Visual Studio Code Ubuntu aspnet core 2 container debugging

I googled and looked on stackoverflow but couldn't find a solution.

Setup:

Host OS: Ubuntu

ASPNet Core 2

Dotnet 2.0

I have two containers, one container for MySQL and other for dotnet core. I was able to run it without installing CLR Debugger. After installing CLR debugger in one container, I am trying to use Visual Studio Code to debug aspnet core 2 app running in that container. I am getting following error:

"The pipe program 'bash' exited unexpectedly."

Only option is to "open Launch.json" and only bash command in launch.json is:

        "pipeTransport": {            
            "pipeProgram": "/bin/bash",            
            "pipeCwd": "${workspaceRoot}",            
            "pipeArgs": ["-c",            
                "docker exec -i devexamapp_debug_1 /clrdbg/clrdbg --interpreter=mi"],
            "debuggerPath": "/vsdbg/vsdbg"

Debug console shows following:

Starting: "/bin/bash" -c "docker exec -i devexamapp_debug_1 /clrdbg/clrdbg --interpreter=mi" "/vsdbg/vsdbg --interpreter=vscode"

If I run "/bin/bash" -c "docker exec -i devexamapp_debug_1 /clrdbg/clrdbg --interpreter=mi" "/vsdbg/vsdbg --interpreter=vscode" in a console window then it works 100% fine withotu any error.

What am I missing? Any help?

Thanks

You need to have the debugger installed in your Docker image. You can do the same by adding below to your dockerfile

WORKDIR /vsdbg 
RUN curl -SL https://aka.ms/getvsdbgsh | bash /dev/stdin -v latest -l /vsdbg

Then you need to updated the pipeTransport in launch.json as below

"pipeTransport": { 
   "pipeProgram": "docker", 
   "pipeCwd": "${workspaceRoot}", 
   "pipeArgs": ["exec -i devexamapp_debug_1"], 
   "debuggerPath": "/vsdbg/vsdbg", 
   "quoteArgs": false 
}
