Pycharm pydev debugger: process is connecting forever

Question

/usr/local/Cellar/python3/3.6.1/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6/bin/python3.6 "/Applications/PyCharm CE.app/Contents/helpers/pydev/pydevd.py" --multiproc --qt-support=auto --client 127.0.0.1 --port 55819 --file "/Applications/PyCharm CE.app/Contents/helpers/pycharm/_jb_unittest_runner.py" --target test_output.TestMispOutputBot.test_event

pydev debugger: process 3170 is connecting

No output for 10 minutes before I give up and kill the process.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Applications/PyCharm CE.app/Contents/helpers/pydev/pydevd.py", line 1599, in <module>
    globals = debugger.run(setup['file'], None, None, is_module)
  File "/Applications/PyCharm CE.app/Contents/helpers/pydev/pydevd.py", line 994, in run
    time.sleep(0.1)  # busy wait until we receive run command
KeyboardInterrupt

I tried everything I found regarding that error message:

• Cleared all breakpoints (recommended here and here)
• Deleted the .idea folder (recommended here and here)
• Disabled the options add content roots and add source roots to PYTHONPATH (recommended here)

Any ideas?

Solved the issue by updating pyqt. If you use anaconda, please try:

conda install -c anaconda pyqt
