PyCharm hangs on "Loading Packages List" for ages when connected to network
I am working on a slow internet network. When I tried to run python in the IDE, I can see the launch command in the console and PyCharm start showing the bar saying "Loading Packages List" and it never continues (or may be after 15 minutes or).
As soon as I pull out my network ethernet cable, the script starts inmediately
So no I am forced to take out the network cable everytime I want to run my script. This is unworkable!
Is there a way to make pycharm think I have a network connection. Or just to pass this 'loading packages list' message. Btw, also under settigs - > Project Interpreter the package list is not loaded, while as soon as a take out the plug, it shows up
Also, I am running Pycharm 2017.1 with Anaconda installed locally on my harddrive. Without network it is extremely fast
Hopefully you can provide a fix

Hi there,
You said that you see the message in the status bar every time you try to launch a run configuration from PyCharm, right? But normally it's displayed only in Settings | Project interpreter while we're fetching the latest versions of packages installed from PyPI. Would you mind attaching a screenshot of the IDE window when it happens?
