title: Debugging Stopped working for GoLang in VSCode on Mac Sequioa

<p>If you've found that debugging go programs on mac has suddenly stopped working, try upgrading your go runtime - it seems that an xcode change may have caused some instability in delve with the upgrade to sequioa. Golang 1.22.3 no longer works properly on my machine but 1.23+ seems to be ok (see <a href="https://github.com/golang/vscode-go/issues/3539#issuecomment-2357699410">this thread</a>).</p>
<br />
I noticed this problem when running a VSCode debug session and the system did not respect any of my breakpoints. When I stopped to carefully examine the output I saw a warning message:
<pre>
  Warning: no debug info found, some functionality will be missing such as stack traces and variable evaluation.
  <br />
</pre>
<p>The solution was simply to run</p>
<pre>
  brew upgrade golang
  <br />
</pre>
<p>Or of course if you installed golang from a .pkg from the website you can manually upgrade that way too.</p>
<p>
  Happy coding!
