Using the builtin pycharm debugger with odoo

[MCUxDaredevil]

I'm using the plugin's Odoo run configuration and it runs perfectly in normal mode
But when I run it in debug mode, basically just pressing the debug button instead of run, it does show that it connected with pydev debugger
But it completely ignores any breakpoints I set on the IDE gutter, and does nothing if I manually try to pause it
At best if I press pause, after 5-10 seconds it might just pause at the run function of threaded server
Am I missing something? Any configuration steps maybe?

I have both pydevd-odoo (1.2.2) and pydevd-pycharm (251.25410.24) installed
My Pycharm version is 2025.1 (build 251.25410.24)
Running Odoo 18.0

Hello @MCUxDaredevil ,

I just tested and the debugging is still working fine:

Anyway, you should not install pydevd-pycharm because PyCharm already bundles it:

https://pypi.org/project/pydevd-pycharm/#description

This is what it looks like for me. It should stop at those error logs but instead it just keeps going

@MCUxDaredevil ,

Do you still encounter the issue even after uninstalling pydevd-pycharm?

Hi, I've got it to work by removing the "Gevent Compatible" flag in pycharm debugger settings
I'm not exactly sure why it works, but for now seems to do the trick

Seemingly when Gevent compatible is on, it ignores breakpoints that are on lines being run in threads
It will work on model field definitions but not on any other functions/actions that are defined
