pycharm debugger console can't change the value of a variable

I'm using Pycharm community 2019.2.3 and its console in the debugger stopped changing the values of the variables for me.

I've added a print screen of a simple code in which I'm stopping in a breakpoint in line 7. Then I evaluate (Alt Shift E) lines 7 and 8 and the screen prints the new value 'haim'. Afterward, I'm evaluating only line 8 and the value of name comes back to be 'alon' even though I didn't change it.

enter image description here

Thanks, Alon

I ran into exactly the same thing today with 2019.2 Professional. It had been working fine, and then out of the blue I could no longer change the values of variables in the debugging console.

Reverting back to 2019.1 fixed it for me.

If you're on Ubuntu and using snap to install:

sudo snap refresh pycharm-professional --channel=2019.1/stable --classic
