Good morning, Elena,

I had a meeting with our senior management. 

We need the fix for this problem very soon. This is hindering our progress and would greatly appreciate a release with these fixes in it.  Can we have a fix either today or Monday? Considering that "running debugger" is one of the most important features of your software/product and I am sure many off your other customers are waiting for your software to be operational again. 

I would greatly appreciate your team's support on this matter.

Thanks,

Farshid

The fix was backported to 173.* branch (see 'Fixed in Builds' field), so it will be included in the nearest 2017.3.3 EAP (https://confluence.jetbrains.com/display/WI/WebStorm+EAP) that can be expected next week. Please follow WebStorm blog (http://blog.jetbrains.com/webstorm/) and Twitter (https://twitter.com/webstormide) to be notified when it's available

Great, thanks a lot for your support.  I look forward to the release. 

Have a wonderful weekend,

Farshid

Hello Elena,

I hope you had a nice weekend. 

I tried to vote for the issue so I would get notification on this fix but it doesn't allow me. It's say: You cannot vote for resolved issues.

Is the code with the fix released yet? If not, could you tell me when please, and also notify when it's released.

Thanks,

Farshid

No, the EAP that includes the fix is not yet available; you can follow our blog (http://blog.jetbrains.com/webstorm/) to be notified when it's announced

Hello Elena,

I hope all is well. I assume this build has the fix for my problem? Please confirm. Thanks.

WebStorm 2017.3.3 is now available

Yes, exactly. See release notes (https://confluence.jetbrains.com/display/WI/WebStorm+173.4301.22+Release+Notes) - https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WEB-30438 is listed there

Unfortunately, I tried the latest build and I still cannot run the debugger. I am getting the same error. WAS THIS CODE TESTED?

/usr/local/Cellar/node/7.4.0/bin/node --debug-brk=59778 --expose_debug_as=v8debug /Applications/WebStorm.app/Contents/plugins/JavaScriptDebugger/proxy/launcher.js --port=8081 --sourcesStoragePath=/Users/farshidi/src/rn51InnovaMobile/.tmp/reactNativeBuild
Debugger listening on 127.0.0.1:59778

I wonder why --debug-brk=4471 --expose_debug_as=v8debug are used for debugging..what Debugger process is chosen in Run configuration? Can you attach screenshot?

Any update? 

Please change Debugger process to 'Chrome' - 'Node' doesn't work currently (https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WEB-29972)

Ok. Thanks. When would the "Node' version work?  What is the expected time of release for that fix? 

Thanks,

Farshid

there is no ETA for this fix. What's wrong with using Chrome instead?

I find the "Node' version much smoother. I look forward to your announcement on the release date for the 'Node' version. Meanwhile, I continue with the Chrome version. 

Once again, thanks for your support.

Take care, 

Farshid

I am,definitley, looking forward to the 'Node' version of the debugger. I found the 'Chrome' version very cumbersome and unstable to use so far. I would appreciate your kind attention to this matter and have your team release the 'Node' version soon. Thanks a lot. 

Hello Elena,

I hope allis well. I was wondering if you have any update on the 'Node' version of this release. What is the estimated release date?

Thanks,

Farshid

I'm fine, thank you:) Hope all is good with you.
