[BUG] A valid browser not found when debugging from local DevContainer

[FBoucher]

Describe the Issue

Debugging a web app in local DevContainer gives errors and does not allow for debugging.

I had the same experience on a Windows 11 and Ubuntu 22.04.
It works fine when running locally (Edge is installed).
When I re-open in a devContainer I have the same "A valid browser is not installed." message.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Create a new blazor wasm
2. reopen in a DEvContainer

devcontainer.json

{
    "name": "C# (.NET) and MySQL",
    "dockerComposeFile": "docker-compose.yml",
    "service": "devbox",
    "workspaceFolder": "/workspaces/${localWorkspaceFolderBasename}"
	, "customizations": {
		"vscode": {
			"extensions": [
				"ms-dotnettools.csharp",
				"ms-dotnettools.csdevkit",
				"ms-dotnettools.blazorwasm-companion",
				"eamodio.gitlens"
			]
		}
	}
	, "forwardPorts": [5000, 5001, 3306]
	, "portsAttributes": {
			"5001": {
				"protocol": "https"
			}
	}
	, "remoteUser": "root"
}

dockerfile

FROM mcr.microsoft.com/devcontainers/dotnet:8.0

Expected Behavior

Debug launches with the app opening in the browser

@FBoucher I don't think this is a dev kit issue, but rather needing dependencies in the devcontainer you are building to satisfy the scenarios.

@WardenGnaw I'm not sure if these errors are coming from vsdbg or the companion. In 'normal' web debug even in a devcontainer int launches the host browser and tunnels. In wasm, it seems that assumption is not made?

@timheuer This error is from the C# Extension. Specifically https://github.com/dotnet/vscode-csharp/blob/e5c352d80af74199b832404cfe2b8e93809e84bf/src/razor/src/blazorDebug/blazorDebugConfigurationProvider.ts#L182

@phil-allen-msft Does Blazor Debugging work with dev containers?

[FBoucher]

Oh! I didn't realize it could be that! Looking forward knowing if WASM is supported

[FBoucher]

@phil-allen-msft is it supported?

I am also getting these error messages. I get them when I try to use the C# DevKit and debug on a Blazor project that includes wasm (wasm or auto). If the project does not include wasm, then the devkit debug works fine. If the project does include wasm, I discovered I could just create the launch and task entries and then I can debug. I was doing this with Codespaces.

Not sure if this helps but thought I would share.

I see these errors, too, basically the same setup. Dev container, blazor.
