Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in a Rails controller's #create action with binding.break, using the Ruby 3.3.0, Rails 7.1.2, and debug 1.9.1 versions reported. Trace the debugger's request lifecycle and verify that the breakpoint stops execution on the first and every subsequent request without restarting the server.

Hi, I am not sure if this is a bug or I am missing anything. I have try to search around but to no avail.

Issue

I have a Rails app with a controller, I try to put binding.break in the #create action. The code stops for the very first request. However, for second request onward, the code just doesn't stop and I have to restart the server for it to stop again.

def create
  binding.break
  # some actions
end
