How to setup Go debugging in intellij?
Answered
Hi,
I've got a fairly basic Go project in Intellij, which I can run and "debug". But when I'm running it in debug mode it never hits any breakpoints, it doesn't show any errors either, so how do I proceed? Or is debugging not supported in IntelliJ for Go?

Hi,
Could you please upload IDE logs to http://uploads.jetbrains.com/ and provide its name?
I'll take a look.

Hi,
Thanks. I see that you're using an older version of IntelliJ IDEA. Could you please update it to the latest release (Help | Check for Updates)?
If you can't, please, enable all default plugins (File | Settings | Plugins | Installed) and try to reproduce the issue again.
Hi,
I've upgraded to 2021.1 but no change. Still does nothing.
Hi,
Thanks. Could you please upload logs from the new version of IntelliJ IDEA with additional logging:
1. Add #com.goide.dlv.DlvVm in Help | Diagnostic Tools | Debug Log Settings...
2. Restart the IDE.
3. Reproduce the problem.
4. Upload logs http://uploads.jetbrains.com/ and provide its name.

Hi,
I see in the logs that breakpoints are set correctly and without errors.
Does it work if you enable bundled plugins (File | Settings | Plugins | Installed)? If not, please, provide a screenshot of your breakpoint and where you set it.
Hi,
I've narrowed down the problem: When I uninstall and reinstall the bundled Go plugin, debugging will work for some time, then break itself again.
Hi,
Could you please attach a piece of information from the previous message?
This is the log after the go plugin uninstall and reinstall: Upload id: 2021_04_29_XQDoz9G3q9jxFfZK (file: idea.log)
Debugging works now, although I have to unset and reset the breakpoints sometimes.
Do you see any errors or warnings if you hover over to an unresponsive breakpoint?
