I have a .net core 2.1 api behind an nginx reverse proxy that I set up using docker compose in visual studio. When running, the api is reachable (I have a health check controller I can call to verify) but I can't debug. It looks as if my solution is not running after building. But my containers are up and reachable. I am using visual studio 2019.
This is my folder structure:
- ...
- RestApi (project folder folder)
- Dockerfile
- docker-compose.yml
- ReverseProxy (folder)
- Dockerfile
- nginx.conf
- ...
these are the files (from top to bottom in folder structure):
Dockerfile (for the api):
#See https://aka.ms/containerfastmode to understand how Visual Studio uses this Dockerfile to build your images for faster debugging.

}
}
}
When running docker-compose through visual studio the docker containers are created correctly but I can't debug and no browser screen is launched. I get no errors while building or running. If you need extra information please ask.
