Do you see "Couldn't activate file '...' for debugging; continuing
without it." message? If not, you have probably not specified
"editor.autoactivate = true" in the right place. It needs to be in
cfg/user.lua.
You can always see if the setting is active if you type
"ide.config.editor.autoactivate" in the local console window. It
should return "true". You can change it using the console too. Set it
to true by running "ide.config.editor.autoactivate=true" there and see
if it helps.
Paul.
