Pycharm Debugging - ImportError: No module named plugin

[Zachary Trabookis]

So I've downloaded devstack `open-release/ficus.3` and I following directions https://openedx.atlassian.net/wiki/display/OpenDev/Working+with+devstack+and+PyCharm to run the Pycharm debugger against the LMS. For some reason I keep getting this error below. I cleared the /Users/{USERNAME}/Library/Caches/PyCharm2017.1/ directory and restarted Pycharm. I started a new project and even recreated the project interpreter. I see the remote files and I can even view the xblock.plugin source files in the Pycharm cache locally so all seems well.

Can you help me figure out how to debug the LMS using Pycharm?

Also I wasn't sure why I needed to include this additional path mapping.

https://openedx.atlassian.net/wiki/display/OpenDev/Working+with+devstack+and+PyCharm

Create Debug Configuration for LMS

Click the "+" button again to add a mapping for the "/edx/src" directory

• Specify the full path to "edx/src", e.g. "/Users/[username]/devstack/src"
• Specify "/edx/src" for "Remote path"

Andy and Robert,

Here is my Pycharm configuration. I have local path for devstack at /Users/zacharytrabookis/Dev/EducateWorkforce/Repos/open-edx/devstack

This is my local instance running LMS using paver devstack lms command.

I forgot to mention that I also have a Tools > Deployment > Configuration setup too. This allows for SFTP access to the remote files say if I wanted to modify the /edx/app/edxapp/lms.env.json file within Pycharm. That's the only major one off thing from the https://openedx.atlassian.net/wiki/display/OpenDev/Working+with+devstack+and+PyCharm that I forgot to mention.

I noticed that I had ./edx-platform/common/lib/xmodule/xmodule as another source directory for the project. I think this was an extra folder. Removing it didn't seem to remove my error though.

When setting up the Project Interpreter (remote) I used the following configuration rather than setting a password for the edxapp account. I'm actually using ~edxapp/.ssh/authorized_keys file and authentication seems to work just fine with the Key pair (OpenSSH).

Key pair (OpenSSH)" and specify the location of your private key file (/Users/your_user_name/.ssh/id_rsa). This may be necessary with newer versions of MacOS. In this case you will need to append your public key (/Users/your_user_name/.ssh/id_rsa.pub) to the ~edxapp/.ssh/authorized_keys2

I cannot read. It looks like we wanted to Deselect the following in the run/debug LMS configuration. I had those selected. This resolved my issue. Thanks edX team :)

Slack Update: https://openedx.slack.com/archives/C48CG81N0/p1493319210360863

• Deselect "Add content roots to PYTHONPATH".
• Deselect "Add source roots to PYTHONPATH".
