    Some time ago, I can use monodevelop debug with unity4.2.

    However, a few days ago, it suddenly out of control.

    when I use "Run->Attach to Process", it fail and show the message something like that

    "Could not connect to the debugger."

    I have close other running program.

    I delete the unity4.2 and monodevelop.

    I install unity4.3 and monodevelop.

    But it still fail.

    Is anyone can help me?

    Thank you

    ken.

    Hello.

    [Preference / External Tools / Editor Attaching] must be enabled.

    Please check.

    Try removing all breakpoints before performing "Attach to process...".

    Worked for me.

    I had the same problem and it drove me nuts.

    Mavina, I could kiss you! This totally sorted it for me, and it's been bothering me for *months*! Thanks!

    I started having the problem again. This time deleting all breakpoints did not fix it. After several days of trying everything (including complete reinstall of Unity - twice), I looked at my antivirus program (I am using ZoneAlarm Extreme).

    I then removed both Unity and MonoDevelop completely from the Application Control Setting of ZoneAlarm and that did the trick.

    Why the hell is there no correct message in mono develop referring to this simple solution? I wasted two hours of my life because of "Could not connect to the debugger." this is an impertinence. The developers who did this are incompetent.
