IntelliJ IDEA go-lang-idea-plugin Alpha debugging under Ubuntu

I am trying to debug Go 1.4 using IntelliJ Idea 14.0.2 and the current go-lang-idea-plugin alpha 0.9.16-dev-0.9.16-alpha.9 from http://github-intellij-plugin.appspot.com/go-lang-plugin-org/go-lang-idea-plugin/alpha.xml . As mentioned in https://github.com/go-lang-plugin-org/go-lang-idea-plugin/pull/588 this should work.

The plugin is working fine for running "Hello world", but my "Debug"-Button is greyed out. I already updated gdb to version 6.8.1, versions 6.8 and 6.7.7 did not work either. This is my debug configuration : Debug config

What am I missing? Do I need a specific gdb version or is the problem somewhere else? Or is it because I am using Go 1.4?

The solution was :

1) Go to "Edit configuration" => "Run"

2) Uncheck "Build before run"

3) Check "Build before run"

4) Check "Enable debugging" (was greyed out before toggling "Build before run" twice).

So it was a strange UI issue.
