Visual Studio Code Python Timeout waiting for debugger connection

Open the launch.json file and add the following configuration:

{
    "name": "Python: Debug Console",
    "type": "python",
    "request": "launch",
    "program": "${file}",
    "console": "internalConsole"
}

When you specify none internalConsole for the console, it will run the debugger in the debugger console instead of running in the internal or external terminal.
