Research direction
Start by reproducing the debugger launch with both profileDir and profile-name settings, then inspect the console output around the Firefox profile error and ECONNREFUSED connection. Done means the launch configuration connects successfully and the debugging session remains active.

Description
when trying to launch the debugger, after a while I get the message Your Firefox profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible. and then the message Error launching configuration \n connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:6000
I first tried to specify the profile directory via profileDir but got the same message. Then I try to specify the name of the profile but I get this message in the console
Debugging session ended unexpectedly
Debugging ended
Could you help me how to solve this behavior?
