Prefect Community

Hi all, I’ve just upgraded to Prefect 3. I’ve spun up a brand new environment, upgraded to Python  3.11.9, but no matter what I do, I am unable to “simply” run the flows as I used to. I guess this is now what is called the ephemeral server, but I keep running into `RuntimeError: Timed out while attempting to connect to ephemeral Prefect API server.`

Even a minimal example doesn’t work:
```from prefect import flow

@flow
def test():
    print("Hello")

test()```

I am on 2GHz Quad Core i5, with 16 GB memory…

that above example should work. can you give logs that you're seeing when you hit a timeout?

Not much more than the above. There is one line saying the server is starting, then the code hits the error above.

I now figured out the following: I *am* able to run the flow when manually executing it in the environment. It seems the issue is with `debugpy` when triggering from the VS Code debugger… Weird because it always worked before. Not sure what the issue is.
