SERVER CONSOLE DEBUG: GDBServerConsole: onBackendConnect: gdb-server program client error Error: read ECONNRESET

[Emile]

Hi!

I'm developing a project on visual studio with ncs sdk V1.8.0. For a while, I was able to debug my project with no problem. But out of the blue, I'm no longer able to debug my project. I get the following error:

[2022-08-23T15:57:09.597Z] SERVER CONSOLE DEBUG: GDBServerConsole: onBackendConnect: gdb-server program client error Error: read ECONNRESET

There is the complete log: 

[2022-08-23T15:57:09.458Z] SERVER CONSOLE DEBUG: onBackendConnect: gdb-server session connected. You can switch to "DEBUG CONSOLE" to see GDB interactions.
