Why do I get error 'File does not contain a valid CIL image' when debugging from Visual Studio Code editor?

I'm running Visual Studio Code on Max OS X and constantly seeing this error. Works fine when I run directly from Terminal using dnx .run

Any suggestions on how I can fix this?

 Error Trace from Terminal   'mono' --debug  
 --debugger-agent=transport=dt_socket,server=y,address=127.0.0.1:57332  
 'Program.cs' Cannot open assembly 'Program.cs': File does not contain
 a valid CIL image.

What version of Visual Studio? What version of Mac OS X? – alfakini
Looks like you made some changes to the project configuration that changed what's being run when you start the project. It shouldn't be running Program.cs. – Luaan
I'm voting to close this question as off-topic because it is about a testing build of a product with many known/unknown issues. The discussion will be rather useless once a new build is shipped. – Lex Li

ASP.NET 5 is explicitly stated by Microsoft as not yet supported, and there are other debugging limitations,

So wait, wait, wait.
