I created a new JavaScript Debug configuration. Firefox is the first browser in the list and the default browser is set to system default which is Firefox too. I've also tried to use first in list as default which also is Firefox. I'm on Ubuntu 14.04 and WebStorm 2016.1.1.
When I now trigger the debugging via the little bug icon I get the following error message:
"Cannot run program "google-chrome": error=2, No such file or directory"
I thought okay, might be a bug. I removed all browsers but Firefox from the WebStorm settings and tried again. Didn't work, all the default browsers just reappeared after a restart of the IDE and the error from above kept popping up.
Any advice to force WebStorm to use Firefox?
Hold Ctrl+Shift and click this URL link. WebStorm starts a debugging session with an automatically generated configuration of the type JavaScript Debug.
Go to the "Sources" tab. At the top right hand side, toggle the button that looks like the pause symbol surrounded by a hexagon (button on the far right) until the color of the circle turns black to turn it off. If the pause symbol isn't blue it may be that you've accidentally marked a line for debugging inspection.
To start debugging, hold Ctrl+Shift and click the link. WebStorm starts a debugging session with an automatically generated Attach to Node. js/Chrome configuration.
JavaScript debugger in WebStorm works only with Google Chrome browser together with JetBrains IDE Support extension.
