I'm on Linux doing web design on a C# .net MVC razor project. I've spent the last week trying to get everything set up to work in either VSCode but I keep running into problems running/debugging the code and I can't find good support articles that
give clear instructions on how to set this up. I've followed the instructions on several blogs and on the MS site as well but no dice.
Here's where I'm at: I go to the debug tab, click the sprocket with the orange dot on it. I pick .net core and it brings up the lanuch.json file. As far as I can tell the defaults are fine so I go back and try to run the code by clicking the
green arrow. I get an error that says no task runner configured. I click configure task runner and choose .net core. I get a tasks.json file which again looks fine to me with the defaults. I click run button again and I get an error
that says the prelaunchtask 'build' terminated with exit code 1. If I click debug anyway I get an error that says run 'Debug: download .net core debugger' in the command palette or open a .net project directory to download the .NET... (can't read the
rest). So I do as it says and try to download the .net core debugger and I get an error that says Error while installing .net core debugger. When I click view log, it is empty (not very helpful :()
So I delete the two json files I created and try again. This time choosing C# Mono and again, I get a json file that looks happy and nice to me. Try again but that gives an error that there is no .exe file so seems like it's not the right
choice. I'd really appreciate some help getting this set up.
