Hermes experimental debugger does not open on iOS with custom build configurations #43185
Description
Description
I have an iOS build configuration Staging.Debug that is a copy of Debug. The experimental debugger fails to launch when running this build configuration via:
react-native start --experimental-debugger
and
react-native run-ios --mode Staging.Debug
Output from metro:
info Launching JS debugger (experimental)...
warn No compatible apps connected. JavaScript debugging can only be used with the Hermes engine.
I've confirmed that the app is using Hermes:
The debugger launches properly when doing:
react-native run-ios --mode Debug
I did a little digging and see there is a check for the Debug configuration here and here, but I'm not sure if relevant.
Staging.Debug was created by copying Debug following these instructions. I would like to debug Staging.Debug because I need certain configuration for my staging app.
Steps to reproduce
git clone git@github.com:sliptype/RNRepro1.gityarn i && pod install --project-directory=iosyarn start- In another shell
yarn ios - Launch debug menu with
CMD + Dor Device > Shake - Press Open Debugger

Same issue while using custom configuration (Debug-QAT) with custom Scheme (QAT) but it's working as expected with Debug configuration.
