Pycharm-Execution does not stop at breakpoints during debugging

Question

I am trying to debug python code in Pycharm. I assign a break-point on a line using ctr+F8 and then debug using the debug icon on top right corner.

However the execution does not stop at the breakpoint and whole code is executed. I am trying to stop the execution at breakpoint and then execute the code line by line while checking the variable values.

What possibly I am doing wrong? It does not work on other code files which I created for checking.

Are you sure that your code reachs the breakpoint? is your code a python code or template code (like Javascript or HTML)? — Giordano, Mar 09 '17 at 10:53
The code is python code. it reaches the break point since whole code is executed at once — Stelios, Mar 09 '17 at 11:02
can you edit your question adding the snippet code and the line where you put the breakpoint? Can you see the red circle on the left of instruction? — Giordano, Mar 09 '17 at 11:05
Can you walk through the steps in [this video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJtWxm12Eo0) to see if you have problems with the code and process it shows? — Paul Everitt, Mar 09 '17 at 12:38
Did you select "manage.py" when debugging? Or go to manage.py then right click and click "Debug manage". — Isanka Wijerathne, Jul 18 '17 at 07:38

See the answers in this issue Unable to debug in pycharm with pytest. For me it was deleting the __pycache__ directories because I had copies the project over from a different computer.

In order to debug (and stop at a breakpoint) you need to use Run > Debug (Alt+Shift+F9), not Run > Run (Alt+Shift+F10).
