MonoTouch debugger never connects to app

Question

I have an issue where the MonoDevelop debugger refuses to connect to the simulator. MonoDevelop pops a box saying \"Waiting for debugger to connect on 127.0.0.1:10000...\" b

Answer 1

I had to shut down my device and reboot.

Answer 2

I have the same problem since few days. The "waiting for debugger to connect" message remains displayed and it is thus impossible to debug the application. In my case, it seems that my Settings file (Settings.bundle) enters in conflict with the debug settings.

In my app's settings, I don't have anymore the debug settings displayed, only my own settings like app version number, ... It is happening both on simulator and device.

The first times I got this issues, my workaround was to add a new project in my solution, set up as startup project and then run it. The debugger was responding! Then, I did a clean build, changed again the startup project and the debugger was working with my app. In the app's settings, the debugger settings was displayed again!

However, I got again this problem today and tried multiple times the workaround with no success....

--- EDIT ----

When deleting the Settings.bundle file, the debugger is working fine
