I am having this same issue with the debugger. I’m using the latest build 2682 and latest version of Corona Editor, 1.5.1, and the latest version of Sublime 3, OSX.
I tried removing spaces from path, but still getting the same error. Here is the path that the console is Sublime 3 shows:
~/Dropbox/Apps/projects/NewApps
I am on a Mac, so it could be the “Macintosh HD” space, but I’d rather not mess with that…
I think this is probably unrelated, but weird things happen when, in Sublime, I “Run Project” while a .lua file is active which is in a subdirectory relative to main.lua. The game launches, but I get unexpected behavior, such as nil object errors. If I run the exact same project while main.lua is active, everything works fine. If I move the file to the same directory as main.lua, everything works fine.
There are no spaces in the subdirectory’s name, or in any of the .lua filenames.
I can’t believe more people aren’t reporting problems with the debugger? I’ve tried it on both Windows and Mac, even with sample projects, and it is very problematic.
I had the same problem.
And then I’ve realized the path where my main.lua was located was “C:\EMA\Corona Projects\Martinique” (in a windows OS).
I’ve changed to “C:\EMA\CoronaProjects\Martinique” removing the space between Corona and Projects.
And then I had no more the “Unexpected response from Simulator” error.
Make sure to avoid any space in the complete path. This worked for me.

I removed all spaces from my path and was finally able to debug.
Ok, I can debug, but then it hangs and I have to restart Sublime Text 3.
Had exactly the same issue with Corona on a XP VM using the latest build (daily build of 2015-12-12). Fixed the path and it works.
Hello, I have the same problems I read above.
My situation is like this:
Brand new installation of Sublime Text 2 (
Loaded the main.lua file that without the debugger just run fine.
As soon as I issue the command Corona Editor -> Corona Debugger -> Run
I receive this pop up screen from Sublime:
Unexpected Response from Simulator:
202 Paused /Users/Home/Documents/
Corona SDK Projects/Prova 2/main.lua 8
Check Console for error messages (OK Button)
Note: ‘Prova 2’ is the name of the project and in line 8 there is this statement:
local scene = composer.newScene()
When I press the OK and I look to the console:

Of course I’m not able to understand what’s going on.
So I press OK and … it hangs everything in the ‘page 1’ module that is called from main.lua with the following messages on the console and in which I toggled a breakpoint
2015-09-13 18:50:41.122 set_breakpoint(/Users/Home/Documents/Corona SDK Projects/Prova 2/page1.lua,15)

After this message the Simulator hangs completely with a coloured rounded icon that continue spinning and it cannot be stopped with cmd-W as usual.
I have to use ‘force quit’ using the apple menu or otherwise I have to quite Sublime Text that it quits Simulator.
In anycase the environment is very unstable.
What I described above is not always happening.It depends on how you quit the applications. It seems to me that something continue to be in memory because when I quit Sublime and I reopen it keeps in the modules the breakpoints I set before quitting that seems strange to me as I think it should keep the breakpoints only for the session of debugging.
If I redo the whole sequence sometime I have ‘stack’ tab in Sublime Text 2 that keeps saying ‘Running…’ but never stops in the breakpoints I have set.
Thanks for any suggestion you can give me.

I have the same problem with version 1.5.1. There is a space in the path but this shouldn’t be a problem.
Agreed, it shouldn’t be a problem but it is in 1.5.1 … a fix will be coming soon.
