"Unverified breakpoint" in Visual Studio Code with Chrome Debugger extension

I am trying to debug my Typescript code in Visual Studio Code, using the Chrome Debugger extension, but I am getting the "Unverified breakpoint" message on my breakpoint, and execution does not stop on my breakpoint.

Here is my launch.json file:

{
 linkid=830387
 "version": "0.2.0",
 "configurations": [
 {
 "type": "chrome",
 "request": "launch",
 "name": "Launch Chrome against localhost",
 "url": "http://localhost:4200",
 "sourceMaps": true,
 "webRoot": "${workspaceFolder}"
 }
 ]
}

App Version:

Visual Studio Code: 1.25.1
Chrome: 67.0.3396.99

Any other suggestions on how I can solve this issue?

It's true for my case as well. I set breakpoints in files called after index.js which is my entry js file and they never get hit. But I set breakpoints at functions in index.js first and it definitely stops there, then I set breakpoints for other files, they stop as well and seems like activated after index.js.

as long as you trigger the route that loads the module into the browser with the related breakpoints in vscode it should work

How to Tag

A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.

complete the sentence: my question is about...
use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
favor using existing popular tags
read the descriptions that appear below the tag

If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:

combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. python-3.x), up to a maximum of 35 characters
creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
