Is there a way to debug in VS Code using the remote SSH extension?

Tooling VS Code

I am on a Linux cluster and the details of the SSH plugin can be found here.

After configuring my launch.json file, and then “Run” → “Start Debugging”, it loads for a bit (looping blue bar), but then stops and nothing happens.

If I instead “Debug file in new process”, I get:
Cannot read properties of undefined (reading ‘file’).

Here is my .json:

{
    "version": "0.2.0",
    "configurations": [
        {
            "address": "hpc.haastech.org",
            "localRoot": "/home/jakewren/conwel/cleaning",
            "name": "Attach to Remote",
            "port": 22,
            "remoteRoot": "/home/jakewren/conwel/cleaning",
            "request": "attach",
            "skipFiles": [
                "<node_internals>/**"
            ],
            "type": "node"
        }
    ]
}

Also, I can run with out any problems.
Here is my jobscript:

#!/usr/bin/bash

#BSUB -n 1
#BSUB -e /home/jakewren/conwel/cleaning/%J.err
#BSUB -o /home/jakewren/conwel/cleaning/%J.out

cd /home/jakewren/conwel/cleaning
/apps/src/julia-1.8.5/bin/julia sc_clean.jl

And from the command line:
bsub <run_sc_clean.sh

Did you ever found a solution? I have a similar configuration (i.e. remote cluster, using remote-ssh in VS Code). When I try to debug, it seems to run endlessly without stopping (e.g. waited for 10-15 minutes).

Thanks!
