My webstorm suddenly stopped debugging in Chrome. The port and settings are correct, or atlest they appear to me. This was working until a few days back but stopped working today. I tried to retrace any changes to machine, but none of that would have impacted.
It appears that the specified port is somehow blocked on my machine because after I run my project it error's out with following error:
Naturally I checked fiddler and the following error pops out
271 502 HTTP 127.0.0.1:63342 /browserConnection/buildInfo 512 no-cache, must-revalidate text/html; charset=UTF-8 chrome:18024
GET /browserConnection/buildInfo HTTP/1.1
[Fiddler] The connection to '127.0.0.1' failed.
Error: ConnectionRefused (0x274d).
System.Net.Sockets.SocketException No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 127.0.0.1:63342
Anyone got an idea what's happing because I tried everything I could think of.
I solved it by setting the debugging port 8090 and disable external connections checkbox
