Tizen development in Visual Studio stuck with "Initializing Debugger" dialog

Question

I I started a new TizenWearableApp in VS 2019, started the Tizen-Emulator and hit run.

The output from Tizen shows the successful build and that the app is signed with Default Certificates. After that, the last printed line is the full path to the .tpk file and a Microsoft Visual Studio Dialog with "Initializing Debugger"... stuck state screenshot -> https://i.sstatic.net/di2YM.jpg

After that nothing more happens. I can press the cancle button and can then see in the Output the following which didn´t help me:

: <<< Start debugging "org.tizen.example.TizenWearableAppV4" >>>
: Try to terminate running application: org.tizen.example.TizenWearableAppV4

I hope anybody can help me to fix that problem (i got it already working a few month back on this machine).

Thanks in advance.

Here is the page that helped me. I had the same problem but don't want to build from tizen.bat every time. The solution in the above document that worked for me was to close Visual Studio and open the *.csproj file in my solution then add the following replacing with the directory of the certificates I created and my passwords:

<PropertyGroup>
 <AuthorPath>author_test.p12</AuthorPath>
 <AuthorPass>author_test</AuthorPass>
 <DistributorPath>tizen-distributor-signer.p12</DistributorPath>
 <DistributorPass>tizenpkcs12passfordsigner</DistributorPass>
</PropertyGroup>

Just put it below any other Property Group tags. Open Visual Studio again and it should build using the certificate.

Answer 2

Faced same. The reason was in certificate signed with wrong distributor - for physical devices (not emulated) you need Samsung distributor certificate. You need to do:

1. Install Samsung Certificate Extension in Tizen package manager
2. Open Certificate manager
3. Run certificate profile wizard and select Samsung option
4. Follow wizard
