

Chrome 111.* released last week rejects the requests unless started with
--remote-allow-origins=*; the fix is available in 2023.1 Beta.See https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WEB-59211/Cant-attach-debugger-to-Chrome-Dev-111-Invalid-handshake-response-getStatus-403-Forbidden
Thanks Elena, it worked for me. Chrome version 111.0.5563.64
Worked for me as well. Thanks Elena!

It works for me too. Thanks Elena.
For you WebStorm users out there, I got the fix by updating to 2022.22.5.
I encountered the same issue using IntelliJ IDEA 2024.3 (Ultimate Edition) on Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS. I resolved it by terminating leftover debugging sessions from previous runs. The following command worked for me:
kill -9 $(ps aux | grep -- '--remote-debugging-port' | awk '{print $2}')This command identifies and forcefully stops any processes using the
--remote-debugging-portargument. After running it, the problem was resolved.
