misleading error message: Unable to determine path to debugger. Please specify the "MIDebuggerPath" option.

This is a problem I've often seen, even on the forum here where people do not use your debugger because the errors are when launching the debugger are misleading thus they cannot aachieve simple use. Here this error should encourage the user to check if their debugger is installed instead.

Here in C/CPP this problem can be very often solved by an apt install gdb or the installation of the cpp gdb extenson.
